FAQ

What Causes Mesothelioma?

Mesothelioma is usually caused by exposure to asbestos, a fibrous mineral used in various industries for its heat resistance and durability. Inhaling or ingesting asbestos fibers can lead to the development of mesothelioma as these fibers get lodged in the lining of the lungs, abdomen, or heart.

What Are Some Common Symptoms of Mesothelioma?

This disease might manifest as persistent coughing, shortness of breath, chest or abdominal pain, unexplained weight loss, and fatigue. These symptoms often mimic less serious conditions, leading to delays in diagnosis.

How Long After Asbestos Exposure Do Mesothelioma Symptoms Begin to Show?

Symptoms of mesothelioma typically appear 20 to 50 years after asbestos exposure. As a result, this long latency period makes it challenging to diagnose and link to the initial exposure. That's why you need an attorney with access to powerful legal resources to dig into the details of the case, including the past, to establish the facts about the diagnosis and the origin of the asbestos exposure.

Is There a Cure for Mesothelioma?

Unfortunately, there is no known cure for mesothelioma. However, treatments like surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy can help manage symptoms, improve quality of life, and potentially extend survival.

What Are the Long-Term Effects of Mesothelioma?

This condition can lead to significant health deterioration, chronic pain, difficulty breathing, and a substantial impact on the patient's quality of life. It also poses a significant emotional and financial burden on families, given that these treatments are usually expensive and exhausting.

Who Are Possible Defendants in a Mesothelioma Case?

In the past, lawsuits have been brought against employers, manufacturers of asbestos-containing products, suppliers, and contractors. The bottom line is that any party that negligently exposed you to asbestos can be held liable.
