Common Causes of Mesothelioma
The leading cause for this cancer is exposure to asbestos, a collection of minerals valued in industries for their heat resistance and insulating properties. Key triggers for mesothelioma involve employment in sectors such as construction, shipbuilding, and manufacturing where asbestos was heavily used.
There's also the risk of exposure when workers carry asbestos particles home on their clothes endangering family members. Furthermore, residing in structures with asbestos containing materials can also result in asbestos exposure.
Potentially Responsible Parties in a Mesothelioma Lawsuit
Different parties can be held accountable for asbestos exposure. These include but are not limited to:
- manufacturers and distributors of products containing asbestos;
- property owners, such, as landlords and real estate developers; or even
- government agencies deemed responsible for regulating the use of asbestos.
What Types of Compensation Can I Pursue?
If you have been diagnosed with mesothelioma due to someone’s negligence, you may be eligible for damages that cover medical expenses for treatments, medications and ongoing care. You might also seek compensation for lost wages if your condition prevents you from working as before.
In certain situations, victims can also claim economic damages for pain and suffering, emotional distress, and a diminished quality of life.
If a loved one dies from this disease, their family can claim compensation for funeral and burial expenses, loss of companionship and support, among other applicable damages.
