Mesothelioma Attorney in Myrtle Beach

First things first, take care of your health. You should seek the best medical treatment you can. Secondly, start documenting everything related to your diagnosis and potential asbestos exposure. Then, as soon as you are able, contact Morgan and Morgan to have your case reviewed by a mesothelioma expert.

You have the right to seek compensation if your mesothelioma is linked to asbestos exposure, especially due to someone else's negligence. This can include filing a lawsuit against responsible parties, claiming workers' compensation, or applying to asbestos trust funds, depending on your exposure history.

Workers' compensation can help, but it's just like a drop of ink in the ocean compared to what you need to sustain your treatment and other expenses. Also, keep in mind that while workers' comp might cover medical expenses and lost wages, it may not fully address things like pain and suffering or future treatment costs. That's why you need someone with experience handling these cases to maximize your claim.

Besides your employer (if you were exposed to asbestos at your place of employment), you might be able to file claims against manufacturers of asbestos-containing products, property owners, or asbestos trust funds. It all depends on how you were exposed to this harmful material. 

Your medical records confirming your mesothelioma diagnosis, evidence of asbestos exposure, and a link between the exposure and your diagnosis are possible proof of asbestos exposure. When you involve a powerful injury firm like Morgan and Morgan, we can help obtain testimonies from occupational experts and medical professionals and also dig into the defendant's past to unravel the truth about your diagnosis and their responsibility.

Yes, if your landlord knew about the asbestos and didn't take proper action to remove it or warn you, you might have a case against them for your exposure and subsequent illness.

Our mesothelioma attorneys work on a contingency fee basis. In other words, we only get paid if we win. 

Compensation for mesothelioma usually goes to the individual diagnosed with the disease. In the case of wrongful death caused by mesothelioma, their family members or the executors of their estate can pursue compensation. 

The journey to initiating a mesothelioma claim starts with a free case evaluation. That will help us determine the viability of your claim, and if it is valid, devise a plan that works for you and your loved ones. Contact us today to get started.
