The Maune Raichle Law Firm

Mesothelioma Attorney

Asbestos has been linked to the vast majority of mesothelioma cancers. Asbestos has a long history of contributing to, and in many cases, being the sole cause of serious diseases. Mesothelioma is one such illness which can be linked directly to asbestos exposure. Because of this direct link, courts the world over have found many employers liable for causing their employees mesothelioma. Because many companies knew more about the effects of asbestos exposure than they shared with their employees, judges often rule that they are legally responsible for many costs corresponding to the treatment of their previous employees. The best way for individuals diagnosed to learn more about the type of legal options available to them is to speak with an experienced mesothelioma attorney.

Asbestos is a banned substance which was used extensively in the HVAC, insulating, fire proofing, and auto industries in the decades leading up to the mid 70's. The use of asbestos was banned because it became obvious that asbestos was responsible for many severe diseases and that exposure to asbestos, especially in the case of workers , would in most cases lead to a decreased quality of life and possible early death. Workers are entitled to compensation for the loss of quality of life and many medical expenses they accrue relating to their asbestos caused illnesses. Even if an individual has not worked for an employer for 40 years, that employer may still be found liable for that employee’s current asbestos related illness.
