Mesothelioma Ohio
If you have been diagnosed with mesothelioma in Ohio you may need an experienced lawyer. You may wish to file a claim against the company or companies where previously employed if the dangers of asbestos exposure were not disclosed to you. Asbestos fibers can invade and damage the lining of the lungs, heart and abdomen causing and rare and incurable cancer called mesothelioma. Cancer cells can form and also spread from their original site to other parts of the body sometimes ending in the kidneys or lymph nodes. Most cases of mesothelioma in Ohio begin in the pleura or peritoneum. About 2,000 new cases of mesothelioma are diagnosed in the United States each year but that number is steadily increasing and is estimated to be at 3500 or more by the end of the century. Mesothelioma occurs more often in men than in women and risk increases with age, but this disease can appear in either men or women.
A history of asbestos exposure at work is reported in almost 90 percent of all cases. Asbestos is a mineral that occurs naturally as masses of strong, flexible fibers that can be separated into thin threads and woven and processed at rapid speed. Asbestos has been used to manufacturer everything from drapes to brake linings. If tiny asbestos particles float in the air, especially during the manufacturing process, they may be inhaled or swallowed, and can cause serious health problems including mesothelioma. You may be entitled to compensation. The Maune Raichle law firm has a proven track record of success in mesothelioma Ohio law.
