Mesothelioma is actually a very rare form of cancer, yet, several
thousand people each year die because of this devastating disease,
caused by exposure to asbestos. The lining of the lungs gets affected
first, followed by the heart, the entire abdomen and later on, as the
disease progresses, other areas inside the body of the victim. Each year
around 3000 new mesothelioma cases are being registered. All asbestos
induced diseases are known for their long latency period, which makes
the diagnosis rather difficult. Many years or even decades may pass
before a patient exhibits first symptoms. The overall prognosis is
rather poor, effective treatments -- let alone a cure -- is yet to be
found.
Mesothelioma law firms have mushroomed over the past ten years. Some of
them were able to recover settlement compensations or court verdicts in
the millions.As mentioned before, it is not difficult to just find any mesothelioma law firm,
however, teaming up with the right one for your case is the key to
success. When I recently conducted research on New York mesothelioma
attorneys, I came across with an interesting service that is offered by
some the law practices; it is called 'expedited trial'.
In sum: looking at the track record of mesothelioma law firms is
certainly a good starting point. In a second step, I would recommend
asking for a free consultation. Most of the law firms are willing to do
that, since the want your business.
The author Tony Ulrich was diagnosed with kidney cancer in October of
2009. In his research on what his cancer could have been caused by, he
came across with data that suggests a strong link to environmental
toxins, such as asbestos.
