Medical Issues

We consult with medical experts on every case, and while we are not doctors, we have compiled essential information you should know as you meet with the various doctors who will be involved in your care and treatment. We provide you with the information you need to understand about asbestos exposure and the development of mesothelioma, and an explanation of “latency” — the fact that it takes decades for this cancer to develop.

Coping with Emotional Impact

We understand the emotional impact of this terrible disease. We know that you and your family may be feeling overwhelmed as you try to come to terms with your diagnosis and evaluate your treatment options. In this book we pass along to you the valuable information that social workers and other medical professionals have shared with us, to help patients and their families cope with this disease.

Your Legal Rights

You have important legal rights. At a time when you are facing skyrocketing costs associated with treatment and many related losses, your rights may provide a recovery that will be essential to you and your family. We have included information about our extensive experience in handling mesothelioma cases.
