Missouri Mesothelioma Asbestos Exposure Attorneys

Missouri Mesothelioma Lawyers

Mesothelioma is a cancer that attacks the lining around the lungs and abdomen. Exposure to asbestos dust, particles and fibers is the only known cause of mesothelioma. Approximately 3,000 new cases are diagnosed every year in the United States and for most patients, the prognosis is not good. Life expectancy is usually only a few years in most cases.

A diagnosis of mesothelioma is a crushing blow to workers and their families who are approaching retirement or have already begun enjoying their golden years. After a lifetime of work, thousands of Americans are robbed of their retirement by this insidious disease. Mesothelioma grows slowly and symptoms don't appear for 20 to 50 years after asbestos exposure.
