What Caused My Lung Cancer?

The only known cause of mesothelioma is exposure to asbestos. Asbestos is a mineral that was commonly used in insulating pipes, fire-retardant materials and certain other products such as brakes. Mesothelioma can develop years after the exposure to asbestos occurred.

Some people that are affected by mesothelioma include:

• Pipe-fitters and welders
• Steam plant and power plant workers
• Family members of those with mesothelioma

Although workers' compensation claim for mesothelioma may be possible, it can be a challenge. Talk to our mesothelioma attorney in Southaven who understands all areas of personal injury law and can talk you through your rights and the legal process.

Legal Options for Mesothelioma Victims

Whenever a person is diagnosed with mesothelioma, finding the cause is a matter of tracking down when and how the person was exposed to asbestos. The lawyers at Chatham Gilder Howell Pittman PLLC can help you do this.

Our lawyers work hard to find every possible way you could have been exposed to asbestos. Then we will file a lawsuit against all companies that may have been responsible for that exposure. We don't need to be positive which exposure caused your cancer. However, the stronger your proof of exposure, the stronger your claim.
