Peoria Mesothelioma Attorney

Every year around 2,000 Americans are diagnosed with mesothelioma. This painful and aggressive form of cancer has only one known cause: inhalation of asbestos fibers. The majority of mesothelioma patients have worked with asbestos in the past, but some have only used products containing it or lived with asbestos workers. The scars caused by inhaled fibers can take years to develop into cancer, so people who have not worked with asbestos for decades can still be at risk.

Since the 1970′s, a growing body of evidence has shown that many employers knew about the risks of asbestos long before they became public knowledge. Tragically, this information was often withheld from workers for the sake of corporate profit. Today Peoria mesothelioma attorneys Williams Kherkher strive to help people who have been hurt by this shocking negligence. We can be reached at 800-781-3955.

Mesothelioma and Employer Negligence

If you or someone you care about has been diagnosed with mesothelioma, you may have grounds for legal action. Employers who knowingly exposed their workers to asbestos without proper safety precautions need to be held responsible for the harm they have caused.

A legal claim can help you win compensation for medical expenses, lost wages or reduced earning capacity, and other expenses that are not your fault. There is a statute of limitations beginning from your date of diagnosis, however, so you need to act quickly. A qualified Peoria mesothelioma lawyer can tell you more about your legal options.
