Ohio Mesothelioma Lawyers
The landscape for those affected by asbestos exposure in Ohio is rapidly changing, and not for the benefit of those who are victims. State legislation passed in 2004 requires all plaintiffs in cases involving asbestos to provide written testimony from a doctor who has treated the patient directly and determined that her health has been severely and adversely impacted through asbestos exposure.
The Ohio Supreme Court has since ruled that the law can be applied before its specified start date, and more than 30,000 cases have been dismissed outright as a result. The state’s legislature is now considering a bill that would further restrict the legal rights of plaintiffs in these cases, and despite the governor’s stated opposition, it does not bode well for the individuals and families who have been stricken by asbestosis, mesothelioma, or other cancers caused by asbestos.
The Ohio mesothelioma attorneys of Williams Kherkher know how vital it is for you to receive financial compensation that can cover the medical bills, lost wages, and alleviate some of the pain and suffering that asbestos exposure imposed upon you.
