St. George Mesothelioma Attorney
The physical dangers of asbestos were discovered in 1924, when the first case of asbestosis was diagnosed. Since that time, research has continually linked this substance to dangerous illnesses such as lung cancer and mesothelioma. However, legislation requiring stricter workplace regulation of such dangerous substances was not established until the late 1970s. Workers in the manufacturing industry were routinely exposed to dangerous levels of asbestos all the way through 1976.
Mesothelioma has an extremely long dormancy period of up to several decades. Those who develop this disease do not do so until many years after their first exposure to asbestos. Because of this, workers who were engaged in these dangerous working environments prior to the 1980s are only now being diagnosed with mesothelioma.
If you have been diagnosed with mesothelioma due to workplace exposure to asbestos, then you have the right to take action against the negligent employer responsible for your condition.
