Mesothelioma Victims Center Offers Access to the Nation's Top Lawyers for Recently Diagnosed Construction Workers

October 18, 2016

NEW YORK -- The Mesothelioma Victims Center specializes in assisting construction workers and skilled trades workers with mesothelioma obtain the best possible financial compensation. The group offers direct access to the nation's top lawyers who consistently get the best possible financial compensation results for their clients. As the Center would like to explain anytime, "Having the nation's top mesothelioma attorneys and receiving the very best financial compensation for this asbestos exposure form of cancer are directly related." 

Much like you would only want to hire skilled contractors when building a house or commercial structure, having the most experienced and qualified mesothelioma attorneys carefully advancing the claim, or numerous financial compensation claims, ensures higher success chance and compensation value as the Center would like to discuss anytime at 800-714-0303.

The Center says, "We want to make 100 pecent certain that a construction or a skilled trades worker such as an electrician, plumber, welder, or carpenter with mesothelioma have the nation's top lawyers at their direct disposal; as opposed to having an inexperienced local personal-injury law firm or mesothelioma middleman broker law firm that has little to do with the compensation claim.

"If we had just one important tip for any recently diagnosed construction worker or skilled trades worker with mesothelioma it would be this: "Measure two, three, or four times before you actually hire a law firm. Call us at 800-714-0303 before hiring a lawyer to assist with your compensation process. If you do not hire the most qualified mesothelioma attorneys, you just might end up with a less-than-stellar mesothelioma financial compensation settlement. Translation: you will get shortchanged on mesothelioma compensation." 

The Mesothelioma Victims Center specializes in assisting people nationwide who have been diagnosed with mesothelioma because of their exposure to asbestos as a:

  • Construction worker
  • Electrician
  • Plumber
  • Welder
  • Insulator
  • Roofer
  • Pipefitter
  • Concrete specialist

The average age for a diagnosed victim of mesothelioma is 72 years old. This year between 2500, and 3000 US citizens will be diagnosed with mesothelioma in the United States. Mesothelioma is a rare form of cancer that is attributable to exposure to asbestos.

High risk work groups for exposure to asbestos include Veterans of the US Navy, power plant workers, shipyard workers, steel mill workers, oil refinery workers, factory workers, plumbers, electricians, welders, pipefitters, miners, auto mechanics, machinists, pulp or paper mill workers, printers, firemen, rail road workers and construction workers. In most instances people with mesothelioma were exposed to asbestos in the 1950s, 1960s, 1970s, or 1980s. 

According to the CDC the states indicated with the highest incidence of mesothelioma include Maine, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Maryland, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio, West Virginia, Virginia, Michigan, Illinois, Minnesota, Louisiana, Washington, and Oregon.

However, based on the calls the Mesothelioma Victims Center receives a construction worker or skilled trades worker with mesothelioma could live in any state including New York, Florida, California, Texas, Illinois, Ohio, Iowa, Indiana, Missouri, Kentucky, Tennessee, North Carolina, Georgia, Mississippi, Alabama, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Kansas, Nebraska, North Dakota, Wyoming, Colorado, Nevada, New Mexico, Utah, Arizona, Idaho, or Alaska.
