How Can I Prove That My Mesothelioma Was Caused By Asbestos Exposure In New Orleans?

Because there is only one known cause of mesothelioma, a diagnosis is clear evidence of asbestos exposure.

Determining when and where the asbestos exposure occurred can involve a bit of detective work.

Your lawyer will help you re-trace your work history.

In some cases, this could include the work history of a loved one. They may have worked in a job that was responsible for the asbestos exposure.

Asbestos Exposure Is The Only Known Cause Of Mesothelioma

Asbestos fibers are very, very small. For many who suffered constant exposure, it might have seemed like they were just working in a dusty environment.

Many workers were kept in the dark about the consequences of breathing in and inhaling asbestos.

However, companies knew for decades that employees who worked with the mineral tended to become ill.

Because no action was taken to protect them, or the families they went home to every night, courts have long held that companies who sickened workers this way are responsible for compensating them.
