Patients diagnosed with mesothelioma find themselves at the beginning of a journey. Because of the rarity of the disease and the developing nature of the treatments, it is a journey that will take them on sparsely-traveled, out of the way back-roads. The kind of roads that are often difficult to navigate. Difficult, that is, unless you have a good road map.
We Only Handle Mesothelioma & Asbestos Lung Cancer Cases
Unlike large firms that handle asbestos cases as part of a much broader practice, since 1990 our practice has been dedicated solely to mesothelioma and asbestos lung cancer cases.
Our responsive, individualized attention to our client’s medical and legal needs together with customized representation is what sets us apart.
