Asbestos Law Firm

Asbestos is a naturally occurring mineral once widely used in various industries due to its heat resistance and durability. However, asbestos exposure can have devastating health consequences. When inhaled or ingested, microscopic asbestos fibers become lodged in the body, leading to severe diseases like mesothelioma and lung cancer.

Mesothelioma is a rare and aggressive cancer primarily affecting the lining of the lungs, abdomen, or heart. It is directly linked to asbestos exposure, often developing decades after the initial contact. Similarly, asbestos exposure significantly increases the risk of lung cancer, a leading cause of cancer deaths in the United States.
