Mesothelioma Attorneys in Upstate, New York
Residents of upstate New York who worked in industries that used asbestos or asbestos-containing products are at risk of developing mesothelioma, an aggressive form of cancer. Most people diagnosed with mesothelioma are workers, retired workers and veterans who inhaled asbestos fibers in at-risk workplaces in New York or elsewhere. Families of workers also may have second-hand exposure to asbestos if their loved ones brought home asbestos dust on their clothing or hair.
The symptoms of asbestos-related disease generally take decades to appear. Doctors often diagnose mesothelioma only after patients complain of symptoms such as difficulty breathing, shortness of breath, chest pain or a cough that won’t go away.
