Mesothelioma Lawyers in Riverside

California Mesothelioma Attorneys

Manufacturers or industries that expose workers and consumers to asbestos may be held legally liable even though asbestos exposure occurred decades ago.

Mesotheliom Facts

  • Mesothelioma is a rare, fatal cancer.
  • Asbestos exposure is the sole cause of mesothelioma.
  • Mesothelioma is diagnosed in 2,000 to 3,000 cases every year in the United States.
  • In certain cases, mesothelioma symptoms do not emerge until 50 years after asbestos exposure.
  • Workers may bring asbestos microfibers into the home on their clothing, which exposes other family members to the risk of mesothelioma.

Common Uses of Asbestos

Asbestos had widespread commercial use during the 20th century, prior to discovering that it caused mesothelioma. Examples of products that used asbestos include:

  • Roofing materials
  • Cement
  • Flooring materials
  • Insulation
  • Drywall
  • Bricks
  • Auto brakes
  • Appliances (toasters, coffee pots, etc.)
  • Electric blankets
  • Portable heaters
  • Acoustical ceiling tiles
  • HVAC duct vibration dampers
  • Asbestos pipes
  • Adhesives

Many Industries Had Wide Exposure to Asbestos

Many workers were exposed to asbestos on a daily basis, through the following industries:

  • Commercial and residential construction
  • Manufacturing factories
  • Power plants
  • Machine shops
  • Television and radio repair
  • Foundries
  • Oil refineries
  • Private and U.S. Navy shipyards
  • Heavy equipment operation
  • Chemical plants
  • Auto body repair shops

Mesothelioma Misdiagnosis

Misdiagnosis of mesothelioma occurs frequently because symptoms are also characteristic of other diseases, and mesothelioma is rare by comparison. If you are ill, it is very important to let your doctor know about past exposure to asbestos. Common symptoms include:

  • Difficulty breathing
  • Chest pains
  • Abdominal pain
  • Weight loss
  • Blood clots
  • Anemia
  • Hoarseness
  • Difficulty swallowing
  • Coughing up blood
