Mesothelioma Attorneys by State > California

Norco Asbestos Attorney

For too many mesothelioma victims, a diagnosis comes as a surprise in the latter stages of life. It is commonly known today that an exposure to asbestos decades ago can lead to a mesothelioma diagnosis in the present day. Worse, some research has suggested that a single exposure to the harms of asbestos may be all that is necessary to be diagnosed with an asbestos-related disease.

At The Ledger Law Firm, we believe that mesothelioma victims and surviving loved ones need a Norco mesothelioma attorney who commits to holding responsible parties accountable and recovering deserved compensation for victims who need funds for medical treatments. If your disease or a loved one’s illness was caused by a party who bears legal responsibility for the asbestos exposure, we will build a strong case that produces an effective legal outcome.

If your Norco mesothelioma diagnosis has given you a feeling of uncertainty or a lack of confidence in your future, our team will work to restore hope by ensuring that your disease is properly compensated in a way that will take care of you and your loved ones.

Why Asbestos Exposure Is Harmful

It is easy to forget that asbestos was banned decades ago, only after overwhelming evidence showed it was killing thousands of Americans. The reason this fact is easy to forget is because thousands of lives continue to be lost because of asbestos every year.

Why does asbestos continue to be so harmful decades after its ban? First, asbestos was used to construct almost every commercial building and the vast majority of residential buildings before the 1970s asbestos ban. Likewise, nearly every military site used asbestos prior to the ban, which helps explain why nearly one-third of mesothelioma deaths are suffered by veterans, who make up less than 10% of the population.

Asbestos is made up of microscopic fibers that release into the air when they are drilled, age or are disturbed in a myriad of ways. These fibers are then swallowed or inhaled by individuals exposed to the fibers.

Once the fibers enter the body, the long process of turning healthy cells into cancerous or otherwise diseased ones begins in earnest. That said, it can take decades for asbestos to turn into mesothelioma, which helps explain why the disease is so difficult to diagnose.

From 1999 to 2013, the CDC estimates that more than 1,000 lives have been lost to asbestos-related diseases in Riverside County and its Norco area. If you or a loved one has been diagnosed with this deadly disease in Norco or Riverside County, you owe it to yourself to find out whether you are entitled to legal compensation with the help of a Norco mesothelioma lawyer at Ledger Law.
