Sausalito Asbestos Attorney



A mesothelioma diagnosis is a difficult thing to face for any patient or family member, which is a truth that words alone cannot fully convey. Survival rates are low for any form of mesothelioma, and five-year outlooks for some forms of mesothelioma cancer are less than 10 percent.

However, the newest treatments provide a more optimistic outlook for the future of mesothelioma treatment. Similarly, future medical treatments may hold the key to unlocking significant progress for mesothelioma survival rates, such as a treatment that could use electric currents to more successfully treat pleural mesothelioma.

While there is much reason for optimism regarding these treatments, the fact remains that mesothelioma is a difficult and expensive disease to treat. Too many victims pass away to mesothelioma, especially in California, a state that has lost more lives to asbestos diseases than any other. For the victims who continue to survive with mesothelioma, treatments that prolong life can be exceptionally expensive.

Whether you or a loved one is receiving expensive treatments or has passed away because of mesothelioma, justice and compensation should be delivered when a legally responsible party caused your disease. Commonly, victims are diagnosed with mesothelioma because they were wrongly exposed to asbestos.

At The Ledger Law Firm, we hold responsible parties accountable and pursue your right to the compensation that your family needs. We have a track record of helping mesothelioma victims recover millions in compensation that help families improve a loved one’s quality of life while holding responsible parties accountable.

Why Exposure to Asbestos Harms Victims

In Sausalito’s Marin County, it is estimated that more than 220 victims have passed away because of an asbestos-related illness between 1999 and 2013. In addition to mesothelioma, asbestos exposure can cause asbestosis and asbestos-related lung cancer, which are also often fatal for victims.

Asbestos was used throughout the 20th century in most residential and commercial buildings, as well as military sites. In fact, asbestos was so prevalent in the military that nearly 1 in 3 mesothelioma deaths are suffered by veterans.

Asbestos, a mineral that occurs naturally, was used because of its durable nature and chemical-resistant attributes. However, the mineral was made of microscopic fibers that are easily swallowed or inhaled when asbestos-containing minerals are disturbed. And, many older California buildings continue to serve an asbestos risk because those buildings were built with asbestos prior to the national ban of the mineral in the 1970s.
