ASBESTOS EXPOSURE
If you or someone you know was exposed to asbestos and experienced any serious side effects, including mesothelioma, you might have a claim for your injuries. Mesothelioma is a cancer which almost exclusively results from exposure to asbestos and can manifest itself even fifty years after the exposure. Pleural mesothelioma is the most common manifestation which is a tumor within the pleura of the lung. It can also develop in the lining of the stomach called peritoneal mesothelioma. Mesothelioma that develops in the heart sac is called pericardial mesothelioma. Mesothelioma is an painful and progressive type of cancer for which there is no cure to date and inevitable results in death.
Many companies that profited from making, selling and using asbestos in their products knew and employers who required their employees to handle asbestos knew or should have known decades ago that asbestos is very dangerous and could kill people. Nevertheless, these companies continued to market and sell these deadly products, and require employees to continue handling it. Innocent individuals, in most cases, either did not know that they were exposed to asbestos or had no choice but to expose themselves to it. The Law Offices of Kovic & Rutigliano, L.L.P. are experienced asbestos exposure and negligence attorneys for the State of New Jersey.
