Louisiana Mesothelioma Attorneys

Receiving a diagnosis of Mesothelioma is scary and confusing. The biggest question is, how could this have happened?

Mesothelioma is a disease with a long latency period. This means that exposure to asbestos occurs decades before diagnosis. Obtaining counsel with experience in thoroughly investigating relevant work history to make sure the correct corporations are held accountable is critical for the success of your case.

Louisiana’s cancer alley includes high-risk occupations and job sites for exposure to asbestos such as:
  • Petrochemical industrial facilities
  • Power plants
  • Shipyards
  • Pipelines
  • Factories
  • Insulators
  • Welders
  • Pipefitters
  • Carpenters/Millwrights
  • Laborers in various industrial facilities
  • Longshoremen
Have you or a loved one been diagnosed with mesothelioma without an identifiable source of asbestos exposure?

Exposure to asbestos sufficient to cause mesothelioma can also occur through bystander (or take home exposure). If you or a loved on is diagnosed with mesothelioma and did not work with asbestos, it is important to hire a law firm who can do a proper investigation into potential exposure sources. Some individuals diagnosed with mesothelioma have spouses who previously worked with or around asbestos and would become exposed while doing laundry. Some individuals have developed mesothelioma due to lifelong use of talcum powder products contaminated with asbestos. Our firm has extensive experience with litigating bystander (take home) exposure cases.
