After a Diagnosis of Mesothelioma
The process of diagnosing mesothelioma is challenging, partly because it's symptoms are similar to those of other diseases and partly because it presents itself decades after exposure to asbestos.
After the diagnosis comes, so does the question: What next? Treatments are available, but they cost money. At the law firm of Zamler, Mellen & Shiffman, our attorneys can help you get the compensation needed to cover medical bills and other expenses. We have decades of experience handling mesothelioma and asbestos-related disease cases for people in Detroit and throughout Michigan. We can handle your case.
Getting the Treatment You Need
Your doctor will work with you to determine what treatment makes the most sense in your case. The most common treatment for mesothelioma is chemotherapy. Depending on the situation, it may be used as the primary treatment or in conjunction with another treatment. Chemotherapy often results in substantial side effects, such as nausea. Chemotherapy patients are usually prescribed drugs to deal with these side effects.
Those other treatments may include surgeries on the lungs, as well as the insertion of talc to reduce the recurrence of liquid from the lungs. Radiation therapy may also be used in an attempt to kill the cancer cells. Radiation typically causes fewer side effects than chemotherapy.
Types of Compensation
When a medical condition is the result of handling substances that shouldn't have been handled in the workplace, the victim should not be responsible for the costs. Our goal is to take action against those responsible to get compensation to cover the costs.
Our lawyers are good at achieving our goals: We have helped over 150,000 people and recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for our clients. The types of compensation available for victims of their disease include medical expenses, lost earnings, and physical pain and suffering.
No Fee Unless You Get Compensation
Our guarantee to you: We won't charge one dime unless we are successful in getting you compensation.
