The basics include making certain the victim designates a trusted family member with a medical power of attorney, and making certain the victim has a will

Post this

(PRWEB) August 20, 2013 -- The Mesothelioma Victims Center says,"Within the last week we received a heartbreaking phone call from the wife of a diagnosed victim of mesothelioma, who had just died. In this instance the victim had served in the US Navy, where he worked in a ship's engine room in the 1960's. His ship went through a major overhaul at the Long Beach Naval Shipyard in California, that has since been closed. After the US Navy, the Veteran worked in a steel mill in Pennsylvania, that has since closed. Without the first hand information from victim related to the specifics about where was he exposed to asbestos, and or how he was exposed to asbestos, mesothelioma legal experts tell us these types of mesothelioma cases go from being worth potentially a million dollars plus, to several hundred thousand dollars. It even gets worse. The individual was diagnosed with mesothelioma, on the same day he died. He had no will, and no executor of his estate."

It is a situation like that makes the Mesothelioma Victims Center increasingly passionate about making certain all diagnosed victims of mesothelioma, or their family call them at 866-714-6466, because their remarkable service is focused on the basics. The basics include making certain the victim designates a trusted family member with a medical power of attorney, making certain the victim has a will, and making certain the diagnosed victim has instant access to the nation's leading mesothelioma compensation attorneys. The group wants to emphasize, the incredibly skilled legal professionals, they suggest are typically in the mesothelioma victim's home within two, or three days of the initial call, in order to make sure they have all of the exposure information from the actual victim. These incredibly skilled attorneys can also offer instant advice on wills, and power of attorney. http://MesotheliomaVictimsCenter.Com

The Mesothelioma Victims Center says, "Of the 2500 to 3000 US citizens, who will be diagnosed with mesothelioma this year, about one third will be US Navy Veterans. Aside from US Navy Veterans, other high risk groups for mesothelioma cancer include shipyard, power plant, or oil refinery workers, plumbers, electricians, county, or city municipal water district workers, miners, demolition construction workers, railroad workers, chemical manufacturing facility workers, steel mill workers, residential, or commercial construction workers, or auto brake technicians. The Mesothelioma Victims Center says, "One thing we really want families to understand is mesothelioma cancer does not typically show up until the Navy Veteran, or individual is in their 60's, and more often than not their 70's, or 80's. Frequently mesothelioma is diagnosed three, four, or even five decades after the exposure to asbestos. Because of the age of the diagnosed victim of mesothelioma, we really do need family members to call us at 866-714-6466, so we can help them, help their loved one." http://MesotheliomaVictimsCenter.Com

The Mesothelioma Victims Center says, "According to the US Centers for disease control, between 2500, and 3000 US citizens will be diagnosed with mesothelioma this year. The states with the highest incidence of mesothelioma include New Jersey, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Maine, Washington, and Wyoming. However based on the phone calls we receive diagnosed victims of mesothelioma are in every state." For more information about mesothelioma, and all the things a diagnosed victim should do, victims, or their family members are urged to call the Mesothelioma Victims Center anytime at 866-714-6466. http://MesotheliomaVictimsCenter.Com
