It's incredibly vital for a diagnosed victim of mesothelioma who worked in construction, or maintenance to call us at 866-714-6466, so we can give these individuals instant access to the nation's top mesothelioma lawyers

Post this

(PRWEB) May 29, 2014 -- The Mesothelioma Victims Center says, "We have made it our goal to play the supporting role in anyone dealing with a mesothelioma diagnosis. This week we have found a report that focuses on a specific subdivision of those at risk for mesothelioma; construction workers. The report lists out where asbestos hazards might be found in a home constructed during the decades previously mentioned. The list should serve as a point of reference for those who worked in the construction field. Contact the center at 866-714-6466 if any of the following products or locations in the home sound like something you may have come in contact with.”
According to the US Consumer Products Safety Commission: Where Asbestos Hazards May Be Found In The Home
1. Some roofing and siding shingles are made of asbestos cement.
2. Houses built between 1930 and 1950 may have asbestos as insulation.
3. Asbestos may be present in textured paint and in patching compounds used on wall and ceiling joints. Their use was banned in 1977.
4. Artificial ashes and embers sold for use in gas-fired fireplaces may contain asbestos.
5. Older products such as stove-top pads may have some asbestos compounds.
6. Walls and floors around wood burning stoves may be protected with asbestos paper, millboard, or cement sheets.
7. Asbestos is found in some vinyl floor tiles and the backing on vinyl sheet flooring and adhesives.
8. Hot water and steam pipes in older houses may be coated with an asbestos material or covered with an asbestos blanket or tape.
9. Oil and coal furnaces and door gaskets may have asbestos insulation.

The Mesothelioma Victims Center is incredibly passionate about making certain all diagnosed victims of mesothelioma get the best possible financial compensation settlements. The group places extra emphasis on providing every victim and their family with the contact information on the most skilled mesothelioma attorneys in the nation. As the Center would like to explain with one phone call to 866-714-6466, individuals who were exposed to asbestos on a residential or commercial construction work site can frequently get compensation settlements that exceed one million dollars—provided they have the best attorneys. http://MesotheliomaVictimsCenter.Com

The Center says, "In a typical month about 20% of all the diagnosed victims of mesothelioma we talk to either worked in residential or commercial construction. Others were often involved in maintenance at a manufacturing or industrial workplace. In almost all cases we are talking about exposure that occurred of many decades.

"We cannot emphasize enough how potentially substantial these types of mesothelioma compensation claims can be. It's incredibly vital for a diagnosed victim of mesothelioma who worked in construction, or maintenance to call us at 866-714-6466, so we can give these individuals instant access to the nation's top mesothelioma lawyers. You do not want an amateur law firm, or a less-experienced local personal injury attorney handling a mesothelioma compensation claim for a former construction worker." http://MesotheliomaVictimsCenter.Com

Information About Mesothelioma For Diagnosed Victims And Their Families From The Mesothelioma Victims Center:

According to the US Center for Disease Control, the average age for a diagnosed victim of mesothelioma is 72 years old. Frequently victims of mesothelioma are initially misdiagnosed with pneumonia. This year between 2,500 and 3,000 US citizens will be diagnosed with mesothelioma. Mesothelioma is attributable to exposure to asbestos.

High-risk work groups for exposure to asbestos include: US Navy Veterans, shipyard workers, oil refinery workers, manufacturing workers, plumbers, electricians, auto mechanics, machinists, and construction workers. Typically the exposure to asbestos occurred in the 1950s, 1960s, 1970s, or 1980s. http://MesotheliomaVictimsCenter.Com

The states with the highest incidence of mesothelioma include: Pennsylvania, Maine, New Jersey, West Virginia, Florida, Wyoming, and Washington. However, based on the calls the Mesothelioma Victims Center receives diagnosed victims could be in any state including California, New York, Texas, Massachusetts, Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, Georgia, Louisiana, Missouri, Ohio, Michigan, Iowa, Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin, Minnesota, North Dakota, Montana, Nebraska, Kansas, Colorado, Utah, New Mexico, Arizona Nevada, Idaho, Oregon, and Alaska.

The Mesothelioma Victims Center says, “Before you hire a mesothelioma attorney please call us at 866-714-6466, and compare the qualifications of who we consider to be the nation's most skilled mesothelioma attorneys to any other lawyer, or law firm. When it comes to obtaining the best mesothelioma settlement, the quality of the attorney matters, as we would like to explain." http://MesotheliomaVictimsCenter.Com
