Experienced Attorney Representing the Victims of Mesothelioma
When someone you love has been diagnosed with mesothelioma, it can feel as if nothing will ever be the same. While no legal action can bring back good heath, it help you take action — giving you the resources to care for your loved one and your family.
From my law office in Spartanburg, South Carolina — Patrick E. Knie Law Offices — I represent the victims of mesothelioma and their families. I know the heartache that this type of diagnosis can bring, so I advocate forcefully to make sure that your rights are fully protected in court.
What is Mesothelioma?
Mesothelioma is a disease in which malignant cells are found in the area lining the chest, heart and lungs. It is a rare form of disease, but the people who experience it often have one thing in common: they have been exposed to asbestos that can be directly linked to their sickness now.
People may have exposed asbestos and other toxins in several ways:
- By working in jobs that exposed them to asbestos — trades like insulators, plumbers, electricians and manufacturers
- In households or schools where asbestos was present
Getting the Care You Need
If you are dealing with a very serious condition, like mesothelioma, you may wish to seek the services of a medical specialist who may have special knowledge related to asbestos lung cancer. If you are out of work, or if you are not getting a paycheck, you may be worried about the costs of medical specialists.
At the Patrick E. Knie Law Offices, I can often help by contacting your creditors or medical providers and telling them why you are behind in payments. I let them know that you are working with a lawyer, so that you can get the care you need.
