Attorneys helping mesothelioma victims for over 25 years
For the past 25 years, our attorneys have been successfully representing mesothelioma victims and their families. As lawyers who are experts in our field, we have helped our clients obtain hundreds of millions of dollars in mesothelioma and asbestos cancer related lawsuit settlements.
Mesothelioma, a form of cancer usually caused by exposure to
asbestos, is a serious illness. At Clapper, Patti, Schweizer & Mason, our
attorneys understand how traumatic and devastating the disease of mesothelioma can be. Our
approach to the process of helping mesothelioma victims obtain
compensation and
mesothelioma treatment is one based upon compassion and understanding, every step of the way. The challenges victims face can seem overwhelming, and mesothelioma treatment is expensive.
A
mesothelioma diagnosis can often mean severe financial hardship if you don't first obtain legal assistance provided by trial lawyers with the expertise and experience required. We have that expertise and two and a half decades of experience that can make the difference in successfully obtaining the compensation you are entitled to.
The financial resources we make available allow our clients to focus on
fighting mesothelioma, beating the odds, and enjoying time with their loved ones. If you are a patient seeking
treatment for mesothelioma, you need the financial resources necessary to help you deal with this disease, and we can help.
Asbestos Exposure - holding asbestos companies accountable
Every mesothelioma patient's
exposure to asbestos is different. Some, such as insulators, shipyard workers, or boilermakers, had jobs that obviously involved working with asbestos. However, many mesothelioma victims we have represented have not known how or when they were exposed to asbestos until our lawyers and support staff completed an extensive asbestos exposure investigation.
By getting to know each client as an individual, and by learning each client's personal story of asbestos exposure, we can show which asbestos companies were responsible for causing the mesothelioma. As lawyers representing people with mesothelioma, we hold the asbestos industry accountable for the damage their products have done.
When asbestos exposure results in mesothelioma, no matter how far the asbestos company, construction company, or employer has gone to deny, disclaim or otherwise ignore the true cause for that mesothelioma, the attorneys at Clapper, Patti, Schweizer & Mason are your best ally in uncovering the truth and bringing your claim to
successful financial resolution on your behalf.
Many people with mesothelioma who first contact us mistakenly believe the asbestos companies did not know their asbestos products caused cancer until the 1970's or 1980's. This is unfortunately not true. Documents our lawyers have obtained in litigation show that manufacturers of asbestos products knew the workers in their own factories were getting lung cancer and mesothelioma from asbestos as early as the 1930's and 1940's, yet they hid this knowledge.
It is a modern tragedy that most cases of mesothelioma and other asbestos cancers could and should have been prevented. While we cannot undo the harm that asbestos has caused, our mission as mesothelioma attorneys is to hold the wrongdoers accountable, and to recover the maximum compensation possible for our clients.
Helping the families of people affected by mesothelioma as well
Our lawyers represent not only people who have been diagnosed with mesothelioma, but also spouses, sons and daughters of people who have died from mesothelioma.
If you or a loved one has been diagnosed with mesothelioma cancer, please contact us as soon as possible even if you don't yet know the prognosis. One of our lawyers will fly to your home anywhere in the United States within a few days. In most cases, you will not have to travel or even appear in court. Our attorneys will investigate your case, meet with you and take video depositions. You will not have to pay any attorneys' fees unless we obtain a financial settlement for you. Also, it is vital for you to understand that mesothelioma treatment is possible, and that having an attorney on your side can provide you the additional support you will need during this most challenging time.
