Mesothelioma

If you have recently been diagnosed with malignant mesothelioma, or if a member of your family has died of mesothelioma or another malignant cancer related to asbestos exposure, contact the Texas personal injury lawyers at Gary S. Tucker and Associates, P.C. in Houston. We represent mesothelioma victims anywhere in the United States.

One of the main challenges in any lawsuit based on asbestos exposure is to identify and find the right defendants decades after the victim's ingestion of the asbestos fibers. Most persons who develop malignant mesothelioma were exposed to asbestos as long as forty years prior to diagnosis. Because asbestos is the only known cause of mesothelioma, there is usually little difficulty in establishing that the victim's illness or death was caused by the substance, but to find a past owner of property or the successor to a defunct corporation can present real problems for the plaintiff's attorney.

At Gary S. Tucker and Associates, P.C., we have the experience and the resources necessary to identify and locate the parties responsible for the unprotected exposure to asbestos that resulted in such a painful terminal illness as mesothelioma. We advance all the expenses involved in preparing and presenting your case, including the medical forensics necessary to confirm the diagnosis of mesothelioma in case the defendant disputes it. We handle all mesothelioma cases on a contingent fee basis, you are not responsible for any of our attorney's fees or expenses unless we make a successful recovery on your claim.

The asbestos exposure that can result in mesothelioma might have occurred at a shipyard, at an electric power plant, in a building where asbestos removal was performed improperly, at an automotive brake shop, or even at home where a worker inadvertently exposed a spouse or child through dust on clothing. Whatever the source of your exposure, our attorneys can help you obtain compensation. Contact Gary S. Tucker and Associates, P.C.in Houston for a free consultation.
