About Mesothelioma
What is mesothelioma?
Mesothelioma is a rare and aggressive form of cancer that affects the lining of the lungs, heart, or abdomen. It is caused by exposure to asbestos, a naturally occurring mineral that was used in many industrial and construction products from the 1940s to the 1980s.
What are the symptoms of mesothelioma?
The symptoms of mesothelioma can vary depending on the type and stage of the disease. Common symptoms include shortness of breath, chest pain, coughing, fatigue, weight loss, and abdominal swelling. Because these symptoms can be similar to those of other diseases, mesothelioma is often misdiagnosed.
How is mesothelioma diagnosed?
Diagnosing mesothelioma can be difficult, as there is no single test that can definitively identify the disease. Doctors typically use a combination of imaging tests (such as X-rays, CT scans, and MRIs) and biopsies (in which a sample of tissue is removed and examined under a microscope) to make a diagnosis.
What are the treatment options for mesothelioma?
The treatment options for mesothelioma depend on the type and stage of the disease, as well as the patient’s overall health. Treatment may include surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, or a combination of these approaches. Unfortunately, there is currently no cure for mesothelioma.
What is the prognosis for mesothelioma?
The prognosis for mesothelioma is generally poor, as the disease is often diagnosed at an advanced stage when treatment options are limited. However, early detection and aggressive treatment can improve a patient’s chances of survival. The average life expectancy for someone with mesothelioma is around 12 to 21 months.

What is the process for working with the Coady Law Firm?
The first step is to schedule a free consultation with one of our attorneys. During this consultation, we will discuss your case, answer any questions you may have, and explain the legal process. If we decide to work together, we will start by conducting a thorough investigation into your case, including gathering medical records, interviewing witnesses, and reviewing company and product histories. We will then file a lawsuit on your behalf and work tirelessly to get you the compensation you deserve.
What types of compensation can I receive in a mesothelioma lawsuit?
If you win your mesothelioma lawsuit, you may be entitled to a number of different types of compensation, including medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and punitive damages (which are meant to punish the defendant for their actions). The exact amount of compensation you may receive will depend on the specifics of your case.
What if my loved one has passed away from mesothelioma?
If your loved one has passed away from mesothelioma, you may still be able to file a lawsuit on their behalf. This is known as a wrongful death lawsuit, and it allows family members to seek compensation for their loved one’s medical expenses, funeral costs, lost income, and more.
How long will my mesothelioma lawsuit take?
The length of a mesothelioma lawsuit can vary depending on a number of factors, including the specifics of your case, the court system in which your case is being heard, and the defendant’s willingness to settle. However, most cases are resolved within a year or two of being filed.
What if I can’t afford a lawyer?
The Coady Law Firm works on a contingency fee basis, which means that we don’t get paid unless we win your case. This means that you don’t have to worry about upfront legal fees or out-of-pocket expenses.
Can I still file a mesothelioma lawsuit if I don’t know where or when I was exposed to asbestos?
Yes, you may still be able to file a mesothelioma lawsuit even if you’re not sure where or when you were exposed to asbestos. Our attorneys have extensive experience in identifying the sources of asbestos exposure and holding the responsible parties accountable.
