Sylvania Asbestos Lawyer

Asbestos has been used for a variety of projects since the group of minerals was discovered to have useful physical properties. Found attractive due to its heat and fire resistance, asbestos was used in factories, on railroads, and in the automotive and construction industry.

However, asbestos can be very dangerous if inhaled by an individual. People may be exposed to these fibers when an object made of asbestos is disturbed. When breathed in, asbestos becomes trapped in the lungs and can cause serious complications.

The symptoms of asbestos poisoning do not present themselves until years after exposure. These symptoms include everything from shortness of breath to loss of appetite and weight loss.

Three Main Conditions

  • Mesothelioma

Mesothelioma is the most common form of cancerous asbestos poisoning. This type of cancer occurs in the mesothelium, or the thin layer of tissues that cover the organs.

  • Asbestosis

Asbestosis is the most common non-cancerous form of asbestos poisoning. Caused by the fibers in the lungs, asbestosis is a breathing disorder that results in shortness of breath and scarring of the tissue in the lungs.

  • Lung Cancer

Lung cancer is the number one cause of cancer deaths in the U.S. and occurs in both men and women.
