Mesothelioma & Asbestos Lawyers in Michigan
One of the great injustices ever forced upon America’s working class is asbestos exposure.
Despite growing evidence that asbestos is deadly, its use continued across a broad spectrum of trades and industries for decades. As a result, workers and their families have paid a devastating price for their exposure to this toxic mineral.
WHAT IS MESOTHELIOMA?
Mesothelioma is a rare form of cancer primarily—almost exclusively—caused by exposure to asbestos. It is an aggressive form of cancer that affects the lungs and abdomen. Mesothelioma is often difficult to diagnose in patients because it shares many symptoms similar to other respiratory conditions, such as chronic coughing and chest pain.
If you have worked in an industry or in a position that exposed you to asbestos, it is best to meet with a doctor and explain your symptoms and work history.
SELECTING A MESOTHELIOMA LAWYER
Selecting a lawyer to represent you in a mesothelioma case is a very important decision and one that should not be taken lightly. In this area of the law, cases like these require a specialized firm with a history of representing clients exposed to asbestos.

WHAT IS ASBESTOS?
Asbestos is a naturally-occurring mineral, widely used in everything from fire-proof vests to home and commercial construction. When asbestos fibers become airborne, they can be inhaled, become lodged in the lungs and tissue, and cause complications over time—including deadly cancers.
Today, we know that asbestos can cause serious conditions including:
- Mesothelioma
- Lung cancer
- Asbestosis
- Pleural mesothelioma
- Peritoneal mesothelioma
- Pericardial mesothelioma
According to OSHA, there more than 75 different jobs that exposed workers to asbestos, namely:
- Pipefitting
- Shipyards
- Construction trades
Military workers were also widely exposed to asbestos. Since these fibers cling to clothing and equipment, many service workers carried this substance home exposing their families to potentially deadly effects.
Corporations, employers and unions won’t admit responsibility for your asbestos exposure, and that’s why you need a powerful law firm to stand up for you. Fieger Law is that firm!
