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 has 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, most often caused by asbestos exposure, is a rare and 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. This area of law requires 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
Several different industries, environments, and types of jobs are more likely to see workers exposed to asbestos, including:
- Pipefitting
- Shipyards
- Construction trades
- Military workers
What makes this exposure even more devastating is that since these fibers cling to clothing and equipment, many 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.
WHAT COMPENSATION IS AVAILABLE?
Victims of mesothelioma and asbestos exposure may be entitled to significant financial compensation to cover medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and more. Fieger Law fights for maximum compensation for mesothelioma victims and their families, holding negligent companies accountable.
Compensation might include:
Medical Expenses – Covers costs for diagnosis, treatments, surgeries, chemotherapy, radiation, prescriptions, in-home care, and travel to specialists. Many mesothelioma patients require long-term and experimental treatments, which can be costly.
Lost Wages & Reduced Earning Capacity – If asbestos exposure has impacted your ability to work, you may be compensated for lost wages, loss of future earnings, and financial security for your family.
Pain & Suffering – Mesothelioma causes severe physical pain, emotional distress, and reduced quality of life. Compensation for pain and suffering reflects the devastating personal impact of this disease.
Wrongful Death Benefits – If a loved one has passed away from mesothelioma, survivors may file a wrongful death claim for:
- Funeral and burial costs
- Loss of companionship and guidance
- Loss of financial support
- Medical bills from the deceased’s treatment
