Mesothelioma is a disease that affects nearly 3000 people a year in the United States alone. It's a disease that especially targets our hard working citizens who have labored for a lifetime to provide for their families, doing the work that keeps this country running. People who worked in factories, at shipyards, in mines, for the US military, as engineers, as pipefitters, as steel workers, as auto mechanics, and in so many other professions.
Mesothelioma is a disease that is almost 100% preventable; the only known cause is via exposure to the mineral asbestos. It comes from inhaling the particles of the asbestos dust, which over time can develop into one of three common forms of mesothelioma (pleural, peritoneal or pericardial). Often times this asbestos dust was inhaled in clouds of white powder by the worker himself. However, the dust was also carried home on the clothes of these workers exposing their families to the dangers of asbestos. This type of exposure is called 'secondary exposure' and can cause mesothelioma in people who never directly worked in asbestos industries.
The sad truth is that the effects of asbestos on the human body were well known by the companies who employed generations of families and whom made billions of dollars off of their backs. But instead of taking simple steps to alleviate the problem and save the lives of thousands of their workers, these companies unfortunately chose to do nothing in an effort to continue to make a "healthy" profit with a "deadly" product. Many companies even went so far as to hide the truth from workers, their families and even the U.S. government. And because the normal latency period for malignant mesothelioma is 20 to 50 years, many companies got away with this for years. However, at Weitz and Luxenberg we have dedicated our personal and professional lives to holding these corporations responsible for putting profits over people.
