Mississippi residents who have been exposed to asbestos on their job, at home or at another location may qualify to bring a case against those who caused their injuries and to receive compensation for the injuries they suffered. Discussing your mesothelioma lawsuits with a lawyer is the first step to ensure that your rights are protected by the law.

Individuals who worked at asbestos jobsites in Jackson, Gulfport, Biloxi, Hattiesburg and other cities and towns in Mississippi may have been exposed to asbestos-containing products. Veterans who served in the U.S. Navy or other branches of the armed forces may also have been exposed to asbestos that was used aboard ships or in other materials used by the military.

It may take as long as 50 years following exposure before an someone develops the first mesothelioma symptoms or signs of another asbestos-related condition. A trained mesothelioma lawyer can assist you in identifying the products containing asbestos to which you might have been exposed and determine who may have been responsible for your diagnosis.
