Exposure to asbestos can increase an individual's risk for developing a number of diseases, such as mesothelioma and asbestosis. Asbestos is a naturally-occurring mineral that has been used for centuries in thousands of products. Because of its durability and ability to withstand extreme temperature, it was often referred to as a miracle mineral. However, as time passed, medical researchers discovered that the fibers released from the mineral could lead to serious health complications. At Cole, Cole, Easley & Sciba, P.C., our legal team is committed to helping those who have been affected by asbestos.

Where Can You Find Asbestos?

Fortunately, the majority of products used in America today no longer contain asbestos. However, homes and buildings constructed before 1980 still have traces of the mineral. While identifying asbestos with a visual inspection is difficult, having a knowledge of where asbestos can be typically found can help you avoid exposure.

Mesothelioma Lawyers in Victoria

Mesothelioma is possibly the most devastating asbestos-related disease, often resulting in death. It is a malignant tumor that attacks the peritoneum or the pleura, the thin membranes that surround the abdominal cavity and lungs, respectively. Malignant mesothelioma is almost always the result of exposure to asbestos.
