Frequently Asked Questions

If I Was Exposed To Asbestos Many Years Ago, Why Was I Just Diagnosed With Mesothelioma, Lung Cancer or Asbestosis?

Asbestos illnesses and cancers are diseases of latency. This means that injuries from exposure to asbestos fibers do not become apparent until at least ten years after exposure. In many cases, diseases occur over 50 years after exposure to asbestos fibers. Therefore, individuals exposed to asbestos in the 1940's, 50's, 60's and 7'0s may be diagnosed with an asbestos disease this year.
