Belluck & Fox Mesothelioma Expertise
Table of Contents
Mesothelioma is a cancer caused by exposure to asbestos that is very difficult to diagnose and treat. With a median survival of 12 months after diagnosis and a 10% five-year survival rate, mesothelioma is extremely aggressive. In light of this, Belluck & Fox is not only a formidable legal advocate for its clients – the firm has also been a major supporter of research into mesothelioma treatments and diagnostics. In addition, Mr. Belluck is a co-author of the book 100 Questions & Answers About Mesothelioma, a preeminent source of information for those affected by mesothelioma.
Despite research efforts to develop better treatments, current options provide only limited effectiveness. However, with expert care, patients can and do live longer and better lives. Unfortunately, mesothelioma specialists are only available at few centers across the United States, which means that travel for treatment is generally necessary. Coupled with the inability for the patient to continue working, a mesothelioma diagnosis is extremely expensive. Obtaining compensation can help alleviate the financial burden on mesothelioma patients and their families and allow them to pursue the best medical care for them.
