Because mesothelioma is rare, experience matters. Lawyers serving the Salem area know how to build a strong claim, pursue multiple sources of compensation, and protect your rights under Massachusetts law, all with no upfront cost to you.
Compensation available to Salem families
For many Salem residents, compensation covers far more than medical bills. It can replace lost wages, fund travel to specialists, and provide security for the family. Sources include trust funds, settlements, verdicts, and VA benefits.
Asbestos exposure in Massachusetts
Asbestos exposure is the primary cause of mesothelioma, and in Massachusetts, shipyards, manufacturing, and power plants were common sources of asbestos exposure. Because symptoms can take 20 to 50 years to appear, exposure that happened long ago may only be causing illness now.
