Mesothelioma is a type of cancer that starts in the lining of the chest or abdomen. It is primarily caused by exposure to asbestos, which was widely used in commercial goods and construction before the ill effects were known. Despite this, mesothelioma is not classified as lung cancer and is treated differently.
If you or a loved one were diagnosed with mesothelioma in the New York State, you may be entitled to financial compensation. Contact the Porter Law Group today for a free case evaluation and learn about your legal options.

In New York State, you will generally have 3 years from the date of diagnosis, or 2 years from the date of death (for a wrongful death case) to file a claim. New York operates based on the discovery rule, which means the period starts tolling at the time of discovery, and not when actual exposure happened.
It is important to consult with a knowledgeable personal injury lawyer and have your case evaluated, so that you can see if your claim is still viable.
New York's industrial past has contributed much to the State's growth. But it has also left a wake of numerous asbestos-contaminated sites from back when the dangers of this substance were not yet widely known. The following locations have a history of asbestos use, and if you or a loved one previously worked in, or were exposed to asbestos in any of these areas and have suffered mesothelioma and other related symptoms, it is best to contact us for a free consultation to learn how you may recover compensation:
