What is Mesothelioma?

Houston, Texas and across the nation

Mesothelioma is a rare and terrible form of cancer. It is caused by breathing asbestos fibers. Mesothelioma tumors grow in the lining that protects the body's internal organs (the mesothelium). Pleural mesothelioma tumors develop in the lining of the lungs (the pleura). Peritoneal mesothelioma tumors arise in the lining of the abdomen (the peritoneum). Pericardial mesothelioma tumors grow in the lining that surrounds the heart (the pericardium). Whether it occurs in the pleura, the peritoneum, or the pericardium, mesothelioma is a stealthy, aggressive, and grave form of cancer.

Mesothelioma is a disease with a long latency period-people develop mesothelioma decades after they were exposed to asbestos. Many Americans were exposed to asbestos from asbestos-containing products in their workplace or homes. Because of mesothelioma's long latency period, approximately 3,000 Americans continue to develop mesothelioma each year.

The companies that made their money by making, selling, or using asbestos-containing products knew, or should have known, that the asbestos in their products could kill people. Continuing to use asbestos in their products-when they knew that asbestos could kill-was wrong. Today, thousands of Americans suffer from asbestos diseases because of these corporate decisions to put profits before people.

Heard Robins' attorneys have vast experience in helping mesothelioma victims and their families. See our asbestos settlements and verdicts. The purpose that drives our work each day is twofold: (1) to help Americans who are afflicted with this terrible disease; and (2) to hold the corporations who put profits before people accountable-and deter corporations from again jeopardizing Americans' health and safety.
