When you or a loved one has been diagnosed with an asbestos-related injury such as mesothelioma, it may be the first time you have ever considered hiring an asbestos attorney. Choosing the right asbestos cancer lawyer can give you peace of mind during the difficult times of medical treatments, bills, and other stressful events. Attorneys who handle asbestos claims vary widely in their approaches. Many asbestos attorneys will offer an initial consultation after which they will be able to evaluate the strength of a case. While this prescreening is often done over the phone, an in-person consult is important and useful as it will enable you to get to know the lawyer, the firm, the types of resources the firm has and how it is likely to handle your asbestos-related disease case.

我什么时候应该就石棉接触问题联系律师？
这个问题在涉及有毒物质的案件中尤其重要。例如，与车祸不同的是，车祸中的伤害往往很明显，而与石棉相关的疾病的症状可能需要几十年的时间才能显现出来。间皮瘤等癌症可能要在初次接触后 5 至 70 年后才会出现。
