Mesothelioma Resource Website Launch
Houston, TX (PRWEB) June 15, 2007 -- In reaction to the ever-growing body of news regarding asbestos exposure and the effects it can have on those who come into contact with this harmful substance, the law firm of Williams Kherkher of Houston, Texas has launched a Mesothelioma Legal Resource website, http://www.mesolawsuit.com/. This Web site is intended to be a resource for those who have come into contact with asbestos or been diagnosed with any of the medical conditions linked to asbestos exposure. Williams Bailey is led by Attorneys John Eddy Williams and Steve Kherkerk, and has 26 attorneys and over 120 support staff and has worked in the area of asbestos-related litigation since 1983.
Asbestos is a substance that was used commonly during the 20th Century in buildings and structures, as it was seen as a useful insulation material given its flame-retardant qualities. However, studies began to show that exposure to asbestos lead to serious medical consequences, including mesothelioma, asbestosis and several forms of cancer.
Traditionally, most patients suffering from asbestos-related diseases were adults, but recent news has shown that children could also be at risk. In a news article published on June 7, 2007 in the Baltimore Sun, it was reported that Violetville Elementary School was shut down after it was discovered that the floor tiles in the 3300 square-foot recreation center near the cafeteria contained asbestos.
The area was closed off and will remain so until the tiles are replaced. Even though officials claimed that these tiles did not pose an immediate health risk, the city of Baltimore has made replacing the tiles a priority.
Although most involved with this situation claim that there is no immediate danger as a result of the exposure, several studies and resources prove that the opposite is potentially true. Many cases of mesothelioma, asbestosis and cancer of the respiratory system can take years and even decades to fully appear inside a patient's body, and any exposure to this substance creates a potential risk, even in children. Bonnie Vogel, a local mother with four children who attend the school, is rightfully concerned.
"I don't really trust her going back in there," she said. "I'm a little leery sending her to school now because of all the problems they've been having."
