Lawyer and on-site legal advisor Joe Lahav discusses how a mesothelioma attorney can help you understand the exact details of your asbestos exposure.

A lot of people have this question. There's a lot of confusion because people say, hey, look, I have idea. And in some cases, even you'll have wives or loved ones who are secondarily exposed, meaning that they got exposed to products that were brought home in the hair or on the clothing of a loved one. So they certainly don't know what kind of asbestos they were around. The important thing to understand is the attorneys know this very, very well. There's not a lot of attorneys that do this, but the ones that do it tend to be experts in it. So they're gonna understand where you are exposed? What kind of job sites had a lot of asbestos at them? What kind of products had a lot of asbestos in them? And what they do typically is they'll sit down you. And they'll work up your job history or your loved one's job history or a parent or something like that that you might have been exposed second rarely through. And they'll say, Hey, look, where do they work? What kind of products were they around? What jobs did they do? And they can figure it out that way. The attorneys know this very, very well. And even if whatever reason you were secondarily exposed and your loved ones are dead. So you think I might not have a claim. Usually what they'll do in that situation is they'll find co workers of your loved one. And they'll look up for those people, and they'll talk to those people and figure out what your loved one did at work. So it's very, very common. People don't know, but the lawyers really understand this process very well and make it very smooth for you.
