NEW YORK, Jan. 16, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- The Mesothelioma Victims Center says, "We fear many US Navy Veterans recently diagnosed with mesothelioma, or their families, will put off talking to qualified lawyers to assist with a mesothelioma compensation claim. We frequently talk to Navy Veterans with mesothelioma who seem shocked when we inform them their mesothelioma compensation claim could be worth a million dollars or more.
"If you are a US Navy Veteran, or this is a loved one searching for information about financial compensation, please call us at 800-714-0303 so we can explain two things:
- "Please don't wait too long to begin the financial compensation claims process. The diagnosed US Navy Veteran may not be able to provide full details about the specifics of how they were exposed to asbestos due to their physical decline from this aggressive form of cancer.
- "Without legal representation from some of the nation's most skilled and experienced mesothelioma attorneys, a US Navy Veteran diagnosed with this rare cancer may be shortchanged on compensation to the tune of hundreds of thousands of dollars or more."
"We are not a law firm. We are the nation's best-branded advocates for people with mesothelioma receiving the best possible financial compensation settlement." http://MesotheliomaVictimsCenter.Com
The Mesothelioma Victims Center specializes in US Navy Veterans who sustained asbestos exposure while at a shipyard where their ship was in for a retrofit or overhaul. The Veteran was frequently a machinist, boiler technician, electrician, pipefitter, mechanic, fireman, welder, steamfitter, or a millwright. A mesothelioma compensation claim for a US Navy Veteran with this cancer probably will increase dramatically if the Navy Veteran was required to stay on board their ship while it was undergoing an overhaul or retrofit.
