Pericardial mesothelioma is much rarer than peritoneal mesothelioma and pleural mesothelioma. Only about one percent of all mesothelioma cases are pericardial mesothelioma. Pericardial mesothelioma affects the lining around the heart, which is called the pericardium.

If you were exposed to asbestos in your workplace, you may be entitled to compensation. You should know your legal options. Our firm is here for you. We understand the pain you are going through and the challenges you face. Our first focus is on our clients. You shouldn’t have to go through this alone.

Moreover, since mesothelioma can take up to 50 years to show signs in victims, many people are still alive who were exposed to large quantities of the substance before it was banned.
