The Mesothelioma Compensation Center is now urging US Navy Veterans who have been diagnosed with mesothelioma to call them at 866-714-6466, not only for instant access to some of the nation's most skilled mesothelioma compensation attorneys, but also for a customized report based on the best treatment options in the immediate area or region of the diagnosed victim.
The Center says, "If a diagnosed victim who was exposed to asbestos while serving in the US Navy calls us we will instantly do the following:
- Provide instant access to the nation's most skilled mesothelioma compensation lawyers, who consistently get the best compensation results for their clients on a nationwide basis.
- Research the best private hospitals in the local area or region of the diagnosed victim, and prepare a customized report for the diagnosed victim and their family members (as opposed to looking only at the closest VA Medical Center). Given the fact that most diagnosed victims of mesothelioma are over 65 years old, Medicare should be used as opposed to VA benefits in our opinion.
- We will work one-on-one with the diagnosed victim on recalling how or where the Veteran could have been exposed to asbestos. In the 1950s, 1960s, and 1970s the US Navy had more than 500,000 US Navy Sailors, with an incredibly wide array of US Navy ships."

Information About Mesothelioma From the Mesothelioma Compensation Center for Diagnosed Victims and Their Families:
High risk groups for exposure to asbestos include the US Navy Veterans, power plant workers, shipyard workers, steel mill workers, oil refinery workers, manufacturing workers, plumbers, electricians, auto mechanics, machinists, construction workers, or miners. Typically the exposure to asbestos occurred in the 1950s, 1960s, 1970s or 1980s.

According to the US Centers for Disease Control the average age for a diagnosed victim of mesothelioma is 72 years old. Each year between 2500, and 3000 US citizens will be diagnosed with mesothelioma. Mesothelioma is attributable to exposure to asbestos.
