The Mesothelioma Victims Center says, "If a diagnosed victim of mesothelioma, or family members of a diagnosed victim, is concerned about getting the best mesothelioma compensation results, it is incredibly important that everyone involved gets organized as quickly as possible. As we would like to explain, we can help families who call 866-714-6466 get organized. The potential for receiving the best possible compensation could be dramatically reduced for those who aren't prepared and act swiftly. Potential treatment options could go by the way side, and not having vital documents, like a properly executed will, could also prove to be disastrous for all concerned."
The most common mesothelioma compensation mistakes made are:
- The diagnosed victim and/or their family members hire a cable TV or Internet mesothelioma marketing law firm, as opposed to one of the nation's most skilled mesothelioma compensation lawyers. This mistake could end up costing hundreds of thousands, or possibly more than one million dollars in lost compensation.
- The diagnosed victim of mesothelioma or their family hires a local personal injury law firm, as opposed to one of the nation's leading mesothelioma law firms that only handles mesothelioma compensation claims on a nationwide basis.
The most common document-related mistakes made by victims of mesothelioma and their family members:
- The victim does not have a properly executed will.
- The victim appoints a new wife as executor of the will, who proceeds to cut the victim's biological children out of the will.
- The diagnosed victim does not give power of attorney to a very trusted family in the event the victim is no longer able to make decisions on their own.
"With the average age of diagnosed victims of mesothelioma being around 70 years old, one of the largest problems we try to clear the air about is misdiagnosis of pneumonia. It's quite common for doctors to see the signs of mesothelioma manifesting as pneumonia in this age demographic as the cancer is rare."
"As we would like to explain to a victim or their family members, pretty much every region of the nation has world-class cancer treatment centers that may be able to help the diagnosed victim extend their life. However, it is incredibly vital to move fast on treatment options, because mesothelioma can be so aggressive."
