Red Flag Warnings On Common Internet Or Cable TV Mesothelioma Marketing Firm Gimmicks From The Mesothelioma Victims Center:
- Any cable TV ad or Internet web site that says "national mesothelioma claims." The Mesothelioma Victims Center says, "There is no such thing as a national mesothelioma compensation claims center that is sponsored by the government."
- Any Internet or cable TV ad that uses keywords such as "Truth" and "Justice" as their focal point to draw mesothelioma victims in.
- The phrase, "We will send you a book answering thousands of questions about mesothelioma." To put it simply, diagnosed victims don't have time to wait on the mail to deliver this book.
- The Mesothelioma Victims Center says, "Any local personal injury attorney that suggests experience with mesothelioma but also lists dog bites, truck accidents, medical malpractice, etc. on their website. The reason should be clear on this one. You want an expert to handle your mesothelioma compensation claim, and if you call us at 866-714-6466, you will get just that-instant access to the nation's most skilled mesothelioma attorneys." http://MesotheliomaVictimsCenter.Com
