Families of victims are entitled to millions in compensation, even if the claims process couldn't begin before the loved one passed
WASHINGTON, Feb. 10, 2014 /PRNewswire/ — The Mesothelioma Victims Center says, "In many instances, we are not afforded the opportunity or privilege of talking to the actual diagnosed victim of mesothelioma because they have already passed away. Just in the last month we spoke to a family whose loved one was being treated for pneumonia, and died. A autopsy revealed the cause of death was from a rare form of cancer called mesothelioma; not pneumonia. In another example the family of a diagnosed victim of mesothelioma, had only a few days after the actual diagnosis before he died. The good news in both instances the family members called us, and we were able to help these grieving families get to the nation's best mesothelioma compensation attorneys."

"After speaking with both of these families, it was clear that they were scrambling to figure out what to do next.
