WASHINGTON, March 9, 2015 /PRNewswire/ — The Mesothelioma Victims Center believes most carpenters, electricians, and plumbers diagnosed with mesothelioma and/or their family get far less than they deserve with respect to compensation because they didn't know how to find one of the nation's mesothelioma compensation attorneys.

The Mesothelioma Victims Center is urging all diagnosed victims of mesothelioma exposed to asbestos while working as a carpenter, electrician, or a plumber to call them at 866-714-6466 to ensure they really are dealing with a qualified lawyer to advance a mesothelioma compensation claim. This invitation is also extended to the family of a diagnosed victim of mesothelioma in the event they are unable to call on their own.
Why make a big deal about locating one of the nation's mesothelioma compensation lawyers for diagnosed victims?
The Mesothelioma Victims Center says, "The two biggest mistakes a diagnosed victim and/or their family can make is A) Hiring a less-than-experienced lawyer to advance a mesothelioma compensation claim B) Not doing enough research or reading the fine print on cable TV mesothelioma commercials. As a group of dedicated professionals who work endlessly to provide families with the best information on mesothelioma, we grow sick of seeing mesothelioma commercials that lure victims in with the promise of free/easy money.
"Based on our experience this is especially a problem for former plumbers, electricians, and carpenters who have been recently diagnosed with mesothelioma. Another problem we know is occurring is that victims assume that the attorneys in their hometown are the only attorneys who can handle mesothelioma compensation claims.
"We don't hide anything. We tell everyone who contacts us that there are only a handful of the nation's most skilled mesothelioma lawyers who we feel can really handle these types of compensation claims. If a diagnosed victim and/or their family members are concerned about receiving the best possible compensation, contact us at 866-714-6466 or http://MesotheliomaVictimsCenter.Com so we can pass on our knowledge of what to expect."
