Why the need for South Carolina mesothelioma litigation?
Unfortunately, just because there are governmental regulations regarding asbestos does not always mean that responsible parties who are obligated to follow them choose to do so. The result has been pericardial, peritoneal, and pleural mesothelioma diagnoses of increasing number and severity. Richardson, Patrick, Westbrook & Brickman, LLC, have won numerous cases surrounding mesothelioma litigation in South Carolina. We actively seek these cases because we believe that unscrupulous employers, builders, and manufacturers should not chose profits over the safety and health of others. Since this disease may not manifest itself for years or decades after the victim is first exposed, the statute of limitations is three years from the date of diagnosis, or when diagnosis should have been made. If you or a loved one has been told that either of you contracted the disease because of exposure that occurred long ago, South Carolina mesothelioma law still allows you to pursue the claim in court.
