USA Clients
Representation for Asbestos Exposure in the United States
If you’re a Canadian who worked in the U.S., or a U.S. resident diagnosed with mesothelioma, Miskin Law can help. We handle cross-border asbestos claims and have decades of experience navigating both U.S. and Canadian legal systems. If you worked in the U.S., you may be eligible for additional compensation through U.S. courts. This includes the ability to sue asbestos manufacturers that do not have trust funds.
We work closely with several experienced U.S. lawyers to file these lawsuits. While U.S. litigation often takes longer than trust claims, it can result in significantly higher compensation. Our firm has recovered over $200 million for mesothelioma clients. Contact us to learn what legal options are available to you.
Understanding Asbestos and Mesothelioma Cancer
Asbestos is made of natural minerals and fibers but is incredibly carcinogenic. Unfortunately, it was widely used in construction before anyone understood the health impacts, including mesothelioma cancer. Despite the dangers, asbestos is only regulated in the United States – not banned. We step in when companies neglect their responsibilities and regulators fail to hold them responsible, resulting in life-changing illnesses. Certain professions and actions are at high risk, including:
- Shipbuilding
- Pipefitters
- Boiler Workers
- Electricians
- Millwrights
- Insulators
- Plumbers
- Automotive Repair
- Building and Equipment Maintenance
- Renovation and Demolition

Asbestos and Mesothelioma Lawyers
Mesothelioma cancer is caused by asbestos exposure that affects the thin cell wall lining of the body’s internal organs. The first symptoms of Mesothelioma may include shortness of breath, fatigue, wheezing, coughing, fever, sweating, chest pain, unexplained weight loss, and pain or swelling in the abdomen. The prognosis for Malignant Mesothelioma is poor because the disease is usually diagnosed in its later stages after symptoms have appeared. You may be entitled to compensation.
