Review of Our Services
“My wife was diagnosed with peritoneal mesothelioma. She is only 48 and we had no idea where to go or what to do.
David and Anna were great. In less than a week we went from being lost and overwhelmed to getting the best treatment in the country. We have also filed for compensation and it looks like we will have some funds for treatment by the end of the year.
Overall I would rate the people at Mesothelioma.net a 10/10.”
