[Visitor] My name is [Visitor] and we recently recieved news that our father in law has been diagnosed with mesothelioma, we are concerned about this, and looking to see what steps we can take in this matter to form a case on his behalf against whomever may be responsible for exposing him to asbestos
[Operator] I understand. I am very sorry to hear about father.
[Operator] Do you know where your father was working when he was exposed to asbestos?
[Visitor] we believe he was exposed to a degree when working for a school system in Indiana, we also believe that the house he has lived in for the last 20 years may also have asbestos insulation in it, It is a very old house, and not up to code from what we can see
[Operator] Does he own the home that he has lived in?
[Visitor] No he rents the home
[Operator] Ok.
[Operator] I know you said he was recently diagnosed, when did he find out for sure that is was mesothelioma?
[Visitor] He's been in the hospital for almost three weeks now, and they have only just diagnosed him because they had to drain fluid from his lungs last thursday and saw the mesothelioma on his chest wall we were given clear diagnosis from his physician yesterday.
