For years the selection of mesothelioma and asbestos cancer apps for smartphones have fallen under two catagories:
If you download and install any of the currently available apps, I think you will agree. I think you may also agree that the information and content they provide are generally lacking, if not outright awful. The apps by law firms tend to be much better when they deliver content.
Our first thought was to create a better app that provides valuable information without showing ads. Additionally, informing people about why the law firm that sponsors the app had many advantages over the competitors.
We got very excited about this because we could see how much better our app would be. The app would help people and allow us to inform people why the sponsoring firm should be considered for their asbestos case or claim.
While designing the app, we realized that since mesothelioma is a rare disease, it didn't make sense for people to download and install another app when they may only use it one time. This seemed to explain why the existing apps were so low in overall quality.
There were not enough people who would install the app and continue using it. After all, the number of pages results in Google for the term "mesothelioma" is over 10 million. Why would anyone bother to install an app?
The last question led us to create the site you visit now, The Mesothelioma App Site. It is a website that looks and functions more like an app. You don't have to register or install anything.
It provides valuable information without requiring personal information, and there are no paid advertisements. It isn't cluttered with data taken from other sites and doesn't pretend to be a medical authority.
This site will be more helpful to people that a doctor already diagnosed. We do have a Symptom Checker that can help assess your risk of having an asbestos-related disease. The main functions are to help patients and families find the best medical care and understand what legal options they may have for financial compensation.
Once you feel comfortable, play with our Mesothelioma Claim Calculator. Our calculator is the original that provides a realistic estimate range based on the information you select.
While many factors affect what your claim is worth, the range should be accurate. You can use this estimate range as a guide when talking to different law firms. We welcome your feedback about this site and hope you find it helpful.
