About Hector Herrera

Hector Herrera is a United States Navy veteran and the Director of Digital Strategy & Web Operations at Danziger & De Llano, LLP, the firm that sponsors Mesothelioma-Lung-Cancer.org. He builds and runs this site and the firm's other patient resource platforms. Veterans account for a substantial share of mesothelioma diagnoses in the United States, and writing accurately for them means getting right the details that are easy to miss from the outside: how claims and ratings actually move through the VA, how ships and shipboard spaces are described, how a military occupational specialty maps to the work someone really did, and where asbestos was encountered aboard vessels and at installations. That is the content he reviews. He is not an attorney and not a clinician. Legal content on this site is reviewed by the attorneys identified on their own profiles, and medical content by the clinicians identified on theirs.

Frequently Asked Questions

About Hector Herrera and our medical review process

What is Hector Herrera's role with Mesothelioma-Lung-Cancer.org?
He is a United States Navy veteran and the Director of Digital Strategy & Web Operations at Danziger & De Llano, LLP, the firm that sponsors this site. He builds and runs the site, and reviews veterans-facing content for accuracy.
What does he review?
Veterans-facing content — military terminology, ship and military occupational specialty classifications, and VA procedural detail. He does not review medical or legal content; those are reviewed by the clinicians and attorneys identified on their own profiles.
Why does military terminology accuracy matter for mesothelioma content?
Veterans make up a substantial share of mesothelioma diagnoses, largely from shipboard and shipyard exposure. Content that describes ships, ratings, occupational specialties or VA procedures incorrectly is not just imprecise — it can lead a veteran to conclude the information does not apply to him when it does.
