Bladder Cancer Types
Bladder cancer can be either superficial (cancer that is confined to the lining of the organ) or invasive (cancer that spreads through the lining and into the muscle wall of the bladder). Invasive bladder cancer can potentially spread to closer organs and lymph nodes.
There are three types of bladder cancer named for the type of cells that become malignant:
-
Transitional cell carcinoma (Urothelial carcicoma): This is the most common type of bladder cancer. It is caused when cancer begins in the transitional cells, which form the innermost lining of the bladder wall. Many urothelial cell carcinomas are classified as superficial.
-
Squamous cell carcinoma: Squamous cells are flat, thin cells that normally form in the bladder when irritation, inflammation or infection has existed in the bladder for a long period of time. Squamous cell carcicoma originates from these cells. Most squamous cells carcinomas are invasive.
-
Adenocarcinoma: This type of cancer originates in glandular (secretory) cells which produce and release specialized fluids. Nearly all adenocarcinomas are invasive.
Testimonials
From the very first contact with them, I felt without a doubt that I was in good, capable hands.
Your firm was with us every step of the way during a very trying time in our lives. We know we chose an excellent Law Firm to represent us.

Once we read your literature we felt you were the powerhouse we needed.
While pounding away with all the legal issues you never seemed to lose track of the real people in those issues.
Thank goodness there are people like you who are so knowledgeable and compassionate.
I have given a lot of thought to how to say "thank you." Nothing special enough comes to mind so here I am writing a standard thank-you note. However, this thank-you is anything but standard...
Families and individuals who allow you the opportunity to represent them are making an extremely wise decision.
I encountered nothing but the highest level of professionalism combined with extraordinary kindness and understanding.
There isn't much more I can muster right now----everything seems so surreal. Although our journey/fight together is winding down, y'all will never get rid of me. You are forever a part of our family and support system...
They are genuinely concerned about their clients, and truly got to know of our concerns and problems.
You were very caring to my family and went the extra mile to make sure that we were satisfied.
