Mesothelioma Lawsuits
We can help you file your Mesothelioma lawsuit. Deciding to file your Mesothelioma lawsuit is the essential first step in the legal process. An experienced Mesothelioma lawyer can help you file a lawsuit against asbestos companies to get you reparations for wrongful death, future medical expenses, pain and suffering, loss of spousal support, loss of parental care, and loss of income.
U. S. courts have determined that Asbestos companies and employers can be held liable for injuries that developed as a result of exposure to asbestos-containing products. Multi-Million dollar verdicts are being handed down by U. S. courts against asbestos companies who knew as far back as 1920 of the risks associated with breathing deadly asbestos fibers.
Most Mesothelioma victims are given 12-18 months to live after being diagnosed. Mesothelioma victims and their families are eligible to file a lawsuit against negligent asbestos companies to recover compensation for their damages.
Always remember that time is of the essence when filing a Mesothelioma lawsuit. Mesothelioma lawsuits have strict Statutes of Limitations to file your case after diagnosis.
Malignant Mesothelioma has been linked to workplace asbestos exposure.
Does Filing a Mesothelioma Lawsuit Cost Money for the Victim?
No. Most asbestos and mesothelioma cases are contingency fee basis cases. This means that the attorney fees will be a percentage (e.g, 33-40%) of the settlement with no out of pocket expenses to the client.
Will I have to Go to Court?
No. Most asbestos cases are settled before they ever get to a jury or courtroom.
Even if a lawsuit does go to court, you may not be required to make an appearance.
If I File My Lawsuit Out of State, Will I Have to Travel?
No. Asbestos companies have set up trust funds to pay diagnosed mesothelioma victims. These asbestos trust funds have more than 32 billion dollars in them.

What If I Don’t Want to Bring A Lawsuit Against Anyone?
You don’t have to bring a lawsuit against anyone. Asbestos companies have set aside funds for people diagnosed with mesothelioma and asbestos-related diseases. With a qualified asbestos attorney, the lawsuits process is easy and you do not have do much or appear in court if don’t want to.
Who Pays For Mesothelioma Claims?
U. S. Courts are holding asbestos manufacturers and distributors accountable for deadly asbestos exposure in the workplace and at home. Asbestos manufacturers made more than 3,000 asbestos-containing products pre 1980.
Asbestos companies have set up trust funds to pay diagnosed mesothelioma victims. These asbestos trust funds have more than 32 billion dollars in them.
A lawsuit can help pay for expensive medical treatments and help financially support a family needs in the future.
IMPORTANT! If a person does not claim the funds in time, the funds will go back to the companies that exposed them to asbestos.

Mesothelioma Quick Help
Mesothelioma Lawsuit Settlements
Your Mesothelioma lawsuit value will depend on how many asbestos-containing products you were exposed to, the number of defendants (asbestos companies) available, your age, earning capacity, and overall health. Mesothelioma cancers have links to asbestos exposure.
There is a long history of asbestos companies lying, deceiving, cheating, and conspiring to conceal the dangers of asbestos exposure from their workers. Many asbestos companies knowingly misled their workers about safety measures that could have prevented them from getting Mesothelioma and other asbestos-related diseases. A Mesothelioma diagnosis brings financial stress, loss of income, medical expenses, and treatments that may not be covered by health insurance. Filing a Mesothelioma lawsuit can help with these added expenses.
Mesothelioma Damages
Mesothelioma Lawsuit – Burden of Proof
The burden of proof in a Mesothelioma lawsuit is the responsibility of the person suffering from Mesothelioma (the plaintiff) to provide the documentation and information about their diagnosis and prior exposure to asbestos-containing products. A Mesothelioma diagnosis alone does not implicate an old employer.
The main question determined in a Mesothelioma lawsuit is the risk of exposure where you were exposed. There must be a clear link between the employer, a product, and a diagnosis. The laws regarding liability in a Mesothelioma lawsuit are very complex. Many of the original asbestos manufacturers have declared bankruptcy, changed their names, moved out of the U. S. or gone out of business. A Mesothelioma lawyer can help identify which asbestos-containing products you were exposed to and which defendants you can file your Mesothelioma lawsuit against.
Before the petition/complaint is filed, your Mesothelioma lawyer will meet with you to document your medical and work history. You will be asked for your medical records, social security records, and work history records. You may also be asked to take other medical tests or be seen by a Mesothelioma specialist to help with your case. Once your lawyer has gathered all the facts of your case, a petition/complaint will be filed with the court.
After the petition/complaint has been filed, the asbestos company’s lawyers will have a right to see your medical records, your work history records, supporting documents. They may choose to interview you through depositions. Your lawyer will help and advise you on the legality of the questions asked by the asbestos company’s legal team and whether or not you have to answer them.
Mesothelioma Lawsuit – The Legal Process
A Mesothelioma lawsuit begins when your lawyer files the petition/complaint with the court, and a copy of the petition/complaint is served to each defendant listed in the case. Each asbestos company (defendant) then has a specified amount of time (usually within 30-60 days) in which to present an answer to the court where your petition was filed.
Once the defendant’s answers are filed with the court, a trial date will be set. The trial date will depend on the court calendar and the backlog of cases. Usually, a trial date is determined a few months from the filing date. In many states that involve a living plaintiff suffering from malignant Mesothelioma, they move to the front of the line of the court calendar.
As your trial date approaches lawyers for both sides will begin negotiations for a settlement that works for both parties. Your Mesothelioma lawyer will bring you any agreement offers from the asbestos companies and counsel you on whether or not to take an offer. Many Mesothelioma and asbestos-related cases are settled out of court before the trial begins, but many are not.
Filing a Mesothelioma Lawsuit
A settlement from a Mesothelioma lawsuit can help cover the high medical costs and medical care for your Mesothelioma treatment. A Mesothelioma lawsuit can be filed by any person diagnosed with Mesothelioma from exposure to asbestos. If the person passes away from Mesothelioma, a wrongful death lawsuit can be filed by family members or the executor of the deceased’s estate.
Mesothelioma lawsuits are filed in multiple states in which you have the best chance of success and where you are likely to get the highest settlement. If a case goes through to trial, it will receive a jury verdict that could be appealed by the asbestos company’s named in your complaint.
Mesothelioma Lawsuit – Asbestos Bankruptcy Claims
In the past 40 years, more than 6,000 asbestos companies and manufacturers have been named in asbestos-related claims by more than 800,000 asbestos exposure victims. Mesothelioma and other asbestos-related cancers can have a latency period of 10 to 50 years.
During this time many asbestos companies have filed for bankruptcy protection. As part of their bankruptcy reorganization, these asbestos companies have set aside funds for future asbestos victims in trust funds. Today it is estimated that about 20 billion dollars are in Asbestos Trust Funds. Typically, settlements from Asbestos Bankruptcy Funds are smaller than cases that are brought to trial.
Mesothelioma Lawsuit – Representation Fees
Mesothelioma Lawsuits are costly to bring to trial. If a Mesothelioma lawyer asks you for money to help with expenses for your case, you should run the other way. All Mesothelioma and asbestos-related cases are “contingency-based cases,” meaning no out of pocket expenses to you or your family.
