Asbestos Trust Funds
Asbestos Trust Funds and Mesothelioma
Asbestos Settlement Trusts were established to help compensate workers and their families for asbestos exposure, which causes Mesothelioma and other asbestos-related diseases. When an Asbestos company establishes a Trust Fund, all settlements are managed by trustees that decide the compensation amounts paid to Mesothelioma claimants.
U. S. Courts allow Asbestos defendants to file for protection under a legal process known as bankruptcy reorganization, which allows the company to pay claims and stay in business.
Victims of diagnosed with asbestos-related diseases may receive compensation from billion dollar asbestos trust funds or directly from the company responsible for their illness or death. Asbestos Trust Fund settlements typically do not come with an admission of guilt by the asbestos company that set up the trust.
In most Mesothelioma Cases, there are multiple settlement amounts from asbestos manufacturers and distributors throughout the U. S.
If you have a Mesothelioma, you have legal rights. But you need to act quickly because the statute of limitations in most states is 1-3 years.
It is crucial to contact a Mesothelioma lawyer soon after a Mesothelioma diagnosis that has experience with Mesothelioma Trust funds in all 50 states.
U. .S Asbestos Bankruptcy Trusts Funds have paid out nearly 21 billion to more than 600,000 asbestos claimants. There are about 70+ active Asbestos Trust Funds with an estimated $32 billion in remaining assets.

How Do Mesothelioma Trust Funds Work?
Asbestos exposure victim’s diagnosed with mesothelioma and other asbestos-related diseases can submit their claims to asbestos settlement trusts belonging to the bankrupt asbestos companies responsible for their illness.
