Who Can File a Mesothelioma Lawsuit?

Determining Your Asbestos Exposure History
Mesothelioma is a disease with a long latency period, which means it can take between 10-50 years for symptoms to develop. As a result, you may not remember exactly where, when, or how they were exposed to asbestos.
During the mesothelioma lawsuit process, your legal team will gather all of the necessary evidence to create a strong case with a higher probability of success — which includes pinpointing where and when asbestos exposure took place.

How Much Does It Cost to File a Mesothelioma Lawsuit?
LawFirm.com can connect you with mesothelioma law firms that work on a contingency-fee basis. Essentially, this means the law firm charges nothing upfront and there are no out-of-pocket expenses for the client.
The law firm only gets paid if the mesothelioma lawsuit succeeds in securing compensation. If successful, the law firm will accept a percentage of the payout.
If a mesothelioma lawsuit does not succeed in securing compensation for the victim or their estate, then there is no cost.

Why Should I Hire a Mesothelioma Lawyer?

In addition to holding these companies accountable, mesothelioma lawsuits may result in a settlement to cover the cost of lost wages, medical bills, and pain and suffering.
A mesothelioma lawyer will work with a victim to:
- Build a strong case by collecting evidence, including medical records, work history, and proof of past asbestos exposure
- Make sure a mesothelioma lawsuit is filed before the state’s deadline passes
- Negotiate mesothelioma settlements with the manufacturers of asbestos-containing products on your behalf
- Present the case at trial, if a mesothelioma settlement agreement cannot be reached
- Pursue compensation from asbestos trust funds and VA benefits as well if able
By working with a mesothelioma lawyer, many mesothelioma patients and their families are able to secure compensation without having to set foot in court.
