Over $30 Billion Available from over 60 Trust Funds for Mesothelioma Victims
Mesothelioma is a rare but aggressive cancer caused by exposure to asbestos. Asbestos exposure is the primary cause of mesothelioma and was used in various car parts, construction supplies, military ships and shipyards, and cosmetic products. Companies that used asbestos after 1918 knew that it was a dangerous material and was potentially harmful to workers, their family members and the general public, yet even knowing these risks, continued to use asbestos.
What Are My Legal Rights To Mesothelioma Compensation?
Most people who have been diagnosed with mesothelioma qualify for some compensation. However, there are time limits to recovery. Our team of nurses, advocates, investigators, and lawyers will help you navigate your mesothelioma diagnosis and assist with determining whether you qualify for compensation. If you qualify, below are important points regarding your legal rights to mesothelioma compensation.
Tax Free Compensation
Since the compensation is not income, all mesothelioma compensation is tax free.
No Class Action
Mesothelioma claims are not part of any class action lawsuit.
Other Benefits Unaffected
Workers comp, disability or other benefits are unaffected from collecting mesothelioma compensation.
There is a Time Limit
Claims must be filed within a certain amount of time or you may lose your right to compensation. This time limit varies from state to state.
Family Rights if Loved One Has Passed
Family members still have rights to recover compensation if their loved one who suffered from mesothelioma has passed away.
Money Already Set Aside
Often, the compensation has already been set aside for you and, if you do not claim it in time, the company that exposed you may get the money back.
No Lawsuit Required
If the company involved has established a trust fund, no lawsuit is required to file the claim.

Our firm will never bill you for our work. We only get paid if we recover compensation on your behalf. There is no risk to you.
