Mesothelioma Trial Attorneys

Mesothelioma cases come with complications unique to the disease. Because symptoms don’t appear for decades, tracking down the companies responsible for your pain can be difficult. If a company no longer exists or operates under a different name, filing a lawsuit isn’t impossible—but it isn’t easy for someone who doesn’t have experience developing these cases for trial. Mesothelioma attorneys understand how these cases work and how to pursue the right parties for compensation.

Attorneys who represent mesothelioma cases operate with a “contingency fee” arrangement. Simply put, clients pay nothing upfront for the preparation of their case, the investigative resources, or the court fees—the law firm pays for everything. If your case wins, the law firm receives a percentage of the verdict or settlement. If you case does not win, you owe the firm nothing. This ensures that you have nothing to lose and that anyone has the ability to hold their wrongdoers in court.

States will vary, but the common statute of limitations is 2 to 3 years. That means from the date you are diagnosed with mesothelioma (or the date you learn a loved one’s death was caused by mesothelioma), you have a 2-3 years to file a lawsuit against those responsible. In legal terms, that is not a lot of time—especially considering that law firms have to determine who is at fault and whether they can be sued. In other words, you need to act as quickly as possible to get your case started.
