What To Know About Asbestos-Related Mesothelioma Lawsuits

If you've been exposed to asbestos and been diagnosed with mesothelioma, you may be wondering if you can recover compensation via a lawsuit or legal claim. The answer is usually yes.

People who have been diagnosed with mesothelioma after working with or around asbestos have an excellent chance of receiving "damages" either from the company that manufactured or installed the asbestos, or from an insurance company or asbestos victims' trust fund that has assumed liability for the company. This is true even if the original manufacturer has long since shut its doors or even gone bankrupt, thanks to the formation of asbestos victims' trust funds.
