Asbestos & Mesothelioma Lawyers and Attorneys

These attorneys represent people diagnosed with mesothelioma, asbestosis and asbestos-related lung cancer, and the families of those who have died. Claims are brought against manufacturers and suppliers of asbestos-containing products, against premises owners, and through the bankruptcy trusts established by companies that failed.

Cases are built on exposure history — where someone worked, which products were on that site, and in which years. Decades often separate exposure from diagnosis, which is why occupational history reconstruction is the core of the work.

Before you hire

• Start early after diagnosis. Many courts expedite mesothelioma cases, and testimony preserved while the client is well is important.
• Write down the full work history: employers, job sites, trades, dates, and colleagues who can corroborate.
• Ask whether the firm files trust claims as well as lawsuits, and how the two interact.
• These cases are handled on contingency; ask how costs are treated.

Products liability and personal injury cover the wider field.
