Was the diagnosis confirmed by a biopsy?

A biopsy is a tissue sample tested by a lab, usually taken with a needle or during surgery.

Before 1982, was the person diagnosed exposed to asbestos for at least 5 years?

Most often through work in construction and building trades, shipyards or the Navy, factories, refineries, power plants, steel mills, railroads, or brake and auto repair.

The litigation

Why asbestos claims are still being filed today

Asbestos was used for most of the twentieth century in insulation, brake pads, cement, flooring, gaskets, and hundreds of other products. Decades of litigation have shown that many manufacturers knew breathing its fibers could cause fatal disease, yet kept selling it, often without warning the workers who handled it every day.

Asbestos diseases can take 20 to 50 years to appear, which is why people who worked in shipyards, construction, power plants, and factories decades ago are being diagnosed now. Most cases of mesothelioma are caused by asbestos, and asbestos exposure also significantly raises the risk of lung cancer, especially for people who also smoked.

Many of the companies responsible went bankrupt and were required to fund trusts that still pay claims today, separate from lawsuits against companies still in business. Filing deadlines are short, in many states just one to three years from a diagnosis or a loved one’s death, so it’s important to act quickly.

Questions, answered

Mesothelioma and lung cancer claim FAQ

Who qualifies for a mesothelioma or asbestos lung cancer claim?
People diagnosed with mesothelioma, and people diagnosed with lung cancer who worked for years around asbestos, typically before the early 1980s. The diagnosis generally needs to be confirmed by a biopsy. Family members may also file on behalf of a loved one who has passed away. A free case review confirms eligibility for your specific situation.
What if I don’t know where the asbestos exposure happened?
That’s common. Asbestos diseases often appear decades after exposure, and many people never knew asbestos was in the products they worked around. Experienced attorneys investigate work history, job sites, and products to identify where the exposure happened.
Can my family file if my loved one has passed away?
In many cases, yes. Spouses, children, or the estate may be able to bring a wrongful death claim. Deadlines often run from the date of death, so it’s important to speak with an attorney promptly.
Does a smoking history prevent a lung cancer claim?
Not necessarily. Smoking and asbestos exposure together greatly increase the risk of lung cancer, and a history of smoking does not by itself rule out a claim. Every case is evaluated individually.
How much does it cost to file a claim?
Nothing upfront. Attorneys in our network work on contingency, meaning they are only paid if your case results in compensation. The review is free, confidential, and carries no obligation.
Is there a deadline to file?
Yes, and asbestos deadlines can be short. In many states you have as little as one to three years from a diagnosis or a loved one’s death. Speaking with an attorney promptly is the only way to know the deadline that applies to you.
