Types of Mesothelioma Claims & How an Asbestos Lawyer Can Help

Mesothelioma claims help asbestos exposure victims and their families secure financial compensation to cover their medical bills, lost income, and other expenses associated with the disease. The mesothelioma attorneys at Morgan & Morgan specialize in asbestos cases. Let us handle all aspects of your claim while you focus on treatment.

Types of Mesothelioma Claims

Asbestos exposure claims fall into one of two categories: personal injury or wrongful death.

• Personal Injury Claims: Personal injury claims are filed by people who have recently been diagnosed with mesothelioma. The person filing the claim has been directly affected by exposure to asbestos and is seeking compensation to cover their medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other related damages.
• Wrongful Death Claims: Family members of mesothelioma victims file wrongful death claims after their loved one passes away. The victim’s family sues to receive compensation for the loss of expected income, medical bills, funeral costs, and other related expenses.

Mesothelioma Claims Process

If you are planning to pursue compensation for an asbestos-related injury — whether on behalf of yourself or a family member — choosing the right attorney is the first and most crucial step.

Mesothelioma claims are complex, and you need a lawyer with a capable legal team who isn’t afraid to take on the big asbestos manufacturers. At Morgan & Morgan, we have the resources, knowledge, and experience necessary to provide you the best service through every step of the claims process.

While each case is unique, mesothelioma claims typically involve:

• Collecting information about your case, such as your employment and medical history
• Identifying potential recovery trusts
• Filing a personal injury lawsuit if your asbestos exposure is linked to a company without an established trust
