Mesothelioma Attorney in Bradenton

Mesothelioma claims fall into these three categories:

• Personal injury claims 
• Wrongful death 
• Asbestos trust fund claims 

The right pathway to obtaining the compensation you need and deserve will depend on the specifics of your case.

That could solidify your case. That’s because mesothelioma often takes decades to develop after asbestos exposure. For this reason, in Florida, you can file a claim years after exposure. The key is the 'discovery rule,' which allows you to file within four years after diagnosis, regardless of when the exposure occurred.

If a company responsible for your asbestos exposure filed for bankruptcy, you might still be able to seek compensation through an asbestos trust fund. These funds are specifically set up to provide compensation to mesothelioma victims.

You can still file a mesothelioma claim even if you're no longer employed by the company where you were exposed to asbestos. That’s because liability for your condition is based on exposure, employed or not.

It will depend on factors like medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, the extent of the company's negligence, and the severity of your exposure. A Morgan and Morgan mesothelioma lawyer can help estimate the value based on the specifics of your case. 

In most cases, compensation for mesothelioma covers economic and non-economic damages. Where applicable, these may include but are not limited to the following: 

• Medical expenses
• Lost wages
• Future earning capacity
• Funeral expense
• Pain and suffering
• Emotional distress
• Loss of consortium
• Loss of enjoyment of life
