FAQ
Get answers to commonly asked questions about our legal services and learn how we may assist you with your case.
When is a Landlord Responsible for Asbestos Exposure?
A landlord may be responsible if they fail to maintain a safe environment in their property. This includes not properly managing or disclosing known asbestos-containing materials in the building.
If they neglect to remove or contain asbestos safely, leading to tenant exposure, they can be held liable, especially if this negligence results in health issues like mesothelioma.
When is An Employer Responsible?
You can hold an employer responsible for asbestos exposure under the following circumstances:
- failing to inform employees about the presence of asbestos;
- not providing adequate safety equipment in the workplace; and
- failing to implement safety measures to limit asbestos exposure.
When is a Product Manufacturer Liable?
Liability could fall on a product manufacturer if their products contain asbestos and they fail to warn users about the risks. Liability also arises if the products were designed or manufactured in a way that made them unsafe or if the manufacturer knew about the dangers but concealed that information. In such cases, the manufacturer can be sued for negligence or under product liability laws.
What Economic and Non-Economic Damages Can I Recover If I Win My Case?
Economic damages in such a case include medical expenses, lost wages, and loss of future earning potential. Non-economic damages, on the other hand, could cover pain and suffering, loss of quality of life, and emotional distress.
How Much Will It Cost Me To Hire a Reno Mesothelioma Lawyer?
At Morgan and Morgan, the fee is free unless our mesothelioma lawyers win the case for you. If they do, they'll only take a small percentage of the settlement or verdict to cover attorney fees and legal expenses involved.
Can I File a Lawsuit Against a Company That Is No Longer in Business?
Yes, you can. In many cases, such companies have established asbestos trust funds during bankruptcy proceedings to compensate victims. That's one of the many different places your compensation could come from.
Can I Sue Another Party if I've Already Filed a Workers' Compensation Claim?
Yes, that's also possible. Keep in mind that workers' compensation typically covers medical expenses and a portion of lost wages but does not include pain and suffering and other non-economic damages. Our attorney can help you explore other options to maximize your claim.
