Being diagnosed with mesothelioma can bring on a set of physical, emotional, and financial challenges. Medical bills and related expenses may present a burden to you and your family. By seeking legal representation to help file a claim for compensation can get you the money you need to cover these expenses.

Medical Records

When looking for compensation for your mesothelioma or asbestos-related diagnoses, it is important to have medical documentation connecting your condition to a specific exposure. Your doctor can provide these for you. A legal representative can request these documents on your behalf when they file your claim.

Filing a Claim to get Compensation for your Mesothelioma Diagnosis

If you do not have a lawyer representing you, the asbestos company may try to take advantage of your lack of familiarity and have you settle for less, or nothing at all! A dedicated attorney who has knowledge of different trusts and their processes can make sure your claim is filed correctly and timely.

There are over 60 trusts that have money available for victims to claim. Each one has different processes, rules, and filing procedures. Attorneys know which trusts you are eligible for and the appropriate way to file for each.
