Mesothelioma Settlements and Case Results

$500+ MILLION
In Settlements And verdicts

A mesothelioma settlement can provide hundreds of thousands or millions in compensation for the financial and emotional toll of asbestos exposure. Mesothelioma is an aggressive cancer that can dramatically shorten your life. Although treatment may improve your quality of life, it is unlikely to increase your life expectancy by more than a few months. It is a devastating diagnosis that affects the whole family.

The primary cause of mesothelioma is asbestos exposure. You may be able to file a mesothelioma lawsuit if you have a confirmed mesothelioma diagnosis and you know how you were exposed to asbestos. Our experienced mesothelioma lawyers have recovered over $360 million in compensation, including numerous multimillion-dollar mesothelioma settlements and case results. We can investigate your case, determine how you were exposed to asbestos, and recover the compensation you deserve.

Asbestos & Mesothelioma Settlements

Most successful mesothelioma lawsuits are resolved in pre-trial settlements. When you hire a mesothelioma lawyer, your lawyer will initiate a case investigation, calculate your damages, and make a written demand for full compensation from the responsible companies. Companies typically deny responsibility and refuse to pay. Your attorney will then file a lawsuit and begin settlement negotiations. Settlement negotiations may begin at any point after the defendants receive the demand letter, even before the lawsuit is filed.

Once the lawsuit is filed, your case will enter the discovery phase, which involves both sides sharing evidence. This phase can take several months. Discovery is important in settlement negotiations because defendants are more likely to settle fairly when they see that the evidence is strong enough to hold up in court.

If the defendants refuse to pay a fair settlement, your case will go to trial, where the attorney will present your evidence to a judge or jury. The outcome of a trial is known as a verdict or judgment. In civil cases, verdicts include two parts: the first part determines whether the defendant is liable, and the second part determines how much compensation the defendant owes.
