If you or a family member has developed mesothelioma and you are contemplating whether or not to file a lawsuit, you may have a lot of questions about the process and what to expect. We understand the stress that you need to endure as you undergo treatment for your condition while you seek out legal counsel. You have enough to worry about already and we can build your case for you while you focus on getting well so that you know you have an advocate fighting on your behalf that will look out for your best interests.
Understanding the Details of your Case
Many of the questions that you have simply cannot be answered without additional details and it is our goal to gather all of the information about your case that we need in order to give you the best advice on a course of action. The first step is to determine who is at fault for your medical problem and to compile all of the evidence we need in order to build a case against the appropriate parties. If it is not advantageous to involve some parties, we will let you know and inform you of which individuals or companies we feel you have the best case against and our strategy for moving forward.
Every case is worth a different amount in damages and we have access to medical professionals who are able to accurately assess the cost of your future medical care and investigators who are able to prove whether or not your employer of the manufacturer of the products responsible for your illness is guilty of negligence. If it is determined that the responsible party was especially reckless or made an attempt to cover its tracks, we may seek compensation in the form of punitive damages as well.
Getting Started With an Asbestos-Exposure Claim
Understand that it will take time to compile your case, however, and you have a limited amount of time to file a lawsuit from the moment that you were diagnosed with mesothelioma.
