Four Questions to Ask Your Mesothelioma Lawyer

Four Questions to Ask Your Mesothelioma Lawyer

If you’ve recently been diagnosed with mesothelioma and believe you may be entitled to compensation, you will need to hire the services of a qualified mesothelioma lawyer. Not every mesothelioma law firm will be suited to your needs, that is why you need to ask certain questions before you decide on the law firm to represent you. Here are four questions you should always consider.

1. Who Will Handle My Case?

Not all law firms specialize in mesothelioma cases. They can certainly review all of your documentation and decide if you have a case, but they may refer you to a different mesothelioma law firm. While there is certainly nothing wrong with that, you will want to find a law firm that will work with you to ensure that you receive the mesothelioma compensation you deserve.

2. Does Your Firm Have Experience With Cases Like Mine?

If the mesothelioma law firm of your choice will take your case, you should ask what kind of experience they have with cases similar to yours. As a rule, you should stick with a more experienced mesothelioma law firm for your case.

3. How Soon Should I File a Lawsuit?

Each state has its own statute of limitations for certain legal actions involving asbestos-related health conditions. Since mesothelioma is often diagnosed several years after the initial asbestos exposure, you should make sure that you are eligible, based on your states statute of limitations, to file a suit when you speak to a mesothelioma lawyer.

4. Is the Mesothelioma Law Firm Familiar With Trust Submissions?

A significant portion of the money received in a mesothelioma lawsuit comes from the Trusts that have been set up by bankrupt asbestos companies.  These Trusts were ordered to be set up by bankruptcy courts.  The Trusts have millions of dollars to pay to mesothelioma victims but there are many restrictions such as work years, work sites, whether there is underlying lung disease in a mesothelioma victim, etc.  The products that the victim worked with are also limited in terms of making the Trust pay.  Also, the claim submission process is very complicated and if your claim is not made properly the Trust will deny the claim and the process must be started all over again.

Make sure that you choose a mesothelioma firm that is familiar with these details.  The mesothelioma law firm Goldberg, Persky, and White is ranked 2nd in the entire country in getting claims paid by these Trusts. Contact GPW today if you want to maximize your claim in the shortest amount of time possible.
