If you’re a mesothelioma patient and you’ve made the decision to seek justice against the companies that are responsible for your exposure to asbestos, your next step is to choose an attorney that will represent you as you pursue a mesothelioma lawsuit.
Many people naturally turn to friends, family members or neighbors who are attorneys, thinking that they will be able to represent you in a way that will cause you the least disruption and stress.
If the attorney that you are thinking of is truly interested in what is best for you, they will provide you with a referral, or advise you to work with an experienced mesothelioma attorney with litigation success; this is because mesothelioma lawsuits pose special challenges and require a very specific skill set and pool of knowledge.
Choosing a Mesothelioma Lawyer
It is essential that an attorney filing a mesothelioma lawsuit not only possesses strong knowledge of the law regarding personal injury and asbestos cases, but also that they have a thorough understanding of the disease itself.
Our attorneys have spent over two decades filing lawsuits on behalf of mesothelioma patients and winning them the maximum compensation that they are entitled to for the wrongs that were committed against them.

Tracking Mesothelioma and the Companies that Cause It
One of the most difficult aspects of preparing a lawsuit on behalf of a mesothelioma patient is in determining exactly where the responsibility for the client’s disease lies.
There are literally hundreds of companies that either required their employees to work with or around mesothelioma or who provided the products that contained mesothelioma to those companies that tracking them down can be a job unto itself.
Figuring this puzzle out entails many steps, starting with gathering complete information about the client’s work history from their very first job forward, to where they lived, and even including the jobs that their parents or close family members worked in.
Once all of this information is gathered the hunt begins, trying to match up the history with the records of previous mesothelioma cases that make up all of the legal history revolving around the disease and other asbestos-related illnesses.
Once a match has been made between the client’s history and a company that has a proven record of having exposed people to asbestos, the next step is determining the current status of the company itself.
Mesothelioma Trust Fund
Many companies that have been involved in mesothelioma or asbestos-related litigation have either closed, or declared bankruptcy in order to set up a bankruptcy trust in order to control their asbestos-related expenses, or have been purchased by another company or moved out of the country.
None of these actions absolve the company of their responsibility for the injury they have caused, but they can complicate the case proceedings. This is another reason why it is so important that you are represented by an attorney who has been exposed to these types of complications in the past and knows how to deal with them.
We have been representing mesothelioma victims for over two decades, and they know how to handle every complexity that might arise.
Mesothelioma Attorneys Have Vast Resources
One of the biggest advantages of working with an attorney who specializes in representing mesothelioma patients is that they have vast resources that they can use to help in the investigation and preparation of your case.
Our lawyers have spent years building their database of mesothelioma cases and the companies that have been involved with them.
They also have established a wide network of expert witnesses upon whom they can rely not only for helping to pinpoint the source (or sources) of your asbestos exposure, but are also able to provide important evidence in court to convince a judge or jury about the damage that you endured.
Going through mesothelioma treatments and dealing with all of the personal and other issues that it involves can be stressful and exhausting. You don’t need anything else to worry about, and you especially shouldn’t have any doubts about the qualifications or abilities of the attorney representing your mesothelioma lawsuit.
