About Mesothelioma Claims For Remuneration

Filing a mesothelioma claim is the first step toward receiving remuneration for anyone who has been diagnosed with this deadly asbestos-related disease. If you or a loved one has received such a diagnosis, you could be entitled to receive compensation that covers expenses and lost income due to mesothelioma. This page provides details about the types of claims that can be filed, including legal actions, veterans’ benefits, and workers’ compensation claims.

Filing Asbestos-Related Claims
Asbestos is a dangerous substance that has been linked to a number of often deadly diseases including, but not limited to, mesothelioma and asbestosis. As a result, mesothelioma claims generally rely on several key pieces of information:

• How you were exposed to asbestos
• How long the exposure occurred
• How the exposure has affected your health, quality of life, and ability to work

Given the length of time that it takes for mesothelioma to develop, establishing all of the pertinent facts surrounding your exposure can be challenging. Perhaps you worked in multiple places where you handled or were exposed to asbestos. You may have been exposed to it second hand, such as through dust on a family member’s clothing or via asbestos-filled products and materials in your home.


Even if you don’t know exactly how you were exposed to asbestos, when diagnosed with mesothelioma, it’s important to consult with experienced mesothelioma lawyers about your possibility of filing a claim. Knowledgeable attorneys will ask questions about your work history, previous residences, and other details that can help you identify potential claims.

Claim Deadlines
How long you have to file a mesothelioma claim can vary depending on where you live and the type of claim you are filing.

Each state has its own laws, called statutes of limitations, that determine the time period within which a claim must be filed. Depending on the state, you may have as little as one year or as long as six years during which your asbestos claim can be filed.

The claim filing timeframe can also depend on which type of claim you are making (see below for a description of the different claim types). In some states, you have less time to file a wrongful death claim (filed by family members after a mesothelioma victim dies) than to file a personal injury claim (filed by a mesothelioma victim after diagnosis).


The following table provides the time limitations as defined by each state’s personal injury and wrongful death statutes. In each state, lawsuits must be filed before the limit has expired.

Types of Mesothelioma Claims
There are two types of claims that mesothelioma victims or their families can file. Which type of claim is filed depends on whether the person diagnosed with mesothelioma is still alive, or whether they have passed away.

Personal Injury Claims
A personal injury claim can be filed by someone who has recently been diagnosed with mesothelioma. With personal injury claims, the person directly affected by the disease is claiming that he/she should be compensated for things such as:

Medical expenses incurred during diagnosis and treatment, including future treatment
Lost wages or other income, including expected future income
Pain and suffering experienced because of an asbestos-related disease
Individuals diagnosed with mesothelioma can usually file personal injury claims in any state where he/she resided, worked, or served in the military.

Wrongful Death Claims
A wrongful death claim is filed by the mesothelioma victim’s family after their loved one has passed away. In this case, the family members sue to receive compensation related to the loss of their beloved. This can include:

• Loss of expected income due to the untimely death
• Medical costs incurred during treatment administered before the deceased’s passing
• Funeral expenses

The specific claims available to family members may vary from state to state. Discuss your claim options with a qualified attorney.
