Am I entitled to file a lawsuit if I think I have been affected by asbestos?
You can only file a law suit if you have definitely been affected by asbestos, which means seeking medical assistance and getting a diagnosis of mesothelioma as soon as possible. Once your diagnosis has been confirmed by your doctor, you should then seek legal assistance as soon as possible to file your lawsuit for compensation. Your lawyer will need to have details of your diagnosis in order to put together your law suit. More »

In the event that the person has passed away, the lawsuit can be filed by a family member or the executor of the deceased’s estate.

Failing to adhere to this could render your case ineligible, and you could miss out on a hefty payout which could help you and your family through this difficult time. More »
