Legal Assistance

Most mesothelioma lawsuits can be divided into 2 categories - one is where the person suffering from mesothelioma is living (a personal injury case) and in the second is where the person with mesothelioma cancer has died (wrongful death case), and the plaintiff is a spouse, relative and/or representative of the deceased person's estate. In cases where the person who would normally be the plaintiff is deceased, an alternate individual (usually the spouse or a close relative) will stand in as the plaintiff, and the injuries that are claimed include the loss of life itself. The most important part of a wrongful death case is locating persons who worked with the plaintiff to provide testimony that the deceased individual would have provided regarding work history and asbestos exposure.

In the case where a diagnosed client is unable to come to our offices, depositions (interviews) may be conducted at their home, hospital, or any other location which is comfortable and convenient to the client.
