Act now to pursue compensation for asbestos exposure before time runs out

Did you know that asbestos-related cancers are still diagnosed every day? You may have been exposed to asbestos and may be eligible to take legal action through a mesothelioma class action lawsuit. Fill out the form to learn more.

Modern safety regulations have reduced the risk of asbestos exposure in new construction and manufacturing. However, asbestos is still present in older buildings, materials and products — harming and killing people every day.

Globally, asbestos has caused more than 255,000 deaths. In the U.S. alone, over 40,000 asbestos-related deaths were reported among industrial workers in 2019. Many of those affected were exposed decades ago while working in shipyards, factories, power plants, construction sites, or while serving in the military. Others encountered asbestos at home — through insulation, tile, roofing or even contaminated consumer goods.

Because asbestos-related illnesses can take 20 to 50 years to develop, many people are only now receiving a diagnosis. That delay can be devastating — but it doesn’t prevent you from taking legal action.

If you or a loved one has been diagnosed with mesothelioma or another asbestos-related illness, you may still be eligible to file a claim and pursue compensation.

Do you qualify?

Residents in the United States — especially those in California and New York — who were exposed to asbestos and who in the last three years have been diagnosed with an asbestos-related illness, may be able to take legal action.

An asbestos lawsuit may result in compensation for your pain and suffering, medical expenses, lost wages and other damages. Check your eligibility using the form on this page.

What is asbestos, and how does it cause mesothelioma?

Asbestos is a naturally occurring mineral made up of durable, heat-resistant silicate fibers. It was widely used in construction, insulation, manufacturing and shipbuilding throughout the 20th century — despite its serious health risks.

When asbestos fibers are disturbed and inhaled, they can become trapped in the lungs and other internal tissues. Over time, this exposure can lead to serious illnesses, including:

  • Mesothelioma – a rare and aggressive cancer that affects the lining of the lungs or abdomen
  • Lung cancer
  • Asbestosis – a chronic lung condition
  • Cancers of the larynx, esophagus and colon

More than 125 million people have been exposed to asbestos in industrial workplaces, military settings and even in homes, offices, and schools built with asbestos-containing materials.

Are you eligible for a mesothelioma or asbestos lung cancer lawsuit?

As the long-term dangers of asbestos exposure have become clear, thousands of individuals and families have taken legal action. Manufacturers responsible for exposing workers and consumers to asbestos have faced thousands of mesothelioma lawsuits — many resulting in millions of dollars in compensation for victims.

If you or a loved one were exposed to asbestos and have been diagnosed with mesothelioma, asbestos-related illness or asbestosis within the past three years, you may be eligible to join a mesothelioma class action lawsuit.

An experienced legal team can help you understand your options and guide you through the next steps.
