Qualities of a Great Mesothelioma Lawyer
When seeking out an attorney who can help you receive
compensation for your asbestos-related injury, there are several qualities you
should look for.
A Great Mesothelioma Lawyer Should Be
Understanding
A great mesothelioma lawyer is compassionate, understanding,
and sensitive to what you and your family are going through. They will take the
time to understand your situation, listen to the concerns you have, and
comprehend the problems and complications you are facing. If your attorney is
not willing to sit down and understand how asbestos exposure has affected your
life, then find one who will.
Knowledgeable
The best mesothelioma attorneys focus exclusively on
asbestos litigation. In doing so, they develop expertise with all matters of
asbestos law. Having a solid grasp of both federal and state asbestos laws,
they will be able to advise you properly about the best venue in which to file
your complaint, and they can provide you with a realistic estimate of how much
you might be eligible to receive for a settlement.
Resourceful
Putting together a mesothelioma lawsuit takes time and a lot
of hard work. Only the best lawyers will have the proper resources to pull
together the required information, documentation, testimony, affidavits,
complaints, and other materials necessary to build a solid case for you. Having
the right resources available ensures that your case will be handled
efficiently and will help you to receive compensation quickly.
Experienced
Only highly experienced mesothelioma lawyers win the largest
settlements for their clients. Look for an attorney who has a documented proven
track record with handling asbestos-related cases when seeking compensation for
your injury.
Recognized
Great mesothelioma attorneys are recognized by their peers
and national organizations like Martindale-Hubbell for their excellence in
going above and beyond to fight for their clients’ legal rights. Settle for
nothing less than a lawyer you can trust, a lawyer who can deliver results, and
a lawyer who is recognized by industry leaders and peers.
Mesothelioma Lawyer FAQs
Asbestos laws and litigation can be complex. Please note
that every individual case is different. To discuss specific questions or
concerns with a qualified legal professional, sign up for a free consultation.
When should I hire a mesothelioma lawyer?
If you have recently been diagnosed with mesothelioma, or if
a family member recently passed away because of mesothelioma, you should
contact an experienced attorney who specializes in asbestos litigation to help
you understand your legal rights and discuss the various types of compensation
you may be eligible to receive.
Laws that limit the amount of time for filing a mesothelioma
claim, known as statutes of limitations, are the reason it is important to contact
an experienced attorney right away. It can take some time to research the
details that are necessary in order to build your case. Therefore, initiating a
working relationship with an attorney as soon as possible is essential in
helping you receive the compensation you are entitled to as quickly as
possible.
How much does it cost to hire a mesothelioma lawyer?
If you hire a reputable law firm, there will be no up-front
costs to file a mesothelioma lawsuit. In the vast majority of cases,
mesothelioma lawsuits are handled on a contingency fee basis. This means that
you will not have to pay anything unless and until you receive compensation
owed to you.
Furthermore, experienced lawyers know how to keep costs
down, making it more efficient and ultimately better for clients because
clients receive a larger amount of compensation than if they went through a
less experienced law firm. If you do not have to go to trial, expenses will
typically range between 3 – 5% of the total compensation amount.

How long will it take to receive compensation if I hire a
lawyer?
Every individual case is different, so unfortunately there
is no way to tell exactly how long it might take to receive compensation from a
particular claim. It can take months just to gather the appropriate information
and documents necessary to simply file a claim. Once the claim is filed, the
timeframe to reach a settlement or, if you go to trial, receive a jury award
may range from months to years.
An experienced mesothelioma lawyer will be able to provide a
realistic idea of how long it may take for you to receive compensation once
they know the details of your case. However, it should be understood that the
actual timeframe for receiving compensation is an estimate and may be subject
to change over the course of the legal proceedings.
Aren’t all mesothelioma lawyers the same?
No! Some lawyers that take mesothelioma cases do not have
the experience or resources of a nationwide firm. Just because some lawyers can
fill out the paperwork required to file a claim in court, that doesn’t mean they
have the knowledge or proven track record to win compensation for their
clients.
Mesothelioma lawsuits can be complex matters, often taking
years to be resolved. Having a lawyer who knows the process and understands the
stakes involved will keep costs low and help you receive compensation as
quickly as possible to help cover treatment costs.
Can a lawyer help me get disability benefits?
Disability benefits are just one of the potential forms of
compensation you can receive as a mesothelioma patient. In addition to helping
you file paperwork related to disability benefits, an asbestos attorney can
help you explore other forms of compensation that may be available to you, in
