Asbestos Cancer Trust Fund Claims

If you or a loved one has been diagnosed with mesothelioma or another asbestos-related illness, such as lung cancer, you may be eligible to file a claim with one of the numerous asbestos bankruptcy trust funds established by companies responsible for past asbestos exposure. Eligibility typically depends on factors such as:

‍

• Diagnosis: Having a confirmed diagnosis of mesothelioma or another qualifying asbestos-related illness.
• Exposure: Proving exposure to asbestos during your work or personal life. This can include working in various industries like shipbuilding, construction, refining, power plants, steel production, railroad building, or automotive repair, or living in a household with someone who worked with asbestos.
• Filing deadline: Each trust fund has specific deadlines for filing claims. Early consultation with experienced mesothelioma lawyers is essential to make sure you don't miss these critical timelines.

In the face of overwhelming asbestos-related lawsuits, several companies responsible for asbestos use filed for bankruptcy. To compensate victims and ensure orderly distribution of limited resources, asbestos bankruptcy trust funds were established. These funds provide financial compensation to eligible individuals and families impacted by asbestos-related illnesses.

Compensation from asbestos trust funds can significantly ease the financial burden of mesothelioma, covering various expenses such as:

‍

• Medical bills: Treatment for mesothelioma is often lengthy and expensive. Trust funds can help cover costs for surgery, radiation, chemotherapy, and other necessary medical care.
• Lost wages: Mesothelioma can severely impact your ability to work, leading to lost income. Trust funds can provide compensation for past and future lost wages.
• Pain and suffering: The physical and emotional toll of mesothelioma is immense. Trust funds can offer compensation for the pain and suffering you've endured.
• Loss of consortium: If you've lost a loved one to mesothelioma, trust funds may provide compensation for the loss of their companionship and support.

‍

The amount of compensation awarded through trust funds can vary depending on several factors, including:

‍

• Type of illness: Mesothelioma receives higher compensation compared to other asbestos-related illnesses.
• Extent of exposure: We try to find one product on each trust’s product list you may have been exposed to.
• Date of exposure: Generally, those exposed earlier as for some of the trusts, the products may have been phased out at later dates. 
• Filing strategy: Experienced mesothelioma lawyers can navigate the complex trust fund system and maximize your compensation potential.
