Mesothelioma Settlements & Compensation

Filing a mesothelioma claim can help secure your family’s financial future, cover mounting medical bills, and hold negligent asbestos companies accountable.

Asbestos Trust Funds When many asbestos manufacturers filed for bankruptcy to avoid being sued, they were forced by the courts to establish asbestos bankruptcy trust funds. Today, there is over $30 billion set aside in these trusts to compensate victims. Our attorneys are highly experienced in identifying which trusts you qualify for and expediting the claims process without you ever having to step foot in a courtroom.

What Families Can Expect Compensation typically covers medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and loss of consortium for family members. While every case is unique, mesothelioma settlements frequently range from $1 million to $1.4 million, with trial verdicts occasionally reaching much higher.

Our Track Record Gori Law has recovered more than $4 billion total for our clients. Our notable results include a $14 million mesothelioma recovery for an insulator, demonstrating our commitment to fighting for maximum compensation.

The Link Between Asbestos Exposure and Mesothelioma

Mesothelioma is an aggressive and deadly cancer caused almost exclusively by exposure to asbestos. When microscopic asbestos fibers are inhaled or ingested, they become permanently lodged in the mesothelium (the protective lining of the lungs, abdomen, or heart). Over decades, these fibers cause irritation and cellular damage that eventually mutates into mesothelioma.

Because asbestos was heavily used for its heat resistance and durability until the late 20th century, thousands of hard-working Americans were exposed on the job.

Occupations at the Highest Risk of Exposure:

‘U.S. Navy Veterans: Asbestos was used extensively in naval ships, exposing sailors in boiler rooms, engine rooms, and sleeping quarters.
Shipyard Workers: Those who built, repaired, and dismantled ships handled asbestos-containing insulation, gaskets, and pipes daily.
Factory & Plant Workers: Chemical plants, power plants, and auto factories relied on asbestos-containing machinery and protective gear.
Construction Workers: Carpenters, roofers, insulators, and drywall tapers routinely worked with asbestos-laden cement, tiles, and insulation.

Anyone diagnosed with mesothelioma, lung cancer, or another asbestos-related disease who was exposed to asbestos may qualify. Additionally, surviving family members can file a wrongful death claim on behalf of a loved one who passed away from the disease.

The law places a strict time limit—known as the statute of limitations—on how long you have to file a claim after a diagnosis or a loved one’s passing. These limits vary by state (often between 1 and 3 years). It is critical to contact us immediately to protect your legal rights.

I was very pleased with the way the attorneys at The Gori Law Firm handled our court case. They took the time to go over everything with me and made me very comfortable throughout the entire process. My husband, Al, especially enjoyed reading the “100 Questions & Answers” book the law firm provided to help him better understand his diagnosis. They were also really great about accommodating our transportation needs and, in the end, we got to know everyone really well to the point we felt like family. I can’t say enough about how great our experience was and how diligent they were in pushing our case forward.

Hello All, We wanted you to know how much we appreciated all your office has done over the years in regard to my dad’s mesothelioma case. It was hard to lose him to a disease caused by some obscure companies, but had we been weighed down even more by his medical bills and care expensed to us, then it would have been even worse. We would like to thank you for all your care and trouble you went through for us. Sincerely,
