What actually happens when you file a mesothelioma claim

Forget what you've seen on TV. Here's the reality:

90-95% of cases settle out of court
Your attorney comes to you (usually one day of your time)
No courtroom drama, no lengthy trial
Average settlements range from $1 million to $2.4 million

The hard part? Proving which companies' asbestos products caused your illness. That's where specialized attorneys with product databases make the difference.

The catch: You typically have 2-3 years from the date of diagnosis to file. After that, you lose your right to compensation.

Over $30 billion sits in asbestos trust funds right now. Many companies that exposed workers have gone bankrupt, but the money is still there.
