Exposure to asbestos can cause cancer. Asbestos exposure is the only cause of mesothelioma. If a doctor has recently diagnosed you or your loved one with mesothelioma, you have legal rights. You should be able to pursue financial compensation in a personal injury lawsuit from the companies that manufactured and distributed the asbestos products. Also, you might also be eligible to seek workers’ compensation benefits.

间皮瘤诉讼如何运作
Although many people have suffered from asbestos-related exposures, all courts treat mesothelioma lawsuits as individual claims rather than large class-action suits. Injured parties can file a lawsuit against asbestos manufacturers and distributors in state courts, or federal courts, as well as file worker’s compensation claims and asbestos bankruptcy trust claims.
在间皮瘤诉讼中，时间至关重要。由于许多石棉接触都是很久以前发生的，因此寻找证据可能是一项挑战。拥有一支经验丰富的律师团队至关重要，他们知道要寻找什么以及在哪里寻找。
重要的是，不同的州有不同的时效法规，对涉及其资格的间皮瘤诉讼施加了严格的时限。当患者收到诊断或死亡时，诉讼时效开始计算。索赔人需要在法定期限内提出索赔，否则法院可能会驳回其诉讼。
A seasoned attorney can help a claimant determine the appropriate jurisdiction in which to file a claim. If the asbestos product manufacturer is no longer in business due to bankruptcy, a lawyer can help the claimant pursue a bankruptcy trust claim. An attorney could also help an employee who sustained exposure to mesothelioma at their workplace file a workers’ compensation claim to recover their rightful benefits.
间皮瘤诉讼中可能获得的利益类型
经验丰富的律师可以帮助间皮瘤患者确定他们是否有资格提起诉讼，以补偿他们过去和未来的医疗费用。律师还可以帮助他们寻求赔偿，以补偿任何工资损失和未来预期终生收入损失。他们还可以为自己的人身痛苦、精神痛苦、生活享受的丧失、财团的损失以及许多其他无形损失寻求金钱赔偿。在许多司法管辖区，勤勉的律师可以帮助索赔人寻求惩罚性赔偿，以惩罚石棉制造商或分销商故意或鲁莽的不当行为。
不幸的是，由于间皮瘤总是致命的，富有同情心的律师可以帮助死者的家人在过失致人死亡诉讼中寻求损害赔偿。
