DO I HAVE TO GO TO COURT?

Typically, we can do all of the work on your case in or near your home. If your deposition is taken, this can also be done in your home or in a conference room near your home. Only if the case is not settled, might you have to be present in court for any period of time. Even if your case goes before a jury, you generally only need be present for a small portion of the trial.

In the overwhelming percentage of these cases, however, settlements will be reached prior to the trial date. Because of this, it is always best to hire experienced counsel with a track record of success. Experienced counsel who have obtained substantial awards in the past may be more likely to obtain significant settlement offers from the defendants prior to going to trial.

Because mesothelioma cases have become more lucrative, the number of law firms that are seeking mesothelioma cases are on the increase. You may encounter lawyers that you know who now claim to be interested in taking your case. It is important to have experienced legal representation from lawyers who have experience negotiating settlements in mesothelioma cases.

HOW MUCH IS MY CASE WORTH?

It is impossible to say at an early date how much any particular case is worth. We do not handle class action cases or treat mesothelioma cases as part of a class action. We will need to meet with you to discuss all of the details of your claim, but in the past, settlements have often resulted in multi-million dollar payments to the clients and their families.
