Below is a breakdown of the lawsuit process and common questions about filing a claim.
Who Can File a Mesothelioma Lawsuit?
Mesothelioma sufferers and their family may be able to file a mesothelioma lawsuit to seek damages such as lost wages, medical expenses and pain and suffering.
How Does the Mesothelioma Lawsuit Process Work?
To maximize a person’s success in court, the mesothelioma team at Anapol Weiss will investigate several vital pieces of information including:
- The party responsible for your asbestos exposure
- When the asbestos exposure occurred
- The location of the exposure, i.e. construction sites, mines, shipyards, etc.

Why Should I File a Mesothelioma Lawsuit?
