Time Limits

Danger Asbestos Warning SignIt is very important that you contact a Louisiana mesothelioma lawyer right away. There is a time limit for taking legal action called the statute of limitations. In mesothelioma cases the statute of limitations normally starts tolling the day that you are diagnosed. There can be other factors that affect how much time you have to file your lawsuit. If you miss you deadline you lose your legal right to compensation.

Your Consultation

Your initial consultation with one of our Louisiana mesothelioma lawyers is free. We work on a contingency basis, so you do not need to worry about being able to afford an attorney. Instead of charging you an hourly rate for our services, our fee is a percentage of the recovery, and we only charge this fee if we recover funds on your behalf.

Compensation for Mesothelioma Victims

If you have been diagnosed with mesothelioma you may be entitled to compensation. Because mesothelioma kills so quickly, some mesothelioma victims do not live to see their cases resolved. Loved ones of deceased mesothelioma victims may also be entitled to compensation. You may be able to recover damages including:

  • Medical expenses
  • Future medical expenses
  • End of life care
  • Lost income
  • Future lost income
  • Lost earning capacity
  • Disability
  • Pain and suffering
  • Emotional anguish
  • Loss of enjoyment of life
  • Loss of consortium
  • Wrongful death

If you or a loved one has mesothelioma or any asbestos-related illness, please call 1-877 LOSS RECOVER (567-7732) or submit an online questionnaire. The initial consultation is free of charge, and if our Louisiana mesothelioma lawyers agree to handle your mesothelioma claim, they will work on a contingent fee basis, which means they only get paid for their services if there is a monetary recovery of funds. In many cases, a lawsuit must be filed before the expiration of the statute of limitations. Please call our Louisiana mesothelioma lawyers right away to ensure that you do not waive your right to possible compensation.
