Choosing the right attorney for your mesothelioma case is one of the most important decisions you'll make. Here's what to look for:
Choose an attorney who focuses specifically on mesothelioma and asbestos litigation — not a general personal injury attorney. Mesothelioma cases involve specialized knowledge of asbestos exposure history, medical evidence, and trust fund filing procedures.
Ask about their case results. Experienced mesothelioma attorneys have recovered millions for individual clients. Look for a firm that can show documented settlements and verdicts in cases similar to yours.
Over 60 asbestos trust funds hold more than $30 billion for victims. Your attorney should know how to identify and file claims with every trust fund that applies to your exposure history — this can significantly increase total compensation.
Reputable mesothelioma attorneys work on contingency — meaning no fees unless they win your case. Never pay upfront fees or retainers for mesothelioma legal representation.
The best mesothelioma firms can file your case in the jurisdiction that offers the strongest legal protections, which may not be Nebraska. Ask whether they can represent you nationwide.
Your attorney should come to you — at home, at the hospital, or via video call. Mesothelioma patients shouldn't have to travel. Ask about their consultation process and how they accommodate patients.
Nebraska has a four-year statute of limitations from the date of diagnosis or discovery for personal injury claims. Wrongful death claims must be filed within two years of the date of death.
