What is a Mesothelioma Lawsuit?

A mesothelioma lawsuit is a legal claim filed by victims and family members in Louisiana against the companies that produced the asbestos-containing products that harmed them.

Many manufacturers continued using asbestos in products long after the dangers were known, and in some cases hid the dangers from employees, contractors, and the public. As a result, individuals who were exposed to asbestos were diagnosed with mesothelioma, lung cancer, or asbestosis.

Mesothelioma lawsuits help provide the legal remedies individuals and families need to pursue financial compensation from the manufacturers for their damages.

Most mesothelioma lawsuits result in settlements, usually without our clients going to court. Contact our experienced asbestos and mesothelioma attorneys in Louisiana to learn more about how we can help you pursue the best outcome for your unique circumstances.

Who Can File a Mesothelioma Lawsuit in Louisiana?

Individuals and family members may be eligible to file a mesothelioma lawsuit in Louisiana if they were:

  • Exposed to asbestos-containing products.
  • Diagnosed with an asbestos-related disease like mesothelioma or other illnesses.
  • Lost a loved one because of their exposure.

Even if you are unsure where you were exposed to asbestos, we can provide the legal resources and data necessary to pinpoint how and when you were exposed, so we can begin building your case for success.
