Asbestos Illness Claims

Asbestos illness

I’ve been diagnosed with an asbestos-related illness. What now?

It can take as long as 40 years for a person to begin to suffer the side effects of being exposed to asbestos. If you’ve been diagnosed with mesothelioma, asbestosis, or Pleural disease – it is important you act promptly. Sadly, asbestos-related illnesses, particularly cancers, can be aggressive, and distressing. It is best for all concerned - you, your family, and your loved ones - if you seek professional advice as soon as possible.

If your illness prevents you from visiting our offices to discuss your illness, we can make arrangements to come to you or meet via video conferencing. Likewise, the legal professionals that deal with asbestos claims are also sensitive to the possibility sufferers can deteriorate quickly. Where necessary, claims can be processed quickly if warranted. Typically, claims made by those suffering from a terminal or malignant asbestos-related disease can be resolved in under six months.

Those suffering from a non-malignant illness, such as asbestosis and pleural disease, usually have their claim concluded within 18 months.
