Colorado Springs Mesothelioma Lawyer
Recover the Compensation You Deserve
Mesothelioma is a form of cancer that occurs due to asbestos exposure. A serious health risk that lies hidden in many different industries such as the construction industry, asbestos can make its way into the lungs and abdomen and create permanent health conditions. If you have contracted mesothelioma because of asbestos that existed in your workplace, you may be able to file a claim against your employer.
Our firm knows that far too often, employers evade liability and are never held responsible for the suffering inflicted on their employees. We believe that filing a claim is the first step toward justice. With more than 100 years of combined legal experience, our Colorado Springs personal injury lawyers are a team you can trust.
What factors will affect my compensation amount?
When building a claim, it is important to compile as much evidence as possible. Medical reports, hospital bills, and employment records can all further your case and show proof of your condition. Certain industries, like construction, mining, and automotive repair have a higher risk of asbestos, potentially resulting in a more easily obtained compensation.
Your compensation amount can be impacted by the following factors:
- The size of the asbestos victims’ compensation fund in your state
- The severity of your illness and its overall effect on your life
- The time it takes to resolve your case
There is no predetermined period of time that it will take for a mesothelioma case to be resolved. Based on the strength of your claim and the payment source, your case could finish in less than a year. Other cases, however, drag on for two years or longer. Choosing an experienced lawyer can also help move the process along.
