Does My Family Get The Money If I Die Before My Mesothelioma Case In New Orleans Is Over?

Yes, in the event that you die before a mesothelioma lawsuit or claim is finished, your estate will receive any award and it will be distributed to your beneficiaries.

Tragically, this scenario does play out for people facing a mesothelioma diagnosis, partly because the cancer can be very aggressive, and partly because many people are diagnosed at a late stage of the disease.

Because mesothelioma is relatively rare, and its early symptoms frequently mimic more common conditions, doctors and patients alike often miss the initial signs that there is something seriously wrong.

Your mesothelioma lawyer in New Orleans will take your prognosis into account in developing the strategy for your case.

Courts understand that a speedy resolution is an important factor in handling mesothelioma lawsuits and claims.

Your case will proceed as quickly as possible, but in the event that you do not live long enough to see its conclusion, you can trust that your family will receive any damage award.

At The Gertler Law Firm, we’ve helped families get the compensation they deserve when a loved one has developed mesothelioma.
