Hiring An Attorney To Get Compensation From An Asbestos Company That Has Gone Out Of Business

When it became clear that industry had hidden the dangers of asbestos exposure from workers and customers for decades, many companies involved in its production and use went out of business. If the asbestos company went out of business, there are still opportunities to be compensated for your injuries.

As a condition of their bankruptcy, judges often required that companies create large trusts to pay future victims of their misconduct.

So the fact that an asbestos company is no longer operating doesn’t mean that you can’t collect money you’re entitled to under the law.

Filing A Lawsuit For Asbestos And Mesothelioma Compensation

Asbestos and mesothelioma cases run the gamut from fairly straightforward claims made to a trust or the VA, to complex litigation issues.

If you’ve been diagnosed with mesothelioma or another asbestos-related disease, working with attorneys with a long track record in this area of law enhances your odds of getting the most generous award or settlement possible.

At The Gertler Law Firm, we’re proud to have been the first firm in Louisiana to win a judgment linking mesothelioma to asbestos exposure.

Remember- if the asbestos company went out of business, you are still entitled to lawsuit compensation for your asbsetos-related injuries.
