Asbestos Lawyers at the Halpern Law Firm
These are not the only asbestos-related diseases in which people have been diagnosed with who we have represented. Asbestos can cause a variety of different diseases and cancers. Asbestos lawyers are the best choice for your case because they specialize in this type of work. At the Halpern Law Firm we only do asbestos cases. Other personal injury law firms work on a wide variety of cases and are not specialists in this field. We can dedicate the time and research needed to work on your case.
We have a team of asbestos lawyers who do the research necessary to fight for you and your family and to help you receive compensation. Those who specialize in asbestos litigation know how to help track down sources of exposure. Due to the long latency period from exposure to development of an asbestos-related disease, sometimes it can be difficult to remember when and where you were exposed. An experienced asbestos attorney will have familiarity with different sources of exposure and sites of exposure.
Pursuing Compensation
There are different ways to pursue compensation. If there are viable defendants in the case, it is an option to sue these defendants. However, it is not always necessary to file a lawsuit. In instances, the companies/manufacturers that exposed the victim to asbestos are out of business and have set money aside in an asbestos trust fund. There is money available from more than 60 companies who have set money aside. The experienced asbestos lawyers at the Halpern Law Firm can help file claims with these trust funds to maximize compensation.
All in all, those who have been diagnosed with an asbestos-related disease should deeply consider hiring a law firm who specializes in representing those who have been diagnosed. At the Halpern Law Firm we truly dedicate our time to fighting for these victims and fighting for justice. We will continue to represent those who have been affected by an illness caused by no fault of their own and to hold negligent companies accountable for their actions or lack of action.
