How Quickly Must I File My Claim?

Pennsyvlania and New Jersey State law limit the time to file a claim or you lose your right to compensation. The statute of limitations to file a mesothelioma claim in Pennsylvania is two years after diagnosis.

Is This a Class Action?

Each mesothelioma case is unique and filed as an individual case. Your case will not be part of any class action lawsuit.

Will My Other Benefits Be Affected?

Disability, Workers Compensation, and other benefits will not be affected by any recovery obtained from filing your mesothelioma lawsuit.

Has Money Been Set Aside?

Over $30 Billion has been set aside in asbestos trusts to pay mesothelioma victims. At The Halpern Law Firm we will help to figure out which asbestos trust fund money you may be eligible for.

Can our Family Recover Compensation if our Loved One has Already passed?

You and your family still have the right to recover compensation even if your loved one who suffered from mesothelioma lung cancer has already passed away.

Do I have to File a Lawsuit?

You do not have to file a lawsuit to recover compensation from the asbestos trusts. At The Halpern Law Firm we will do the work to file a claim with an asbestos trust.

Will I or a Family Member Have to pay Tax on the Settlement

Since the compensation is not income, all mesothelioma compensation is tax-free.
