Filing a Pennsylvania Mesothelioma Lawsuit

Those interested in filing a Pennsylvania mesothelioma lawsuit or in hiring a Pennsylvania mesothelioma lawyer should be aware that their legal rights may be restricted by Pennsylvania’s statute of limitations. A statute of limitations is the period of time you have until it is “too late” to file an asbestos or mesothelioma lawsuit. So you are advised to contact a Pennsylvania mesothelioma lawyer as soon as possible after a mesothelioma diagnosis in order to file any lawsuits within the state's statute of limitations.
An experienced Pennsylvania mesothelioma attorney can help you present your case and maximize your chances of winning a settlement in a court of law. To make sure that you are protected under the law and to build a strong case, a mesothelioma attorney will first need to obtain the following information:

• Medical records confirming a diagnosis of mesothelioma or other asbestos disease
• Death certificate with cause of death listed (if applicable)
• Work history or military service to determine how and when the asbestos exposure occurred

It is important to know that even if your loved one has already lost their battle with mesothelioma, you may still have the right to file a claim.

A Key Pennsylvania Asbestos Exposure Lawsuit

One key asbestos case in Pennsylvania, Georgine v. Amchem Products, Inc., took place in 1994. The case involved a consortium of companies known as the Center for Claims Resolution (CCR). In 1991, all existing federal asbestos personal-injury litigation was transferred by the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation to the Eastern District of Pennsylvania. Soon after, CCR attempted to negotiate a settlement of all future asbestos claims against the CCR defendants. The CCR had attempted to limit the liability of its members in cases related to asbestos, and this action allegedly led to the eventual class settlement lawsuit including future claims.
