It is important that you identify yourself as either a U.S. military veteran or as the child or spouse of a veteran who died from a service-connected disability. The type of compensation and benefits you are entitled to, as well as the claims process for receiving those benefits, differs for veterans and survivors.
For veterans who have been diagnosed with mesothelioma or lung cancer, our knowledgeable attorneys can help you pursue maximum compensation by:
- Identifying the asbestos manufacturers that were responsible for your exposure and resulting illness
- Filing claims through asbestos trust funds
- Negotiating settlements with or pursuing lawsuits against the companies that put you in harm’s way
- Filing for VA benefits through our VA-accredited claims representative
For the spouse or child of a veteran who died from mesothelioma or lung cancer, our compassionate lawyers can help you cope with the financial burden you are facing by:
- Pursuing a wrongful death claim to recover compensation for funeral and burial expenses, your loved one’s health care expenses, lost wages and benefits, the value of lost support and services, any inheritance lost by surviving children, and the nurturing and care the children no longer receive
- Filing a claim for compensation for the pain and suffering your loved one experienced before death due to the disease
- Filing for Dependency and Indemnity Compensation (DIC) survivor benefits with the help of our VA-accredited claims representative
