• Personal Injury:
After receiving a diagnosis of an asbestos-related disease, you can file personal injury claims for damages. It is imperative that you contact an asbestos lawyer immediately after your diagnosis to get the process started so that you don’t lose your legal rights due to time restraints known as statutes of limitations.

• Wrongful Death:
If the victim of an asbestos-related diseases passes away before being able to file a complaint, it may be possible for family members to file a claim on his/her behalf for wrongful death. Contact Sakalarios, Blackwell & Schock, PLLC as soon as possible to discuss your legal rights and begin the process of filing a claim. Asbestos claims can be made after death, but like personal injury cases, they also have a statute of limitations.

Note: Each state has different laws regarding the statute of limitations (the time frame you have to file a claim after being diagnosed with an asbestos-related disease). Our knowledgeable attorneys can help clarify any questions you may have regarding the statute of limitations. Contact us today for more information
