Mesothelioma Lawyers for Individuals Diagnosed with Mesothelioma

The mesothelioma lawyers at the Simmons firm have been working with people diagnosed with mesothelioma and asbestos-related diseases and their families for nearly a decade. In that time our mesothelioma lawyers have represented thousands of individuals from all areas of the United States. We have seen firsthand the pain a mesothelioma diagnosis can cause and are deeply committed to helping victims and families affected by mesothelioma. 

If you or a loved one have been diagnosed with mesothelioma, contact the asbestos attorneys at the Simmons firm today for a free consultation with any mesothelioma questions - medical or legal - you may have.

Since 1999, the Simmons firm has recovered over $3 billion in verdicts and settlements for thousands of clients.* Further, we have made giving back to our clients and finding a cure for mesothelioma a priority. We are one of the nation's leading supporters of the Mesothelioma Applied Research Foundation and have pledged $10 million to support cancer research at the SimmonsCooper Cancer Institute at Southern Illinois University.

Our law firm was built on one principle: to give clients and their families the care and respect they deserve. Our mesothelioma lawyers know that while each case is unique, they all have one thing in common: every mesothelioma client is a person whose life has been destroyed by someone else’s negligence.

Our law firm and team of experienced mesothelioma attorneys are extremely knowledgeable about asbestos and, in particular, mesothelioma.  As an experienced nationwide mesothelioma law firm, we have learned that one of the most powerful weapons we can offer clients and prospective clients is information. The links on this page will help you learn about filing a mesothelioma lawsuit and what you can do if you are sick due to asbestos exposure.
