Filing Mesothelioma Claims in Illinois

Each senior attorney operates within a small team of several experienced attorneys, legal staff members, and registered nurses, which ensures you’ll receive personalized attention while your case progresses.

Your legal team can pursue mesothelioma compensation in several ways:

Asbestos Trust Fund Claims: Over $30 billion is estimated to still be available in asbestos trust funds for mesothelioma victims and their families — and you don’t have to step foot in court to get it.
Mesothelioma Lawsuits: Filing a lawsuit can secure significant compensation from the companies responsible for your asbestos exposure and illness.
Veterans Benefits: Veterans make up 33% of all mesothelioma cases because asbestos was used across all branches of the military. VA benefits can offer victims health care and monthly compensation.

Together, your team can handle every step of the legal process on your behalf, from collecting evidence for your case to filing your claim in time.

Deadline to File a Mesothelioma Lawsuit in Illinois

State laws called statutes of limitations restrict how long mesothelioma patients and their family members have to file a lawsuit. In Illinois, the mesothelioma statute of limitations is 2 years after your diagnosis or the death of a loved one.

It’s important to contact mesothelioma attorneys in Illinois as soon as possible, so you don’t miss your chance to take action.

Asbestos Exposure and Mesothelioma in Illinois

During the 20th century, more than 1 million U.S. workers were exposed to asbestos, a dangerous mineral that can cause the cancer mesothelioma, and many face serious health risks to this day.

Quick Facts About Asbestos

Asbestos is a natural mineral that is durable and resistant to heat
Over 3,000 household and industrial products contained asbestos, including roofing shingles, talcum powder, automobile brakes, insulation, boilers, and more
Multiple industries, like manufacturing, steel working, and shipbuilding, used asbestos
Inhaling or ingesting asbestos fibers can cause mesothelioma to develop 10-50 years after initial exposure
Secondary exposure occurs when asbestos is brought home on a worker’s clothes, skin, or hair, exposing others indirectly

Some job sites, homes, and older buildings in Illinois may still contain asbestos, putting workers and residents at risk of exposure even today.

What If I Don’t Know How I Was Exposed?

Our knowledgeable Illinois mesothelioma attorneys have helped many past clients identify where they were exposed to asbestos and which companies may be responsible.

Over the past two decades, we’ve gathered evidence on thousands of Illinois job sites where asbestos was used. It’s possible we’ve already represented someone who worked at the same spot as you.

Let us put our experience to work for your family. Call (800) 326-8900 now to get started for free.

Johns Manville Corporation is one of the largest asbestos processors in the world. From the 1920s until 1988, the company operated a manufacturing plant in Waukegan, IL. The Environmental Protection Agency has since designated this area as a Superfund site, due in part to the presence of asbestos.

George’s Story

George Dreith grew up in Alton, IL, where his family members were exposed to asbestos at their workplaces. Unbeknownst to them, microscopic asbestos fibers clung to the clothing they wore home, putting George at risk during his early years.

George was also directly exposed to asbestos during his career, and he was eventually diagnosed with pleural mesothelioma. Following his diagnosis, George dedicated his time to caring for his loved ones and raising awareness about the hazards of asbestos exposure.

While undergoing treatment, George participated in the Alton Miles for Meso fundraiser hosted by Simmons Hanly Conroy. He also worked with our mesothelioma lawyers in Illinois to hold the asbestos companies responsible for his illness accountable.

Jessica’s Story

When 32-year-old Jessica began experiencing intense stomach pain, she went to the hospital. However, doctors waved it off as a panic attack. Determined to figure out the true cause of her symptoms, she sought another opinion and was eventually diagnosed with peritoneal mesothelioma.

With limited knowledge about her condition, Jessica searched for a mesothelioma specialist who could provide her with more information. She found hope in Dr. Hedy Lee Kindler at the University of Chicago, who proposed that she undergo hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC).

Following the 12-hour HIPEC surgery, Jessica beat the odds and became a mesothelioma survivor. A year later, she achieved her dream of becoming a mother and gave birth to her first son.

Forrest’s Story

Forrest Wulf, a Wood River native, worked in construction for three decades. In his mid-50s, he began to experience breathing troubles and ultimately received a devastating diagnosis: pleural mesothelioma, the result of years of occupational asbestos exposure.

Forrest’s illness forced him to retire early. Our Illinois mesothelioma attorneys were able to secure a settlement on his behalf, so he could afford medical treatments and spend his remaining time with family.

“I wouldn’t have a thing if it wasn’t for my ability to hold the companies who harmed me accountable in court,” Forrest said.

Driven by his love for family, Forest fought mesothelioma for over seven years. He sadly lost his battle at the age of 63.

Albert’s Story

Albert Manring was born in Fairfield, Illinois. He served in the U.S. Navy as a flight crewman on R4D aircraft before joining the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) Local 649.

Throughout his career, Albert was exposed to asbestos at different job sites. However, it wasn’t until he retired that he was diagnosed with pleural mesothelioma.

The Manrings decided to contact our Illinois lawyers for mesothelioma and file a lawsuit against the companies responsible for Albert’s illness. We were able to handle every step of the legal process on their behalf.

“Hiring Simmons Hanly Conroy was the best decision my dad ever made,” said Albert’s daughter Linda.

Giving Back to the Local Illinois Community

At Simmons Hanly Conroy, we don’t just talk the talk — we walk the walk. We passionately stand up for clients in the courtroom and in local Illinois communities by giving back to a variety of different cancer research and mesothelioma support organizations.

Simmons Cancer Institute at Southern Illinois University

Simmons Hanly Conroy pledged $10.2 million to fund the cancer institute at Southern Illinois University (SIU), which focuses on enhancing current cancer treatment options and searching for a cure.

“The firm has been at the forefront in fighting for justice for cancer victims. We will continue to show that commitment with our hearts and with our pocketbook,” said Firm Founder and Chairman John Simmons.

John and his wife Jayne also donated $10 million to the SIU School of Law, expanding opportunities for generations of students and faculty to come. In honor of their donation, the university named the law school the SIU Simmons Law School.

Miles for Meso

Miles for Meso is a 5K race to raise awareness about the dangers of asbestos exposure and bring together a community of those affected by asbestos-related diseases like mesothelioma. Simmons Hanly Conroy hosted the first Miles for Meso race in 2009 at the firm’s headquarters in Alton, IL.

“Miles for Meso means hope. It means hope that, at some point, all the fundraising and all the awareness is going to result in effective treatments of the disease and hopefully someday a cure,” said Joyce Larson, wife of a mesothelioma warrior and firm client.

Today, Simmons Hanly Conroy is the national presenting sponsor of Miles for Meso, which has taken place in 11 different states, including Illinois. Miles for Meso has raised over $952,000 and counting for mesothelioma research and awareness.

Grafton Memorial

As a veteran-founded law firm, we’re committed to honoring members of the U.S. Armed Forces and the sacrifices they’ve made for our country. That’s why we’re proud to support the creation of the National Memorial of Military Ascent (NMMA) in Grafton, IL.

The memorial will feature a museum on the history of the U.S. military and will likely bring in visitors from across the country. John Simmons, who served in the U.S. Army, is co-chair of the project.

Alongside Grafton Mayor Retired Col. Michael Morrow, John Simmons will help lead the campaign to raise the $6 million required for the memorial’s completion by 2025.

Illinois Community Service

Beyond donating funds, Simmons Hanly Conroy is committed to being a good corporate citizen, sponsoring local events and programs in our communities.

Since 2004, the firm has donated more than 10,000 volunteer hours to nonprofits and other organizations focused on helping those in need.

“Our attorneys and staff have donated countless pro bono hours dedicated to ensuring people from every walk of life have access to equitable justice,” said Attorney Amy Garrett.

Illinois Lawyer for Mesothelioma FAQs

What is an Illinois mesothelioma lawsuit?

An Illinois mesothelioma lawsuit is a type of product liability claim against the companies that made or used the asbestos products a mesothelioma patient was exposed to.

Since many companies knowingly hid the dangers of asbestos from their employees and consumers, victims may be able to hold asbestos companies accountable and pursue compensation for injuries they suffered as a result of the companies’ products.

What is the mesothelioma statute of limitations in Illinois?

Unfortunately, asbestos exposure victims only have a short window of time after their mesothelioma diagnosis to file a claim due to statutes of limitations, which are state-specific deadlines on when you can file a lawsuit.

When was asbestos banned in Illinois?

In July 1972, Illinois banned the use of asbestos for fireproofing or insulating buildings and building materials. Legislators also passed the Asbestos Abatement Act in 1984, which established regulations for the removal of asbestos from schools.

However, asbestos isn’t completely banned in Illinois. Because of this, residents may still be at risk of exposure.
