Filing a mesothelioma lawsuit can help you cover medical expenses and secure your family’s well-being for years to come. Our Long Beach mesothelioma attorneys can guide you through the legal system, making the process as easy as possible for you and your family.

You may be eligible for compensation in multiple ways, and many of these options do not require you to go to court:

  • Asbestos Trust Funds: An estimated $30 billion has been set aside by asbestos companies to pay people who have developed asbestos-related diseases.
  • Mesothelioma Lawsuit: Most mesothelioma lawsuits are settled out of court, but our mesothelioma lawyers in Long Beach are prepared to present your case in trial if needed. Families can receive significant amounts of compensation from settlements.
  • Veterans Affairs (VA) Benefits: Veterans with mesothelioma may be able to access medical and financial benefits through the VA. We have VA-accredited mesothelioma attorneys on staff who can help veterans prepare their VA claims to access the benefits they are owed.

Alicia, wife of Jose Sanchez

Jose’s Story

Jose grew up in Mexico City before relocating to California, where he found work as a roofer with a local construction crew. For years, he showed up to job sites without knowing he was being exposed to asbestos in the materials he worked with.

Years later, Jose began to struggle with unexplained weight loss and fatigue. Doctors diagnosed him with pleural mesothelioma and explained that his illness was caused by occupational asbestos exposure.

Jose and his family turned to our attorneys for help. From the start, their Spanish-speaking legal counsel guided them through every step of the process in their native language, ensuring nothing was lost in translation.

“People don’t want to file a lawsuit because they are afraid of not being heard, of not being understood,” said Jose’s wife Alicia. “However, we were really lucky. Simmons Hanly Conroy truly helped us navigate this legal case very easily.”
