Every person diagnosed with mesothelioma or another asbestos-related disease has a unique story. Here at Simmons Hanly Conroy, we believe there is power in sharing those stories.
Our lawyers have helped many people over the years secure mesothelioma compensation. We are honored to have been able to make a meaningful difference in their lives and the lives of their loved ones.
When Albert and his wife retired in Roxana, they expected to fill their days with visits from their many grandchildren and great-grandchildren. However, everything changed after a head injury landed Albert in the hospital, where doctors discovered nodules on his lungs.
After a biopsy, Albert was diagnosed with pleural mesothelioma — a cancer caused by decades of asbestos exposure. This took place during his service on naval ships and while working as an electrician.
Our Illinois mesothelioma lawyers were able to help Albert secure compensation from the companies responsible for his illness and hold them accountable for their negligence.
“If you’ve been diagnosed with mesothelioma, go see Simmons Hanly Conroy,” said Albert’s daughter Linda. “They will be there, by your side, the whole way through.”
George was just 62 years old when he was diagnosed with pleural mesothelioma. The loving husband and father of 2 had been exposed to asbestos while working as a laborer in Illinois.
At the time of his diagnosis, George’s family knew very little about this rare cancer. However, when they learned that many companies hid the dangers of asbestos from the public to protect their profits, the family reached out to our Illinois mesothelioma lawyers for help.
“The Simmons firm was a godsend,” said George’s daughter Alison. “They explained all of the health and legal implications of what my dad was going through.”
We were able to help George file a mesothelioma lawsuit and recovered compensation that allowed him to afford treatments and focus on spending time with his loved ones.
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 the Collinsville area by giving back to a variety of different cancer research and mesothelioma support organizations.

Together, Miles for Meso races across the country have raised over $977,500 for mesothelioma research and advocacy. Simmons Hanly Conroy continues to be a national sponsor of the event.
