Michigan Mesothelioma Lawyers

When you or a family member is diagnosed with mesothelioma, everything changes. We understand that this is an incredibly difficult time for you and your family. While no amount of compensation can buy you a medical miracle, filing a mesothelioma lawsuit can help lift financial burdens so you can focus on what’s important.

Simmons Hanly Conroy has recovered $7 billion in verdicts and settlements on behalf of thousands of clients throughout the United States. For Michigan families impacted by mesothelioma, our asbestos attorneys have recovered over $164 million to help them pay for medical bills and hold the people who harmed them accountable.

Please note that recovery results vary per client. The recovery amounts in each case reflect the specific facts of that case. Further, recovery amounts in past cases are not a guarantee of future results.

Asbestos Exposure And Mesothelioma In Michigan

Michigan is home to the nation’s auto industry – an industry that has used asbestos for decades. Auto products that have contained or currently contain asbestos include:

  • Brake pads and linings
  • Clutch components
  • Valves
  • Gaskets

While the EPA has recently raised awareness of automotive industry asbestos exposure, very little was done to protect auto workers in the late twentieth century from the dangers of asbestos. This lack of oversight in the automotive industry back then has led to some of the largest verdicts in asbestos case history being issued against major Michigan auto manufacturers.

Our previous experience representing mesothelioma victims in a variety of Michigan industries, automotive included, is important because it means we are familiar with Michigan job sites where asbestos exposure occurred.

Our experienced attorneys have helped our past clients identify their asbestos exposures and they are ready to help you and your family as well.
