Mesothelioma Settlements


   Several mesothelioma settlements and entendement have reached into the millions, but it's not easy to estimate how much a person will receive prior to declaring a claim. Compensation differs on claimant's diagnosis, health background, companies sued, where the claim is submitted, proof of negligence and other factors.
History shows that an overwhelming bulk of cases end in a settlement before reaching the courtroom. But some cases do go to trial, in which a judge or jury can produce a verdict that awards significant compensatory and punitive damages.

Settlement and verdict amounts often are tied to the price tag on medical expenses, physical and mental distress, lost wages and bills that accumulate as patients move forward with an asbestos-related illness. Of course, compensation is also linked to the durability of the case, which brings into play the plaintiff's specific diagnosis and health condition, as well as the degree of perceived liability for one or more defendants.



Actual settlement figures are usually considered private, and people often are bound by confidentiality agreements. However, negotiation amounts tend to reach the public eye from time to time
