Do I Need a Mesothelioma Lawyer To File for Compensation?
The law does not require you to hire a lawyer to file a lawsuit. However, having an experienced mesothelioma lawyer on your side is in your best interests.
They have in-depth knowledge of potential asbestos sources, contaminated job sites, and the laws governing asbestos claims. They also deeply understand the medicine involved and the challenges victims and their families face.
An asbestos attorney can use this understanding to greatly increase your chances of receiving fair compensation. We have the resources to determine your exposure sources, collect evidence of that exposure, and build a compelling case on your behalf targeting the companies responsible for exposing you to asbestos.
What Can a Mesothelioma Lawyer Do for Me?
The mesothelioma lawyers at Bergman Oslund Udo Little can help with all aspects of your legal case from start to finish. We will do the following and more:
- Assess your situation and break down your rights and options for your unique case.
- Investigate and use our extensive proprietary database of asbestos-related information to pinpoint the source of your exposure and the parties responsible for your illness.
- Build your case and gather the evidence to support your claim, such as work records, pay stubs, tax records, medical records, and more.
- Develop a strategy for pursuing compensation and determine the best paths available, whether through asbestos trust funds, mesothelioma lawsuits, VA benefits, etc.
- Handle all paperwork and communication.
- Litigate your case and advocate for you in court if out-of-court negotiations are unsuccessful.
Most cases settle before going to trial. However, we will aggressively fight for you in court if that’s what it takes to secure the best possible outcome. Our track record backs this up, with over $1 billion in settlements and verdicts recovered for asbestos-related illness victims in the Pacific Northwest and beyond.

Our firm emphasizes compassionate representation, taking a holistic approach that includes education, service, advocacy, and litigation to provide comprehensive support to clients.
