What Do Lung Tumor Lawyers Do?
A lung tumor lawyer helps patients diagnosed with asbestos lung cancer, asbestosis, and other asbestos-related diseases seek financial compensation.
Asbestos materials were used across many industries like construction and manufacturing, and exposure can cause lung cancer later in life. Manufacturers of asbestos-containing products hid the health risks from the general public for decades.
As a result, it’s possible to pursue compensation with help from an attorney if you or a loved one developed a lung tumor. You may qualify to file even if you smoked.
Lung tumor lawyers handle every part of the legal process, including:
- Case evaluation: A lawyer will offer a free consultation to review your case and determine if you can pursue compensation.
- Evidence gathering: They’ll collect documentation to help build the strongest case possible, such as medical records, work history, proof of asbestos exposure, and expert testimonies.
- Filing claims: Your lawyer will submit your lung tumor claim within any set deadlines.
- Negotiating payout: Your legal team will negotiate on your behalf to secure maximum financial compensation for your injuries through lung tumor settlements and, in rare cases, trial verdicts.

Types of Claims Lung Tumor Lawyers Handle
Lung tumor lawyers help clients pursue different types of legal claims depending on their asbestos exposure history and lung cancer diagnosis.
Learn about which lung tumor claims an attorney could help you file below.
Lung Tumor Lawsuits
A personal injury lung tumor lawsuit allows the patient to seek compensation from the companies responsible for their asbestos exposure and cancer diagnosis.
Lung cancer lawsuits can award patients money for medical expenses, lost wages, and other damages.
Top lung tumor lawyers handle all the work of these lawsuits, allowing you to focus on your health while still seeking the compensation you deserve.
Wrongful Death Lawsuits
A wrongful death lawsuit is filed by families who lost a loved one to lung cancer. Representatives of a lung cancer victim’s estate may also qualify.
The compensation from wrongful death lung tumor lawsuits can help recoup funeral costs, loss of income, leftover medical bills, and more.
Call (877) 446-5767 now to find out if you can pursue a payout with help from a lung tumor lawyer.
Asbestos Trust Fund Claims
Many companies that used asbestos-containing products set up trusts to compensate their victims while avoiding lawsuits. Asbestos trust fund claims can potentially provide lung cancer victims with compensation faster than a lawsuit.
A lung tumor lawyer can file asbestos trust fund claims and lawsuits on your behalf, if eligible.
Settlements & Verdicts Secured by Lung Tumor Lawyers
Lung tumor attorneys work to secure out-of-court settlements, which allow clients to get compensation in a shorter amount of time. In the rare event a lung cancer settlement can’t be reached, your lawyers can fight for a favorable trial verdict.
Each case is different, but lung tumor attorneys in our network have secured millions from past settlements and verdicts.
Our legal partners have recently secured:
- $3 million to a Missouri woman
- $1.6 million to a California plumber and his wife
