While the value of asbestos cases can vary depending on multiple factors, our mesothelioma lawyers will fight hard to get you everything you’re entitled to.
A Mesothelioma Lawyer Success Story
In one case, our mesothelioma lawyers helped an agricultural worker secure more than 10 times the average asbestos settlement by building a thorough case and pursuing compensation from every company responsible for his exposure.
Our client's first payment arrived in December 2023. Since then, his family has received 28 additional payouts, with several already in 2026 and more potentially still to come.
So far, our team has secured over $14.5 Million on his behalf:
- $850,000
- $725,000
- $975,000
- $625,000
- $25,000
- $450,000
- $475,000
- $875,000
- $90,000
- $600,000
- $550,000
- $85,000
- $1,000,000
- $1,000,000
- $740,000
- $450,000
- $750,000
- $750,000
- $750,000
- $800,000
- $850,000
- $250,000
- $100,000
- $25,000
- $600,000
- $100,000
- $14,000
- $26,000
- $17,000
Results like this don’t happen by accident. They come from mesothelioma lawyers identifying every possible exposure source, building airtight claims against each responsible company, and refusing to leave compensation on the table — even years after the first payment arrived.
Many asbestos attorneys may not have the investigative infrastructure to manage 29+ separate recoveries across multiple defendants over time. We do.
Since 1979, Sokolove Law has secured over $5.9 Billion for thousands of asbestos exposure victims and their families.

Decades of Experience as Asbestos Lawyers
For more than 45 years, Sokolove Law has helped mesothelioma patients understand their legal options and take action. We know how to navigate the legal system and have successfully helped families in all 50 states.
Asbestos exposure is not always obvious. It can occur in a wide range of environments and may have happened decades before a diagnosis. Our mesothelioma attorneys and investigators can work to uncover where and how exposure occurred.
We regularly investigate claims involving:
- Occupational exposure in industries like construction, shipbuilding, and manufacturing
- Secondhand exposure from asbestos fibers unknowingly brought home on a loved one’s clothing
- Exposure through consumer products, including asbestos-contaminated talcum powder
- Military asbestos exposure across all branches
Everything we’ve learned over the last four decades is used to help our mesothelioma clients get meaningful results and justice as quickly as possible. Let us put our experience to work for you.
Databases of Asbestos Exposure Evidence
Our mesothelioma lawyers have assembled extensive databases of evidence that can help prove when, where, and how you may have been exposed to asbestos.
We can also prove that the companies responsible for your exposure knew asbestos was dangerous but failed to warn workers and consumers.
Our warehouses of evidence include information about:
- A job site database with nearly 100,000 locations where asbestos-containing products were used
- Internal documents showing asbestos-related companies knew the risks but covered them up
- Specific products that contained asbestos
- Different naval ships and military bases where asbestos was present
We can use our vast collection of records on the asbestos industry to build a strong case on your behalf and fight for the most compensation possible.
“I was surprised at the stuff my mesothelioma lawyer knew. He just knew the names of all the pumps and the valves going far back. They were prepared. They could go back to day 1.”
– Walter, U.S. Navy Veteran & Firm Client
VA-Accredited Attorneys on Staff
Military veterans make up approximately one-third of mesothelioma diagnoses in the U.S., largely due to widespread asbestos use across all branches during the 20th century.
At Sokolove Law, we have VA-accredited attorneys on staff who can help veterans gather the evidence needed to file for VA benefits, including service records and a nexus letter from a doctor linking their diagnosis to military asbestos exposure.
A successful VA claim for mesothelioma includes free health care and disability compensation worth over $3,930 per month.
We’re honored to serve those who sacrificed so much for our country. In fact, 42% of our mesothelioma clients are U.S. veterans.
Mesothelioma Trial Lawyer Success
Mesothelioma trial lawyers play an important role in the rare cases that proceed to court. While more than 99% of asbestos cases settle before trial, having a lawyer who can present your case before a judge and jury is key to securing a mesothelioma verdict.
Not all mesothelioma lawyers have taken cases to trial. When settlement negotiations fall short, you deserve a legal team with real courtroom experience that can pursue the compensation you deserve.
Learn about some of the verdicts secured by our mesothelioma trial lawyers:
- $40 Million awarded to a U.S. Navy veteran: Our mesothelioma trial lawyers represented a veteran who was exposed to asbestos-containing gaskets manufactured by Goodyear during his nearly 20 years of service. We presented evidence showing that Goodyear knew about the dangers of asbestos as early as 1939 but failed to warn the public.
- $8.26 Million secured for a mechanic: At one trial, we presented the case of a gas station and school bus mechanic who was exposed to asbestos-containing clutches and brakes made by Ford Motor Company. After 3 weeks, a jury ruled in his favor and held Ford accountable for failing to warn about the dangers of asbestos exposure.
- $34 Million awarded to a refinery worker: Our mesothelioma trial attorneys represented a roofer who worked at a Shell Oil refinery and was exposed to asbestos on the job. We argued that Shell knew about the risks of asbestos but didn’t protect workers. The jury’s award included $25 Million in punitive damages meant to punish the company for their negligence.
Our experienced mesothelioma trial lawyers prepare every case as if it will go to court, so we’re always ready to fight on your behalf — and companies know we won’t back down from a challenge.
This approach is led by seasoned trial attorneys recognized for their courtroom work, including those named to the National Trial Lawyers' Top 100 Trial Attorneys list.
Mesothelioma Attorney Assistance in Spanish
Mesothelioma cases involve complex legal and medical information that can be difficult to navigate, even in your native language. When communication isn’t clear, important details about your diagnosis, exposure history, or legal options can be missed.
Our firm has bilingual staff members who allow us to provide mesothelioma attorney assistance in both English and Spanish, so Spanish-speaking families can receive clear, consistent support throughout the legal process.
We’ll take the time to listen to your concerns, answer your questions, and make sure nothing gets lost in translation, so you can move forward with confidence.
“The legal process was easy for me because, immediately, I was with people who spoke my language, which is Spanish.”
– Alicia, Firm Mesothelioma Client

The mesothelioma attorney fee is typically between 33% and 45% of the amount recovered on your behalf. With no financial risks to taking legal action, anyone can get help filing an asbestos lawsuit, regardless of their economic background. You only stand to potentially profit.
“Clients will be charged nothing to see a lawyer, they’ll be charged nothing for their case to be investigated. They’ll only pay on a mesothelioma lawsuit if their case is successful.”

What should I avoid when choosing a mesothelioma lawyer?
Not all attorneys are able to handle the complexity of asbestos cases. Be wary of hiring anyone who lacks experience in asbestos litigation or doesn’t have the resources to fully investigate complex, decades-old exposure histories across multiple job sites and jurisdictions.
Avoid mesothelioma lawyers who:
- Have little or no asbestos litigation experience: Because exposure often happened 20–50 years ago, you need a team that understands how to reconstruct work history, identify historical asbestos-containing products, and trace exposure across decades.
- Are limited to a single location or region: Exposure can span multiple states or employers, and responsible companies may be headquartered far from the site of the exposure.
- Don’t pursue all compensation sources: Trust funds, lawsuits, and veterans’ benefits can all play a role in maximizing recovery — and not all attorneys are able to pursue compensation from each one.
- Lack the resources to investigate multiple defendants: These cases often involve dozens of defendants, and effective representation requires the ability to actively investigate, file, and manage claims against multiple parties simultaneously.
The best mesothelioma lawyers are those who can identify every exposure source and pursue all available avenues of compensation to maximize recovery.
