Corporate defense lawyers want you to delay in taking your mesothelioma case to court.  Why?  There are two main reasons why delays are in their favor:

1. It can take months or even years to complete the legal process for a mesothelioma case.  Sadly, the mesothelioma cure rate is very small, and the average life expectancy after diagnosis is just 8 months.  Defendants do everything they can to delay bringing the case to trial in hopes that the victim will pass away before they can give their deposition.  Without the victim as the primary witness, the case usually isn’t as strong.
2. Statue of Limitations.  The statute of limitations can range anywhere from one to two years after exposure to one or two years after diagnosis, but several factors can affect this and the statute varies from state to state.  You must file your lawsuit within the statute of limitations or you forfeit your rights to seek financial compensation for your pain and loss.

Don’t delay!  It’s vitally important you seek legal representation right away—otherwise, you could be helping the case of those who’ve caused your suffering.
