Frequently Asked Questions
What is the time limit to file a mesothelioma claim in Virginia?
Virginia has a two year statute of limitations for personal injury and wrongful death claims related to asbestos exposure. This deadline starts from the date of diagnosis or date of death. Missing this deadline can bar you from recovering compensation.
Can I file a mesothelioma lawsuit if I was exposed to asbestos outside of Virginia?
Yes, you can file a claim in Virginia if you live in Sterling or if the asbestos exposure occurred in Virginia. Virginia courts generally have jurisdiction over cases where the defendant does business in the state. An attorney can review your work history to determine the best venue.
What damages can I recover in a Virginia mesothelioma case?
You may recover medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and funeral costs. Virginia also allows punitive damages in cases of gross negligence. Compensation from asbestos trust funds may also be available without a lawsuit.
