VA Benefits For Mesothelioma & Lung Cancer

We Can Help You Get The Benefits You Deserve

Which Best Describes You?

Why Does This Matter?

It is important that you identify yourself as either a U.S. military veteran or as the child or spouse of a veteran who died from a service-connected disability. The type of compensation and benefits you are entitled to, as well as the claims process for receiving those benefits, differs for veterans and survivors.

For veterans who have been diagnosed with mesothelioma or lung cancer, our knowledgeable attorneys can help you pursue maximum compensation by:

  • Identifying the asbestos manufacturers that were responsible for your exposure and resulting illness
  • Filing claims through asbestos trust funds
  • Negotiating settlements with or pursuing lawsuits against the companies that put you in harm’s way
  • Filing for VA benefits through our VA-accredited claims representative

For the spouse or child of a veteran who died from mesothelioma or lung cancer, our compassionate lawyers can help you cope with the financial burden you are facing by:

  • Pursuing a wrongful death claim to recover compensation for funeral and burial expenses, your loved one’s health care expenses, lost wages and benefits, the value of lost support and services, any inheritance lost by surviving children, and the nurturing and care the children no longer receive
  • Filing a claim for compensation for the pain and suffering your loved one experienced before death due to the disease
  • Filing for Dependency and Indemnity Compensation (DIC) survivor benefits with the help of our VA-accredited claims representative

We know that veterans and their families need all the support they can get after a mesothelioma or lung cancer diagnosis.

You deserve an experienced advocate who will fight for full and fair compensation from the company that exposed you to asbestos.

Questions

No, our mesothelioma lawyers do not file claims against the Navy or any other branches of the military.

Instead, we use our extensive database of asbestos manufacturers to identify the companies that provided asbestos products to the Navy.

These are the companies that should be held accountable for recklessly endangering your health by failing to warn people about the hazards of asbestos.

Yes, we will help you identify all your options for pursuing the money you need to cover your medical bills and lost wages, as well as compensation to account for the physical and emotional pain and suffering you have endured due to your illness.
