How Much Does Hiring a Mesothelioma Lawyer Cost?

Our mesothelioma lawyers have the resources to handle all the costs associated with preparing and filing your lawsuit. You won’t be required to pay anything upfront — we only get paid if you do.

“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.”
– Jim Sokolove, Firm Founder (Retired 2013)

Our Firm’s Mission: Providing Equal Access to Justice

As an established mesothelioma law firm, Sokolove Law was founded in 1979 with the goal of making the legal process accessible to all. 

When Attorney Jim Sokolove established the firm, he realized that a large portion of the population couldn’t access legal help — because they couldn't afford it. His vision was to change that.

Jim created one of the first nationwide networks of experienced mesothelioma lawyers, bringing high-quality legal representation to families across the country — at no out-of-pocket cost.

His innovative approach allowed everyone, regardless of their background or financial situation, to pursue compensation without worrying about legal costs.

“Hiring Sokolove Law was the smartest thing we ever did. Filing the lawsuit was easy because the firm made it easy. We didn’t have to do anything.”
– John, Firm Mesothelioma Client

How long does it take to settle a mesothelioma case?

In as few as 90 days, many of our clients start receiving payouts from their mesothelioma claims.

The exact payout timeline for mesothelioma will depend on the specifics of each case, but our asbestos lawyers will work hard to get you compensation as quickly as possible.

Who pays mesothelioma claims?

Mesothelioma claims are paid for by the companies that made, sold, or distributed the asbestos-containing products a mesothelioma patient was exposed to.

Many of these companies knew asbestos was dangerous, but they chose to hide the dangers for decades to protect their profits. As a result, families can hold them liable for their illness and seek compensation.

What is the time limit for mesothelioma claims?

The time limit for mesothelioma claims can be as little as 1 year after a diagnosis or the death of a loved one.

This deadline varies by state and is established by laws known as statutes of limitations. Once the deadline passes in your case, you won’t be able to take legal action.
