Understanding Asbestos Trust Fund Compensation
For decades, companies that manufactured asbestos-containing products were aware of the health risks. Today, billions of dollars are held in Asbestos Trust Funds specifically reserved to compensate victims of mesothelioma and asbestos-related lung cancer.
Factors for Claim Valuation:
- Diagnosis Type: Malignant mesothelioma claims receive the highest priority and valuation due to the severity of the illness.
- Occupational Exposure: Workers in Navy shipyards, power plants, and the construction industry have a higher probability of exposure to friable asbestos.
- Trust Fund Payment Percentages: Each trust fund pays a certain percentage of the claim value to ensure funds remain available for future claimants.
