"I really like seeing the little guy get protected, especially cases when big companies knew or should have known the dangers to the patient. The incentive for companies to make money without disclosing the dangers is just too great. The only way to stop them from doing it is to carry a big stick and beat the money out of them."

Mesothelioma Lawsuit

Asbestos is the only known cause of mesothelioma. In almost all cases, someone diagnosed with mesothelioma has the right to file a mesothelioma lawsuit to recover compensation.

Most of the manufacturers of asbestos-containing products had knowledge that asbestos was harmful to workers, including the fact that exposure carried the risk of developing mesothelioma. However, these companies did not warn workers of these dangers or take action to protect them. Their actions have cost thousands of lives.

Mesothelioma can take anywhere from 30 to 40 years to manifest. If a person diagnosed with mesothelioma has died, their spouse, children, or estate has the right to file a mesothelioma lawsuit in North Carolina.

Statute of limitations

If you have been diagnosed with mesothelioma, or if you have lost a loved one to mesothelioma, your North Carolina mesothelioma lawsuit must be filed within the statute of limitations.

The North Carolina statute of limitations for personal injury law is three years from the act that causes the injury or the discovery of the injury, with a maximum of ten years from the date of occurrence. Accordingly, individuals who contract mesothelioma must bring a North Carolina mesothelioma lawsuit within ten years from proven exposure to asbestos. Wrongful death cases in North Carolina have a two-year statute of limitations.
