What are the chances of winning a mesothelioma lawsuit?
Written by admin on February 26, 2010 – 3:47 pm -My father-in-law was recently diagnosed with mesothelioma. He is a disabled vet on a limited income. The life expectancy is only 4-18 months. He and my mother-in-law have filed a lawsuit against the asbestos manufacturer. The concern is that they have very little money and without compensation we are afraid that my mother-in-law will lose their house when he passes. Does anyone have experience with this?
Thanks for answering. The lawyer says that because he has the disease that we have a good case. Mesothelioma is caused almost exclusively by asbestos exposure.
We have filed the suit against the manufacturer because we believe that he was exposed while working in the boiler room while in the army and suing the army just isn’t an option.
The lawyer we have retained has been involved with thousands of these cases. He has given us examples of awards won by his law firm, but I want to know what the chances are of not winning.

Tax question about 1041 filing for decedent with with an asbestos lawsuit?
Written by admin on February 26, 2010 – 3:47 pm -Help MOB….how do I file a 1041 for a benefeciary that has set up an estate trust and has an income from a lawsuit?
I believe that those funds will be exempt from taxes because they belong to someone that has died; however, I am having trouble locating the exact forms I may need to submit for this strange filing.
Yes it was for damages….thanks i knew that it was exempt; however, i am trying to find the form that I can submit that ask for the EIN…. set up some time ago upon the death.
