Mesothelioma attorney Jim Kramer explains the mesothelioma lawsuit process.

[MUSIC PLAYING] Typically, once mesothelioma victims are diagnosed, they don't know what to do next. The process, as we explain it, is very simple, and we try to help them as much as we can. The next thing that happens is talking to the person you want to represent you, learning about all the types of exposures that may have occurred 20, 30, 40 years in the past. Once that occurs, the lawyer takes over, files the case, and does the due diligence of which companies might be responsible for the asbestos exposure for this individual. From there, depositions may occur if the client wants to go in that direction, or there's also the option of filing with certain bankruptcy trusts. Eventually, depending on how the case progresses, the case may go to trial, in which case, we provide the best possible trial advocacy to compensate the victim. [MUSIC PLAYING]
