What Compensation Can You Seek From an Armstrong Asbestos Trust Fund or Lawsuit?
Individuals filing an Armstrong asbestos exposure lawsuit or seeking compensation from an asbestos trust fund may be eligible to claim various types of damages.
The specific damages sought will depend on the circumstances of each case, but generally include:
- Medical Expenses: This includes compensation for past and future medical bills related to asbestos-related illnesses like mesothelioma, asbestosis, or esophageal cancer. This includes diagnostic tests, treatments, surgeries, medications, and other healthcare costs.
- Lost Wages: Damages can cover reimbursement for income lost due to the inability to work because of asbestos-related illnesses. This may include both past and future lost earnings.
- Pain and Suffering: This may include damages for physical pain, emotional distress, and the overall impact on the quality of life caused by asbestos-related diseases. This is a non-economic damage that aims to compensate for the intangible suffering experienced.
- Punitive Damages: In some cases, punitive damages may be awarded as a way to punish the responsible party for their negligence and deter similar behavior in the future. However, the availability of punitive damages varies by jurisdiction.
- Wrongful Death Damages: In cases where the asbestos exposure leads to the death of the plaintiff, their surviving family members or estate may file a wrongful death lawsuit. Damages in such cases can include compensation for funeral expenses, loss of financial support, and loss of companionship.
When pursuing compensation from an asbestos trust fund, it’s important to note that these funds are typically established by companies that file for bankruptcy due to asbestos liabilities. See the next section for further information.
