In Missouri, you have five years to bring forth a mesothelioma lawsuit against the parties responsible for your asbestos exposure. If your loved one died because of mesothelioma or another asbestos-related disease, you have three years from the date of their death to file your claim. This is a limited amount of time to identify the source of asbestos exposure, the parties responsible for it, and the legal theories that require them to pay for the damages you sustained. Our experienced mesothelioma lawyers will work closely with you to build a comprehensive legal strategy for your claim.
