What Are Asbestos Trust Funds?
💼 Asbestos Trust Funds: What They Are, How They Help, and Who Is Eligible
Asbestos trust funds were created to ensure that victims of asbestos exposure can still receive compensation—even when the companies responsible have filed for bankruptcy. When courts found that thousands of workers were put at risk by asbestos-containing products, these companies were ordered to set aside billions of dollars for future claims. Today, over $30 billion remains available in these trust funds for eligible individuals and families.
These funds provide vital financial relief for those facing mesothelioma, asbestosis, or asbestos-related lung cancer, helping cover medical costs, lost wages, and emotional suffering.
✅ You May Qualify for Asbestos Trust Fund Compensation If You:
- Have been diagnosed with mesothelioma, asbestosis, or asbestos-related lung cancer
- Worked in high-risk environments such as construction, shipyards, military service, factories, or power plants
- Handled or installed asbestos-containing products such as insulation, tiles, cement, gaskets, pipes, or brake pads
- Lived with someone who worked around asbestos and brought fibers home on their clothing (secondary exposure)
- Can document exposure to specific companies or job sites listed in the trust’s approved exposure history
- Are a surviving spouse, child, or legal representative filing on behalf of a loved one who passed away
📋 What You’ll Need to File a Trust Fund Claim
To begin your claim, you typically need:
- A confirmed medical diagnosis of an asbestos-related disease
- Work history or military records that show potential asbestos exposure
- Product or jobsite identification tied to a specific trust fund
- Medical documents such as pathology reports, X-rays or CT scans, and doctor’s statements
The more complete your documentation, the stronger your claim—and a lawyer can help gather and file all required paperwork.
📅 Why Time Matters
Every asbestos trust has a statute of limitations, often ranging from 1 to 3 years after a diagnosis or death. Waiting too long can mean losing access to tens or even hundreds of thousands of dollars in compensation. Many victims don’t even realize they qualify—until it’s too late.
👨⚖️ How a Lawyer Can Help You Access Multiple Trusts
An experienced mesothelioma lawyer can:
- Identify all trust funds you may qualify for (many victims are eligible for more than one)
- Ensure your paperwork meets each trust’s strict requirements
- Maximize your compensation
- File your claims efficiently—with no upfront fees or out-of-pocket costs
You only pay if they win compensation for you.
