Our California mesothelioma lawyers file talc and asbestos lawsuits for individuals diagnosed with cancer of the lungs. California mesothelioma lawsuits claim the manufacturers of common talcum powder and asbestos products failed to warn of the cancer risk.
As such, CA talc or asbestos handlers diagnosed with mesothelioma may be eligible to claim a cash settlement.
California Mesothelioma Lawyers Advocate for Talc and Asbestos Victims
Our team of California mesothelioma attorneys have represented thousands of victims of toxic products. In doing so, we have recovered millions of dollars in settlement funds on their behalf.
However, we only pursue compensation from talc and asbestos manufacturers and their affiliates, and do not file claims against our clients’ doctors or employers.
No Legal Fee Unless You Obtain a Settlement
While compensation may be available to qualified mesothelioma claimants, victims are urged to act promptly. The #1 claim California talc and asbestos victims can make for mesothelioma compensation is one filed within the Statute of Limitations. (Follow this link for our latest information on mesothelioma.)
Our California mesothelioma lawyers are available to review claims now. We offer a free case evaluation to confirm the use of a qualified talcum powder or asbestos product and diagnosis of a related cancer. Further, we never charge a legal fee unless a financial recovery is obtained for our client.

California Talcum Powder and Asbestos Lawyers File Cancer Lawsuits
9th Circuit Mesothelioma Claims in California
California is part of the Ninth Circuit of the federal court system, and individual mesothelioma lawsuits can be filed at its local U.S. District Court. Talcum powder and asbestos appeals are heard by the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals.
However, federal mesothelioma lawsuits filed in California may be transferred to a centralized jurisdiction pursuant to a talc/asbestos consolidation order. (Follow this link for our additional information on 9th Circuit mesothelioma compensation.)
California State Mesothelioma Claims
California mesothelioma lawyers can also file talc and asbestos lawsuits in the State’s county courts (CA Courts website). Section 1714 of the California Civil Code sets forth the State’s procedural law for lung cancer claims.
The State of California follows a pure comparative negligence rule. Accordingly, a California mesothelioma lawyer can recover damages for wrongful conduct by talc or asbestos manufacturers regardless of what portion of fault may be assigned to the plaintiff. However, the respiratory victim’s recovery is reduced by their own degree of fault (if any).
