Connect With a Military Asbestos & Mesothelioma Attorney
Veterans of any branch diagnosed with mesothelioma, asbestosis, or an asbestos-related lung cancer may have a legal claim against the asbestos product manufacturers whose materials were allegedly present in the vehicles, aircraft, ships, and buildings where they served. O'Brien Law Firm represents veterans and their families in the civil product claim at no upfront cost — a claim against the manufacturers, never against the military, and separate from any VA disability benefits.
If you were diagnosed with an asbestos-related disease after being exposed during your service, a filing deadline may already be running. You may have a legal claim now — and claims can often be pursued even if the company is out of business.
Surviving spouses and children may pursue a wrongful-death claim and asbestos-trust recovery on a loved one's behalf — a separate deadline that can run from the date of passing.
- Free case evaluation — no obligation to hire
- No attorney fee unless a financial recovery is made
- Personal-injury and wrongful-death claims both evaluated
- Civil claims against asbestos manufacturers & bankruptcy trust funds
- Runs in parallel with VA benefits — a civil claim does not reduce VA disability compensation
VA disability benefits are separate. A VA disability claim for asbestos exposure is filed directly with the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs — not through this firm or any attorney. To file, visit VA.gov › Hazardous Materials Exposure, call 1‑800‑827‑1000, or contact a Veterans Service Organization (DAV, VFW, American Legion) for free claim assistance. The attorney's role is limited to the civil product claim against asbestos manufacturers.
