Mesothelioma is a rare and aggressive cancer that is linked to asbestos exposure, which was a major component of the toxic dust released during the collapse of the Twin Towers. Victims of 9/11 who have been diagnosed with mesothelioma may be eligible for substantial compensation.

What is Mesothelioma?

  • A rare cancer affecting the lining of the lungs, heart, or abdomen
  • Caused primarily by exposure to asbestos
  • Symptoms may not appear until decades after exposure
  • Often diagnosed at advanced stages

The Link Between 9/11 and Mesothelioma

The collapse of the World Trade Center released tons of asbestos into the air, which was then inhaled by first responders, recovery workers, and residents. While mesothelioma can take decades to develop, many 9/11 survivors are now being diagnosed with this deadly cancer. Because asbestos exposure is the primary cause of mesothelioma, victims who were present at Ground Zero or in Lower Manhattan during the exposure period may qualify for compensation.

How to File a Mesothelioma Claim

Filing a compensation claim for mesothelioma requires medical records, proof of exposure to asbestos during 9/11, and evidence of how the illness has affected the victim’s life. Because mesothelioma is often diagnosed in its advanced stages, many victims may be eligible for expedited compensation to help cover medical expenses and end-of-life care.
