What you can claim for
Compensation for pain and suffering
If you have developed Mesothelioma or any other asbestos related disease (except symptomless pleural plaques) you will be entitled to compensation for the pain and suffering, inconvenience, disability and loss of amenity caused by the injury.
Medical and other expenses
These include travel expenses to hospital prescription charges together with the cost of any private health treatment such as consultations with chest physicians, x-rays and CT scans.
Loss of wages
If you have had to give up work because of Mesothelioma or an asbestos disease or your earnings have dropped as a result of it, or you have been away from work you can claim for all these losses. You can also include a claim for future loss of earnings.
Loss of earning capacity
It is often the case that people suffering from Mesothelioma or any other asbestos related disease cannot, because of the disability, earn as much money as they used to. In addition these days someone with an asbestos disease may have to disclose this on a job application form, thereby reducing the chance of obtaining work. This loss of earning capacity can be included in a claim.
Care
If because of Mesothelioma or any other asbestos disease you require care on either a short term, medium or long term basis, you can claim for this care even if the help is given freely by a partner, relative or friend.
Mobility expenses
Where Mesothelioma or any other asbestos disease is such that your mobility has been affected you will be entitled to compensation for the loss of that mobility be it short term or more permanent.
Aids and adaptions
If the Mesothelioma or any other asbestos related disease is such that you require any aids or adaptions in the house such as a stairlift, special bedding or bathroom equipment or the need for ground floor accommodation you can claim for these.
Loss of pension
If as a result of your injury you have or will suffer a pension loss this can be included in the claim. It is often the case that there will be a loss if you have been in an occupational pension scheme and have had to give up work early.
