Specialist mesothelioma Solicitors
Mesothelioma is an aggressive cancer affecting the lining of the lungs (pleura) or abdomen (peritoneum). It is almost exclusively caused by exposure to asbestos. Being diagnosed with this condition is devastating, and we understand that your immediate priority is quality of time with your family, not paperwork. However, securing financial support quickly is vital to ensure you have access to the best possible care.
At WE Solicitors, our Manchester-based team treats mesothelioma cases with the highest priority. We utilise the “Fast-Track” High Court procedure to bypass standard delays. Our goal is to secure substantial interim payments within weeks of admission of liability. These funds are critical because they allow you to access private medical treatments, such as immunotherapy, which may not be available on the NHS. We visit you in the comfort of your own home to handle the legal complexities, allowing you to focus on your health and your family.
