Mesothelioma Applied Research Foundation
http://www.curemeso.org
The Mesothelioma Applied Research Foundation (formerly known as MARF) is a national non-profit organization dedicated to finding a cure for mesothelioma.

ATTENTION: Mesothelioma has no known cure and often causes severe pain, suffering, and other types of damage, such as loss of consortium, and loss of income. Additionally, due to the exceedingly high cost of mesothelioma treatments, many families exhaust savings and accumulate financial debt in order to pay for the medical expenses of their family member.

Under the law of most states, pain and suffering from mesothelioma may be compensated through the award of money damages, usually obtained with the help of experienced mesothelioma attorneys. In some states other types of damages may also be recovered.

Asbestos litigation affords mesothelioma victims the opportunity to receive financial compensation and hold accountable the companies that caused their asbestos exposure.

IMPORTANT: If you or your family member has been diagnosed with mesothelioma, you should get in touch with a mesothelioma lawyer as early as possible to determine if you have a mesothelioma case and to:

Preserve your rights to bring a legal action against the responsible parties within the limited time frame allowed by law, known as statute of limitations;
Obtain maximum compensation in your case by being able to:
- Preserve evidence and establish facts of the asbestos exposure while the claimant is still alive and able to provide information;
- File and resolve a lawsuit against the responsible parties before they file for bankruptcy or, if they already have, to obtain compensation before their bankruptcy trust funds run out of money;
Expedite your case, as courts tend to give higher priority to mesothelioma lawsuits where the claimant is still alive.

Find out whether you have a case by speaking to one of our experienced mesothelioma lawyers via our 24/7 toll-free hotline at 1-800-MESO-LAW (1-800-637-6529) or by submitting an email inquiry (see form above). Our attorneys will be quick to respond to you and happy to answer all of your questions.

I cannot say enough good things about Levy Konigsberg and the support and service that they provided our family during the time we used their firm in 2013/2014. My dad had been very sick and they were so amazing with checking up on him to see how he was doing. They also made house calls traveling from NYC 45 minutes away to NJ for appointments with my dad and mom.My whole family developed such a nice relationship with the attorneys and the firm while they were preparing for my father's case. They made sure we had support with his medical care and when my dad passed they were there for my mom and family 100%.When we went to trial they were incredibly prepared, and defended our family in this case with the outmost professionalism.We won the case and it was so nice to know that my mom and all the medical bills would be taken care of along with our whole family. It was so hard loosing my dad, he was the rock of the family but having such amazing attorneys and a firm that provided us world class impeccable service the entire time was so comforting.We are so grateful to have won our case and to have Levy Konisberg represent my dad and our family.

My family and I lost my husband 10 years ago after he was diagnosed with mesothelioma due to asbestos exposure. We are very pleased we chose Levy Konigsberg Law Firm to defend my husband's rights and protect our family. They were not only knowledgeable but also compassionate. It was comforting to know they were diligently working on his case so we could focus on his medical care. Levy Konigsberg became part of our journey and we are forever grateful.

The law firm of Levy and Konigsberg has been handling my father's asbestos case for quite some time. They've been diligent in getting settlements from over 20 companies and continued to pursue his case after he passed away in 2014. I worked with them on an issue with the Medicare lien associated with his settlements and they handled that easily. I'd recommend their firm as one that not only works for their client in settling cases but establishes a personal connection with the family as well.

I can't praise Levy Konigsberg enough for their exceptional handling of my father's case. From the very beginning, the attorneys and entire staff showed great compassion to my family, and they were extremely diligent in developing and filing my dad's claims. Rest assured, this firm's attorneys are the best and brightest! They never failed to keep us informed of all important developments in the case, and they always gave a realistic idea of when the matter would be resolved. I always felt that my dad was excellently represented, and that his case was in the best hands. My dad was always treated more like a family member, than a client. Our family will be forever grateful!
