Mesothelioma Is All We Do

For over 30 years, our attorneys have represented families devastated by asbestos exposure. We've recovered more than $2 billion because this work isn't a side practice — it's our entire purpose.

Why We Exist

Whitman Mesothelioma Law Firm was founded on a simple belief: families facing a mesothelioma diagnosis deserve an attorney who understands their situation — medically, legally, and personally.

Mesothelioma is a rare and aggressive cancer caused almost exclusively by asbestos exposure. For decades, companies knew asbestos was deadly and chose profits over human lives. The workers, veterans, and families who trusted those companies deserve justice.

That's what we fight for. Every day. It's the only kind of law we practice.

Our Approach

Most law firms that advertise for mesothelioma cases treat them as one practice area among dozens. We don't. Our entire firm is built around asbestos litigation — which means every system, every relationship, and every piece of knowledge we've accumulated over 30 years is focused on getting the best possible outcome for your family.

When you call Whitman, you speak with your attorney — not a call center, not a paralegal, not a case manager at an office in another state. Michelle Whitman, supported by the trial experience and resources of Danziger & De Llano, LLP, handles your case personally from the first conversation through final resolution.

Focused Expertise

Mesothelioma and asbestos litigation is all we do. That singular focus means we know every trust fund, every responsible company, and every legal strategy that applies to your case.

Personal Representation

Your attorney is your point of contact. We meet with families in person, return calls the same day, and never hand your case off to someone you haven't met.

No Fee Unless We Win

We work on contingency. You pay nothing upfront, nothing out of pocket, and no fee at all unless we recover compensation for your family.

California & Texas Roots

We know the shipyards, refineries, and industrial sites where California and Texas workers were exposed to asbestos — because we've been building cases in these communities for decades.
