Additionally, even if you think you&#8217;re outside of the statute of limitations, your lawyer may still be able to help you get compensation.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"heading-icon icon-compensation\">Asbestos Trust Funds in Mississippi<\/h3>\n<p>If a normal lawsuit cannot be filed since the statute of limitations has passed, Mississippi mesothelioma lawyers can see if compensation is available through an <a href=\"\/legal\/asbestos-trust-funds\/\">asbestos trust fund<\/a>. Today, over <strong>$30 billion<\/strong> is available in asbestos trust funds, and you may be able to file a claim to access some of this money.<\/p>\n<p>Federal courts ordered bankrupt manufacturers of asbestos-based products to set aside money in asbestos trust funds. These companies were usually found guilty of exposing their employees to asbestos without revealing the health risks.<\/p>\n<p>Because asbestos trust funds are managed by companies, they have their own time limits that are separate from state statutes of limitations.<\/p>\n<p>A Mississippi mesothelioma lawyer will check to see if you meet the criteria to apply for compensation through an <strong>asbestos trust fund<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<div data-vqueid=\"18460\" class=\"widget widget_oscar-vque default image-right has-img\"><style type=\"text\/css\" data-style=\"default\">.widget_oscar-vque.default{margin:60px auto;max-width:315px}.widget_oscar-vque.default:first-child{margin-top:0}.widget_oscar-vque.default:last-child{margin-bottom:0}.widget_oscar-vque.default>a{background:#2F293D;display:block;padding:20px;border-radius:10px;color:#fff;text-decoration:none}.widget_oscar-vque.default img{margin:0 auto 20px;max-width:150px;width:100%}.widget_oscar-vque.default .vque-content{font-size:16px;text-align:center}.widget_oscar-vque.default strong.subheading{display:block;line-height:1;font-size:14px;margin-bottom:5px}.widget_oscar-vque.default strong.heading{font-size:20px;display:block;margin:0 0 25px}.widget_oscar-vque.default ul{font-size:16px;text-align:left;list-style:none;max-width:265px;line-height:1.4;margin:15px auto 25px}.widget_oscar-vque.default ul li{padding-left:28px;margin-bottom:10px}.widget_oscar-vque.default ul li:last-child{margin-bottom:0}.widget_oscar-vque.default ul li:before{font-family:\"mesohope\" !important;font-display:swap;speak:none;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;font-variant:normal;text-transform:none;line-height:1;-webkit-font-smoothing:antialiased;-moz-osx-font-smoothing:grayscale;content:\"\\e904\";border:none;position:absolute;left:0;top:0;background:#0FAEBF;width:20px;height:20px;border-radius:20px;line-height:20px;text-align:center;font-size:12px}.widget_oscar-vque.default strong.button.arrow{width:100%}@media screen and (min-width: 768px){.widget_oscar-vque.default{max-width:620px}.widget_oscar-vque.default>a{padding:0}.widget_oscar-vque.default>a>div{display:block;display:flex;align-items:center;flex-wrap:wrap;flex-direction:row-reverse}.widget_oscar-vque.default>a>div>div{padding:0 25px 0 0;width:41%}.widget_oscar-vque.default>a .vque-content{width:59%;padding:30px;text-align:left}.widget_oscar-vque.default img{max-width:90%;margin-bottom:0}.widget_oscar-vque.default strong.subheading{font-size:16px}.widget_oscar-vque.default strong.heading{font-size:24px;margin:0 0 16px}.widget_oscar-vque.default ul{max-width:none}.widget_oscar-vque.default strong.button.arrow{width:auto}.widget_oscar-vque.default.image-left>a>div{display:block;position:relative;overflow:hidden}.widget_oscar-vque.default.image-left>a>div img{max-width:100%}.widget_oscar-vque.default.image-left>a>div>div{float:left}.widget_oscar-vque.default.image-left>a>div>div:first-child{width:27%;padding:30px}.widget_oscar-vque.default.image-left>a>div>div.vque-content{width:73%;padding-left:0}}<\/style><a href=\"\/access-asbestos-trust-funds\/\" title=\"Access Asbestos<br\/>Trust Funds\" class=\"cte\" data-ce-category=\"In-Content Ads\" data-ce-label=\"Access Asbestos<br\/>Trust Funds Ad\"  data-mobile-image=\"https:\/\/www.mesotheliomahope.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/trust-fund-couple.png\"data-desktop-image=\"https:\/\/www.mesotheliomahope.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/trust-fund-image.png\"><div><div><div class=\"image-fade\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"414\" height=\"422\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mesotheliomahope.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/trust-fund-image.png\" class=\"no-lazyload wp-post-image\" alt=\"A lawyer shares documents with a client\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mesotheliomahope.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/trust-fund-image.png 414w, https:\/\/www.mesotheliomahope.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/trust-fund-image-294x300.png 294w, https:\/\/www.mesotheliomahope.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/trust-fund-image-55x55.png 55w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 414px) 100vw, 414px\" \/><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vque-content\"><strong class=\"heading\">Access Asbestos<br\/>Trust Funds<\/strong><ul>\n<li>More than $30 billion available<\/li>\n<li>$300K-$400K average compensation<\/li>\n<li>Get money in 90 days or less<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong class=\"button arrow\" title=\"Check If You Qualify\">Check If You Qualify<\/strong><\/p><\/div><\/div><\/a><\/div>\n<h2 id=\"veterans\">Mississippi VA Information for Mesothelioma Veterans<\/h2>\n<p>Home to four military bases and over 190,000 U.S. military veterans, Mississippi has played a key role in past and present wars.<\/p>\n<p>Sadly, many <a href=\"\/veterans\/\">U.S. veterans<\/a> are at a higher risk of mesothelioma.
