I’m Lee W. Davis, and I handle asbestos and mesothelioma claims for Pittsburgh-area workers and families. If you’ve been diagnosed with mesothelioma, asbestos lung cancer, or another serious asbestos disease, the first step is a focused consultation that answers three questions:
1) Do you have a compensable exposure history?
Many Pittsburgh-area exposures came from industrial work and maintenance: boiler rooms, pipe systems, refineries, mills, power generation, shipyard-style repairs, and commercial mechanical work. In a consultation, we map your work history to likely asbestos-containing products (insulation, gaskets, packing, refractory materials, cement, and related components).
Because timing matters, we also talk early about proof and deadlines—especially if you’re worried about the Pittsburgh asbestos claim deadline or whether a case could involve a mesothelioma wrongful death lawsuit.
2) Do your records support the claim?
A viable case usually requires:
- A confirmed diagnosis (pathology and imaging)
- Treating physician records
- Work history and jobsite timeline
- Witness support when available (coworkers, family)
- Proof of damages (medical bills, wage loss, and impact on daily life)
If this is a wrongful death situation, we discuss estate steps and the documentation needed to move quickly.

3) What compensation paths are available?
Depending on your exposure and defendants, compensation may come from:
- Lawsuits against responsible companies
- Trust claims (when applicable)
- Coordinated claims strategy to avoid delays and maximize recovery
No two cases are identical. A consultation is where we decide the most direct route—based on your diagnosis date, exposure timeline, and the proof we can lock down immediately.
What to bring to your consultation
If you have them, gather:
- Diagnosis paperwork (pathology reports, discharge summaries)
- A list of employers, trades, and approximate years
- Names of coworkers (even one helps)
- Any old union books, résumés, or jobsite notes
If you don’t have everything, that’s fine. We can start with what you know and build from there.

Frequently Asked Questions
1) How long do I have to file an asbestos or mesothelioma claim in Pennsylvania?
Deadlines depend on the diagnosis date (or, in a death case, the date of death) and other facts. A consultation is the fastest way to confirm the correct filing window for your situation.
2) What if I don’t remember the exact asbestos product name?
That’s common. Most clients remember the trade, the jobsite, the equipment, and the kind of work performed. We build exposure proof from your work history, records, and available witnesses—then identify likely asbestos-containing products from there.
3) Can my family file if the patient has passed away?
Yes. In many cases, the estate and family can pursue a wrongful death/survival claim. The key is acting quickly to preserve records and confirm the proper estate steps.
4) What does a Pittsburgh Asbestos Lawyer Consultation cost?
Nothing up front. The consultation is free, and cases are typically handled on a contingency fee—meaning no attorney fee unless there’s a recovery.
5) What should I bring to the consultation?
If available: diagnosis paperwork (pathology/imaging), a work history list (employers/trades/years), coworker names, and any union/jobsite documents. If you don’t have everything, we can start with what you know.
