About Our Mesothelioma and Asbestos Law Firm

We're the Law Offices of Justinian C. Lane, and we represent families dealing with mesothelioma, lung cancer, asbestosis, and other asbestos-related diseases. Justinian started the firm in 2014, after his own family's losses to asbestos, and what began as a one-person practice in Texas is now a national firm with offices in the Austin, Phoenix, and Seattle areas. We've recovered more than $400 million for our clients through trust claims, lawsuits, and benefit programs, and we've never charged a family a fee unless we recovered for them.

Why this work is personal

Justinian lost his father and both of his maternal grandparents to asbestos-related cancers, and no one in the family connected those illnesses to asbestos until years after they were gone. He's a cancer survivor himself, so he knows the fear of a diagnosis and the weight of caring for someone through one. That's why the firm exists, and why no family we talk to leaves without understanding the options in front of them. Meet mesothelioma lawyer Justinian Lane.

How we work

Over the past decade we've built our practice around three things. We reconstruct your full exposure history, back to childhood, because the exposure that started the disease is often one you'd never think of. We trace every exposure to the companies responsible, from the manufacturers to the distributors, the contractors, and the businesses that later absorbed them. And we pursue every channel that fits your case while structuring the work so the trust money you recover is protected if a lawsuit doesn't succeed. Why families choose our firm.

The paths to compensation

An asbestos diagnosis can open more than one path to compensation, and most families qualify for several at once. Depending on your history, that can include claims against the asbestos bankruptcy trusts, lawsuits against companies still in business, workers' compensation, and VA or Social Security benefits. We help you find every option that fits your situation and pursue the ones that make sense for your family, with no pressure to file a lawsuit if that isn't what you want.

Learn more about asbestos and mesothelioma

We think families make better decisions when they understand what they're facing, so we've put years into explaining asbestos disease, legal options, and the claims process in plain language. Our asbestos lexicon defines more than 1,000 medical and legal terms you'll run into along the way, and our YouTube channel has more than 300 videos covering everything from how trust claims work to what to expect after a diagnosis. If you'd rather start with the disease itself, our mesothelioma guide walks through the types, symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment, and our asbestos resources cover what asbestos is and where it came from.
