When a company that made or used asbestos files for bankruptcy, the court typically requires it to fund a trust that pays people diagnosed later. Each trust sets its own payment percentage, and those percentages change as the trust’s assets and claim volume change. The articles below track individual trusts, what they have paid, and the rule changes that affect claimants.
For the background rather than the case coverage, see how asbestos trust fund claims work. Deadlines to file differ by state — check the filing deadline for your state.
