Early, Lucarelli, Sweeney & Meisenkothen is a national law firm recognized for its representation of over 5,000 hardworking men and women who have been exposed to asbestos and diagnosed with mesothelioma. ELSM devotes nearly 100 percent of our resources to mesothelioma cases and has been doing so for over 40 years.

The attorneys at ELSM have extensive knowledge about the companies that distributed, manufactured, and supplied products containing asbestos and have used this knowledge to obtain settlements and jury verdicts which are among the highest in the country.

ELSM assists clients not only in filing civil lawsuits to recover for their injuries, but also in filing workers compensation and bankruptcy claims where appropriate.

Asbestos & Mesothelioma

Malignant mesothelioma is the most serious of all asbestos related disease. Although uncommon, mesothelioma cancer is no longer considered rare.

Mesothelioma Treatment

Ongoing research and mesothelioma treatments like Alimta® can give mesothelioma patients hope.

Your Legal Rights

Our justice system allows those suffering from mesothelioma to seek compensation from the manufacturers of asbestos and asbestos-containing products.

Why Choose ELSM?


Early, Lucarelli, Sweeney & Meisenkothen
is nationally recognized for our representation of mesothelioma victims, and for our understanding of and compassion for victims and their families. Our experience in these matters spans over three decades.

ELSM is proud to support MARF (Mesothelioma Applied Research Foundation) in its work to fund mesothelioma research.

I am very pleased with the law firm Early, Lucarelli, Sweeney & Meisenkothen and feel that they have always had my best interest at heart. Whenever I have had questions to be answered, I could (and can) count on prompt answers by calling the person with whom I have had the most contact, Jennifer Lucarelli. She has always treated me like a life-long friend.

At Hirsch Andrade, LLP, we prepare every personal injury or wrongful death case as if we are going to take it to trial. Our practice emphasizes early investigation to preserve evidence, engage forensic experts, and document the components of your personal injury claim. Even though we very often settle our clients' claims on favorable terms, our trial preparation mindset is highly effective in getting our insurance defense opponents to deal with your claim fairly.

Most of all, we are trial lawyers committed to providing the best client service possible for people who have been seriously or fatally injured.  We handle a wide range of personal injury claims, including wrongful death, traumatic brain injuries, medical malpractice, nursing home negligence, premises liability claims, defective products cases and motor vehicle collisions.

We represent clients on a contingency fee basis.  In other words, you owe no attorney's fee until we obtain a settlement or verdict for you.  In addition, our past success allows us to commit very substantial legal, investigative, and forensic resources to cases from the very first stages of our engagement.  This enables us to preserve and develop the evidence that is essential to providing liability and documenting the full extent of your damages.  We advance the expenses of this commitment at our own risk.  For a free consultation about our approach to client service in your situation, contact our Bridgeport or Danbury office.
