The lawyers at ELSM are dedicated to representing you honestly and effectively.

Attorneys at Early, Lucarelli, Sweeney & Meisenkothen focus completely on mesothelioma litigation and have a deep understanding of the unique legal concerns that mesothelioma cases present. We represent clients nationwide and are proud to have represented mesothelioma clients in every single state in the United States. We take great pride in the work we do.

Meet Our Partners And Associates

Our partners and associates are equipped to provide you with up-to-the-minute information needed to understand and treat your illness, as well as to counsel you on which legal options are available to preserve your financial security, and that of your family. ELSM's initial consultations are 100% free of charge and, since ELSM works on a contingency basis, you will NEVER be charged anything out of your own pocket. We only get paid if we make a recovery on your behalf.

In Memoriam

During his distinguished career, attorney Robert Sweeney represented hundreds of mesothelioma victims and their families. He believed that only through hard work, preparation, and personal attention could the victim of asbestos poisoning obtain the justice which he or she deserved. Attorney Sweeney worked tirelessly with his clients and their families so that the courts, the juries and the asbestos defendants fully knew and appreciated his clients’ life stories and suffering. We miss Bob tremendously.
