We received another settlement check from my dads class action attorney. It was $500 and something. The attorney fees are pretty crazy. I think the whole settlement on our end was $1250. Not complaining as we really don't have to do anything. We just collect when it's time.
I do not know how many other people our lawyer on these asbestos cases is working for. I'm guessing hundreds - maybe thousands. Really don't know.
I wonder how many of these companies are still around to even collect from as this stuff that went on with my dad and these merchant marines was 50 years ago. Not to mention the economy and the business bankruptcies.
I'm not sure how many other cases are pending or possible or how many years these settlement checks will continue. They aren't big medical death payout settlements usually. I think the largest estate payout we got was $7000 and that was several years ago.
