Mesothelioma Compensation Some people who develop mesothelioma due to asbestos exposure may be able to claim compensation. Your legal entitlements will depend on the state or territory in which you were exposed to asbestos. In some cases, the exposure may have occurred overseas. Mesothelioma takes a long time to develop, so your exposure to asbestos may have occurred some 40 years ago. You might think it was a trivial exposure, or you may not remember any exposure. Talking to your friends and family can help to bring back memories of places where you may have been exposed to asbestos. An expert lawyer will also talk you through your life history and help you find out where the exposure took place. They will explain what compensation you may be able to claim and help make the process easy for you to understand. Generally, a person diagnosed with mesothelioma has two different types of legal entitlements: a claim through the court, known as a "common law claim" a claim under a government compensation scheme, known as a "statutory claim". "When my husband was diagnosed with terminal mesothelioma, we were advised to apply for compensation. He reluctantly contacted lawyers, and they assured us we had a very strong case. My husband didn't survive to `win' his case but I did, with a lot of help, caring, understanding and good advice from our lawyers." – Sharon Common law claim A common law claim is a claim process through a court. The claim is brought against the party or parties who caused a person to be exposed to asbestos. These parties are known as the "defendants". A common law claim begins by filing a formal court document known as an "originating process". The originating process must be lodged within your lifetime to protect your entitlement to compensation. As long as you start a common law claim during your lifetime, your estate will still be able to continue with your claim if you die before the claim is finalised. You need to speak with a lawyer experienced in asbestos-related compensation claims as soon as possible after your diagnosis. If you're too unwell to visit the lawyer in their office, they can visit you at home or in hospital to discuss the process and how it can be simplified for you and your family. t may still be possible to bring a common law claim even if: you were exposed to asbestos many years ago you no longer work for the employer where you were exposed you have worked for many employers you were self-employed or a contractor your employer is no longer in business you are, or were, a smoker you were exposed to asbestos in another state or overseas you were not exposed in the workplace you were only briefly exposed to asbestos you were exposed to asbestos on more than one occasion you don't know how you may have been exposed to asbestos. Finding a lawyer Making a mesothelioma claim is a specialised area. It is important to talk to a lawyer or law firm experienced in this area of work, as they often have a wealth of knowledge about how and where asbestos was used. You can find a leading lawyer in asbestos by checking the Doyles Guide Directory – visit doylesguide.com/australia and type "asbestos" in the search bar. Mesothelioma support organisations can also assist you in contacting an expert asbestos lawyer. Talking to an expert in this field can help reduce the time taken to investigate a claim. Experienced lawyers also understand mesothelioma and what you are coping with. Your lawyer will work around medical appointments or treatments to try to make things less stressful for you. How long will a common law case take? The majority of common law claims for mesothelioma are settled out of court within 3–6 months of the claim being lodged. If your prognosis is poor, or you suddenly become very unwell, the process can be sped up to try to ensure that your common law claim is resolved in your lifetime. Only a few cases actually proceed to a court trial. What if I die before my claim is settled? Many people diagnosed with mesothelioma worry that their claim won't be finalised before they die. The largest component of compensation is usually the general damages. So long as you start a common law claim in your lifetime, then your entitlement to general damages is protected, and your estate would be able to continue with your claim if you die before your claim is finalised. In some circumstances, your family may also be entitled to dependency entitlements if you die because of the mesothelioma. Your lawyer will let you know if this applies to you and your family. How much does legal action cost? Legal costs are generally dependent on the amount of legal work required to resolve your case. Most lawyers who specialise in asbestos-related compensation claims offer a "no win, no fee" agreement. This means that the lawyers will only charge for legal services if they are successful in resolving your case. You are also entitled to claim a large portion of your legal costs from the defendants as part of your common law claim. The amount of costs awarded will depend on whether your case was resolved at mediation or at trial. Ask your lawyer for a costs agreement and get them to talk it through with you so you know what is involved. Be aware that even under a "no win, no fee" agreement, if you: start a claim but decide to cease the action, you will usually need to pay any legal costs up to that point proceed but lose the court case, you will not need to pay your lawyer, but you may still need to pay court costs for yourself and possibly for the defendant are successful, a significant portion of your compensation might be absorbed by any costs that the defendant doesn't have to pay. Statutory claims Some states and territories have special government compensation schemes for people who develop mesothelioma and other asbestos-related diseases. These schemes usually apply only if you have been exposed to asbestos during your employment. he authorities for Australia's asbestos compensation schemes are: ACT – WorkSafe ACT, call 02 6207 3000 or visit worksafe.act.gov.au NSW – Dust Diseases Authority, also known as icare dust diseases are, call 02 8223 6600 or visit icare.nsw.gov.au NT – NT WorkSafe, call 1800 019 115 or visit worksafe.nt.gov.au QLD – WorkCover Queensland, call 1300 362 128 or visit worksafe.qld.gov.au SA – ReturnToWorkSA, call 13 18 55 or visit rtwsa.com TAS – WorkSafe Tasmania, call 1300 366 322 or visit worksafe.tas.gov.au VIC – WorkSafe Victoria, call 1800 136 089 or visit worksafe.vic.gov.au WA – Your employer's insurer or if unknown, Insurance Commission of estern Australia, call 08 9264 3333 or visit icwa.wa.gov.au Commonwealth – Comcare, call 1300 366 979 or visit comcare.gov.au. Do I need a lawyer? It is possible for you and sometimes your dependants to lodge a statutory claim directly with the authority in your state or territory. However, most people with mesothelioma prefer to use a lawyer to arrange all their claims. The laws around Australia vary and can be complex. Some people may be entitled to bring a common law claim instead of, or in addition to, a statutory claim. It is vital to consult an expert asbestos lawyer before applying for statutory benefits to ensure you aren't excluded from also claiming common law compensation. Using an expert asbestos lawyer will allow you to access all your entitlements while concentrating on your health and spending time on the things that are important to you.

Kerajaan Majapahit dipimpin oleh seorang raja yang adil dan bijaksana bernama Brawijaya. Beliau mempunyai seorang putrid cantik jelita bernama Dyah Ayu Pusparani. Saat itu sudah saatnya Dyah Ayu mempunyai pedamping hidup. “Anakku, kau harus segera menentukan calon pendampingmu,” kata raja Brawijaya kepada putrinya. Dyah Ayu Pusparani tidak menanggapi ucapan ayahandanya, bahkan mengalihkan pembicaraan ke hal lain. Ayahandanya tetap mendesak terus agar Dyah Ayu Pusparani secara bijaksana segera memutuskan pilihan pendamping hidupnya. Akhirnya, Dyah Ayu Pusparani menyerahkan pilihan jodohnya kepada ayahandanya.

Untuk menentukan pilihan yang tepat sebagai suami Dyah Ayu Pusparani, Raja Brawijaya bingung. Untuk mengatasi masalah ini, Raja Brawijaya mengeluarkan sayembara. Sayembara segera diumumkan.”Barang siapa yang berhasil merentang busur Kyai Garudayaksa dan sanggup mengangkat gong Kyai Sekardelima, dialah yang berhak mempersunting Dyah Ayu Pusparani”.

Setelah sayembara tersebut diumumkan, raja dan pangeran dari berbagai negeri berdatangan untuk mengadu keberuntungan. Termasuk raja dan pangeran yang pernah ditolak lamarannya. Bahkan ada yang tangannya tiba-tiba patah karena memaksa diri merentang busur Kyai Garudayaksa. “Aduh, pinggangku patah,” teriak seorang pangeran yang mencoba mengangkat Gong Kyai Sekardelima yang besar dan berat itu.

Melihat tidak ada orang yang mampu memenangkan sayembara,

Raja Brawijaya memberi perintah kepada Mahapatih agar sayembara segera diberhentikan. “Tunggu! Aku belum mencoba!" teriak seorang pemuda berkepala seekor lembu. Raja Brawijaya meluluskan permintaan seorang pemuda itu. "Siapa namamu?" tanya Brawijaya. "Lembusura." jawab pemuda itu tegas. Ia segera merentang busur Kyai Garudayaksa dan berhasil. Tepuk tangan penonton membahana memenuhi alun-alun. Lembusura segera menghampiri Gong Sekardelima yang besar itu. Gong segera diangkatnya bagaikan mengangkat kapas. Sekali lagi tepuk tangan menggema tak henti-hentinya.

Di balik kegembiraan Lembusura itu, Dyah Ayu Puparani tampak sedih bahkan sampai meneteskan air mata. "Aku tidak mau bersuami orang yang berkepala binatang!" seru Dyah Ayu Pusparani, sambil menahan tangis. Raja Brawijaya mendengar ucapan putrinya itu langsung terkulai. Namun, Raja Brawijaya tidak mau martabat raja diremehkan. Seorang raja harus menepati janji. Apalagi dirinya dikenal sebagai seorang raja yang adil dan bijaksana. Maka mau tidak mau Dyah Ayu Pusparani harus menerima Lembusura sebagai suaminya.

Hari peresmian perkawinan antara Dyah Ayu Pusparani dengan Lembusura telah ditentukan. Semakin mendekati hari perhelatan itu, Dyah Ayu semakin resah gelisah. Ia tidak mau makn dan minum. Badannya semakin kurus, matanya cekung, rambutnya pun mulai rontok. Seorang Inang pengasuh menemani dengan setia. "Jika Tuan Puteri tidak mau dijodohkan dengan pemuda berkepala lembu itu, Tuan Puteri harus bisa mencari jalan keluar," kata Inang pengasuh. Mendengar ucapan Inang Pengasuh, Dyah Ayu Pusparani berniat meninggalkan istana. Namun, Inang Pengasuh mencegahnya.

Lantas mereka berembug untuk mencari jalan keluar yang terbaik. Inang Pengasuh mengusulkan agar Dyah Ayu Pusparani minta sebuah syarat yang harus dapat dipenuhi oleh Lembusura. Adapun syarat tersebut adalah Lembusura harus dapat membuatkan sebuah sumur di puncak gunung Kelud. Sumur tersebut diperuntukkan mandi berdua jika setelah selesai acara peresmian perkawinan. Dengan begitu pasti Lembusura mau menerimanya. "Aku akan segera menyampaikannya," kata Dyah Ayu Pusparani.

Lembusura menerima syarat yang diajukan Dyah Ayu Pusparani. Di pagi hari yang cerah, Lembusura segera menuju puncak gunung Kelud. Ia yakin dengan kesaktian yang dimilikinya permintaan calon istrinya dapat segera terpenuhi. Lembusura mulai menggali tanah dengan sepasang tanduknya. Tidak lama kemudian lubang galian sumur sudah cukup dalam. Lembusura sudah tidak tampak lagi dari bibir sumur. Dyah Ayu Pusparani semakin khawatir, karena jika Lembusura dapat menemukan air, itu berarti dirinya harus rela kawin dengan Lembusura. "Ananda mohon gagalkan usaha Lembusura membuat sumur," pinta Dyah Ayu Pusparani kepada ayahandanya. Raja Brawijaya berusaha menemukan cara yang terbaik.

Timbun batu-batu besar dan tanah!" perintah Raja Brawijaya

kepada para prajuritnya. Dalam sekejap Lembusura sudah terkubur di dalam sumur. Namun, karena sakti, dia masih bisa mengancam Brawijaya. "Brawijaya! Engkau raja yang licik! Meskipun ragaku terkubur hidup-hidup di dalam sumur, tetapi aku masih bisa membalas kelicikanmu! Setiap dua windu sekali, aku akan merusak seluruh wilayah kerajaanmu!" Setelah Lembusura mengucapkan kata-kata itu, suasana kembali tenang. Namun, Raja Brawijaya dan putrinya ketakutan.

Untuk mencegah kejadian yang tidak diinginkan, Raja Brawijaya memerintahkan kepada para prajuritnya untuk membangun tanggul pengaman. Para prajurit segera melaksanakan tugas. Tanggul pengaman segera berdiri kokoh. Kemudian tanggul itu diberi nama Gunung Pegat. Tetapi, pembalasan Lembusura datang juga. Jika gunung Kelud meletus, para penduduk menganggap akibat amukan Lembusura untuk membalas dendam kelicikan Raja Brawijaya.

Moral : Sebuah janji harus ditepati. Apabila kita tidak menepati janji, bisa jadi akan berakibat hal-hal yang buruk. Misalnya timbul rasa kecewa dan dendam. Apabila kita tidak bisa menepati janji, janganlah memberi janji kepada siapapun.
