If the criteria were not met or there are certain details that were willfully overlooked, it is possible that one could have a good case against the authorities concerned. But again, many of the cases filed in the court do not even reach the actual trial. Some parties decide at the very early stages of filing the case to agree for settlement. This would be very convenient for both parties considering that the settlement will only be settled once the defendant/s and the prosecution arrive at a single contract.
To make the settlement work, the victim must file a case through a qualified asbestos attorney. The latter knows the rules well and could help a great deal in maximizing the interest of the victim or victims to obtain a higher chance of increasing a fair settlement.
During the settlement, the victim must prove and convince the other party that he or she will win. If not, then the other party won't have any interest and may even settle for a long trial where he is sure to win. Nonetheless, personal injury attorneys know other techniques that could make the most out of the case, regardless if he stands by the defendant's or victim's side. 
Also, it must be proven that the defendant showed enough negligence that lead to unwanted circumstances, such as that of asbestosis or mesothelioma and sometimes even death. Further, damages caused by the asbestos-related incidences must be calculated and thus be compensated by the amount of the settlement.
The compensation a victim will receive varies depending on certain factors including the laws in the state where the case was filed, the losses which may have direct or indirect relation to asbestos exposure, the types of injuries, the people responsible, the party's credibility, the value of the verdict, the manner by which the case was presented, the status of the attorneys and many others. The amount vary anywhere from several thousand dollars to several million. The latter happens more frequently with group cases where there are lots of victims involved.
If you want to file your case related to asbestos, it is best that you consult a professional first and seek legal advice; he would give you better perspectives on the case and will help you arrive with a fair settlement.
