Meso Lawyer PA has announced a September 2026 update to its mesothelioma lawyer informational resources, with materials addressing Pennsylvania asbestos litigation, filing procedures, and attorney credentials. The Philadelphia-based legal practice updated the materials to provide current information about the civil claim process for people diagnosed with asbestos-related disease and their families.
The updated material addresses how mesothelioma claims may proceed through civil litigation and asbestos bankruptcy trust systems in Pennsylvania. Meso Lawyer PA publishes information about these processes as part of the legal practice of Michael C. Schafle, Esq., founding partner of Green & Schafle, LLC.

“The September review focused on keeping the published material aligned with the procedures, credentials, and legal sources associated with the practice,” said Michael C. Schafle, Esq., founding partner of Green & Schafle, LLC. “The firm continues to review its mesothelioma materials as statutes, court procedures, and publicly available legal information develop.”
Mesothelioma is associated with exposure to asbestos, a material historically used in industrial, construction, manufacturing, transportation, and other occupational settings. Legal claims involving an asbestos-related diagnosis can require examination of employment history, product identification, exposure evidence, medical documentation, and the parties potentially responsible for the exposure.
Pennsylvania law establishes filing periods for personal injury and wrongful death actions. Determining an applicable deadline depends on the facts and legal circumstances of an individual matter, including the type of claim involved and relevant dates. The updated Meso Lawyer PA material discusses filing considerations without presenting general information as a substitute for legal advice.
Asbestos litigation can involve several sources of information collected over different periods. Attorneys may review employment records, Social Security records, union information, medical files, deposition testimony, product records, and documentation concerning former industrial facilities. Historical exposure investigations can also involve identifying manufacturers, suppliers, contractors, premises owners, or other entities connected with asbestos-containing materials.
Some asbestos-related matters also involve bankruptcy trusts established by companies that previously manufactured or distributed asbestos-containing products. Trust claims and civil lawsuits operate under different procedures, and a particular matter may involve one process or a combination of processes. The legal and factual requirements depend on the responsible entities, available evidence, and applicable claim rules.
Schafle is admitted to practice in Pennsylvania and New Jersey and has practiced law since his Pennsylvania admission in 2005. His practice includes complex personal injury litigation, toxic tort matters, asbestos litigation, defective-product cases, and other civil claims. Additional professional and educational information is available through the attorney profile maintained by the practice.
Meso Lawyer PA operates from the Philadelphia office of Green & Schafle, LLC. The practice identifies Schafle as counsel in matters associated with Philadelphia asbestos litigation and provides information concerning mesothelioma claims arising from occupational and other forms of asbestos exposure in Pennsylvania.
Philadelphia has a longstanding connection to asbestos litigation because claims involving industrial workplaces, construction activity, transportation operations, manufacturing facilities, and other sources have been addressed through the local court system. The Meso Lawyer PA update places that litigation context within broader Pennsylvania information rather than limiting its materials to a single municipality or workplace.
The practice also publishes material explaining how an asbestos case can develop after an initial review. That process can include investigation of possible exposure sources, collection of medical and employment records, identification of potentially responsible parties, assessment of trust eligibility, and preparation of court filings when litigation is appropriate. Each matter proceeds according to its own evidence and procedural requirements.
The September 2026 review also addresses attorney identification and professional credentials. Meso Lawyer PA identifies Schafle by name, firm affiliation, office address, and Pennsylvania bar information, allowing published biographical information to be compared with public professional records.
Green & Schafle, LLC was co-founded by Schafle and maintains a civil litigation practice in Philadelphia. The firm publishes separate information concerning asbestos and mesothelioma matters through its legal resources, along with information about other areas of civil litigation handled by its attorneys.

The September update continues the practice’s publication of Pennsylvania mesothelioma information while identifying the attorney and law firm responsible for the material.
