Asbestos trust funds are set up by companies that once made or used asbestos, to pay claims from people who got sick from exposure. These funds hold money set aside through bankruptcy or legal settlements, and they try to distribute it fairly among victims with diseases like mesothelioma. It can be a slow, frustrating process to apply, and payouts often depend on how much money is left in the fund.
