ACandS Asbestos Trust Fund Claim Types & Payments

Introduction to ACandS Asbestos Trust

The ACandS Asbestos Trust emerged in 2008 following the confirmation of the ACandS Chapter 11 Joint Plan of Reorganization. Designed to address and settle valid asbestos personal injury claims, this trust has since played a pivotal role in ensuring claimants receive their due compensation in line with its Amended Trust Distribution Procedures.

ACandS Asbestos Trust Purpose and Functions

Established as a product of the ACandS Chapter 11 Joint Plan of Reorganization, the trust serves as a critical mechanism to process, validate, and eventually pay genuine asbestos-related personal injury claims. The trust operates in adherence to its Amended Trust Distribution Procedures, providing a transparent and streamlined process for claim resolution.

ACandS Asbestos Trust Claim Submission and Resolution

For individuals seeking compensation, the trust has detailed protocols to ensure an organized claim submission. Essential resources such as the claim form, submission guidelines, electronic filer agreement, and a thorough copy of the Trust Distribution Procedures can be sourced from the trust's online resource section.

It's important to note that claim submissions commenced on May 26, 2009. The trust recognized November 23, 2009, as the primary Claim Filing Date. Consequently, all claims presented between these dates are considered filed on the initial date, with their processing order determined by Section 5.1(a)(1) of the Trust Distribution Procedures.
