You're question is a bit to vague for a specific answer. Generally, money inherited is treated the same regardless of whether it came from a lawsuit or an investment by the deceased. If the suit is still pending at the death of the individual, then the attorney for the asbestos related disease may have to amend the case to include either a Survival Action for the losses of the injured person during their lifetime, or a Wrongful Death Action for the losses of his or her family. Generally, Survival Action money becomes an asset of the estate of the deceased, and Wrongful Death Action money is paid directly to the family or dependants. Any qualified estate planning lawyer, such as one from the American Academy of Estate Planning Attorney (www.aaepa.com) can assist you with such questions.My practice is in Pittsburgh as The Estate Planning Centers at The Coulter Law Offices LLC. Please remember that this is a general discussion only, and is not intended as legal advice upon which anyone should rely. Moreover, I'm typing this reply off of the top of my head as a courtesy, not as a researched answer to your situation. You should consult with a lawyer or appropriate professional regarding you own specific facts and circumstances. Mark T. Coulter, J.D.

Why would school officials spend money to remove asbestos from school buildings?

The reason that school officials would spend money to remove asbestos from school buildings is because asbestos is incredibly dangerous if inhaled. At one time, it was great as a fire preventor, but now it's been linked to all sorts of cancers and is considered incredibily toxic and deadly to humans. Another reason for removal and abatement is that, when disturbed, asbestos causes health problems. Any remodeling of an area has to include remediation of asbestos.
