Steps for filing a Federal-Mogul trust claim
- Get a doctor's written diagnosis, supported by an exam or pathology report.
- Collect documents showing the person worked around or with company products, like sales, construction, or job records.
- The Delaware Claims Processing Facility (DCPF) handles claims made to the Federal-Mogul trust, and it runs Trust Online, the trust's own online filing system. Submit the claim on the trust's own form, attaching those records.
- File at the same time with every other trust in the work history, since a single trust covers only part of a claim.
