Get help finding the Right Toxic Tort Lawyer for your case
A toxic tort is a personal injury caused by contact with lead paint, toxic mold, a faulty medical device, hazardous medication or any other toxic substance. The Occupational Health and Safety Act (OHSA) along with other federal laws are designed to protect the environment and citizens from unsafe conditions and toxic substances at work. When a product, the environment you live in or a corporation is negligent with toxic chemicals and causes injury, a class action or toxic tort lawsuit can be brought against those responsible for the injuries.
Those who live near chemical manufacturing plants and disposal sites, employees who are exposed to chemicals at work and consumers who use products at home could be victims of toxic tort. Most toxic tort cases arise from injuries suffered due to negligence related to chemical exposures, lead poisoning, mold contamination, benzene, asbestos or chemical contamination. Injuries that have been a result of toxic torts include brain damage, different types of cancer, birth defects and respiratory diseases, among others. Toxic tort victims are entitled to seek monetary damages for pain and suffering, medical expenses, and lost wages.
The effects of toxic substance exposure are typically discovered after several years and victims often need to prove that their injury or illness was a result of a particular substance or device. A class action lawsuit or toxic tort case can be initiated by one person or a small group of people on behalf of hundreds or even thousands of others who have suffered similar injuries. Class action lawyers are experienced in representing toxic torts that include false advertising, defective products, toxic fumes inhaled at work, hazardous pharmaceutical products and chemical spills.
