Toxic Substances
 

Lawsuits that arise against landowners, responsible manufactures and sellers of products and materials that cause asbestosis, mesothelioma, silicosis and lead poisoning are called toxic substances and environmental contamination claims. These claims can be very complex in nature and require legal representation from an attorney that has extensive experience in such cases.

The lawyers of 1800lawyers.com also represent employees of private companies as well as governmental entities and municipalities for claims of work–related toxic exposures that result in personal injuries and sometimes even death. These cases can involve a complex coordination of workers compensation benefits and product liability and are often brought in the form of class action or mass group litigation.

Another source of claims comes from exposure to lead-based paint commonly used in industry, on equipment or in playgrounds and parks. These claims too are commonly brought as mass group litigation.
