Toxic Torts
Toxic conditions that give rise to legal cases can be chemical, physical, mechanical or biological in nature. Most toxic cases involve a chemical agent that causes human beings significant injury when they are somehow exposed to the toxin.
Exposure to the toxic agent can be direct contact between the person and the toxin; through toxins released into the groundwater, drinking water or air; toxins released by refineries and power plants, particularly during out of control fires; and toxins in vitamins, drugs and other substances which are ingested.
We have extensive experience representing individuals who have been injured by exposure to toxic and other dangerous substances, forms of energy, and devices, including asbestos, chemicals, hazardous waste, medical products and devices, pesticides, pharmaceutical products, radiation and electromagnetic energy, and tobacco. We represent clients in recovering money damages for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and punitive damages, where appropriate, individually or as part of a class action.
