Are You the Victim of an Irresponsible Corporation?

Toxic tort litigation encompasses the gamut of product liability claims for chemical and other substance poisonings. The irresponsible corporations involved have been targeted for civil liability by their victims. Because of the nature of chemical and substance mishaps and the long latency periods associated with many poisonings, many people are affected long before the nature and cause has been discovered. As a result, the law has been forced to develop methods for dealing with mass tort litigation, including class action suits and multi-district litigation.

Here are some examples of toxic tort claims:

  • Lead paint claims- generally involving brain damage sustained by infants as a result of ingesting lead paint
  • Asbestos litigation- generally involving mesothelioma, lung cancer, restrictive lung disease and asbestosis sustained by workers (and their families exposed to the dust on clothing) in trades or the military when they were exposed to products containing asbestos
  • Dry cleaning solvents - claims involving brain or major organ damage caused by these chemicals used in the dry cleaning process
  • Pesticides such as dioxin and DDT - generally involving birth injuries and birth defects
  • Electro-magnetic fields generated by utility wires or major appliances
  • Toxic landfill waste - leukemia, and other chemically caused conditions that have developed due to irresponsible disposal of toxic waste
  • Fire-retardant building materials, furniture and fire extinguishers
  • Miscellaneous common industrial chemicals including benzene, and PCBs
  • Heavy metal and other chemical poisoning

Generally there are three grounds for a law suit in toxic tort litigation: Negligence, breach of warranty and strict product liability. If you are the victim of an irresponsible corporation let the toxic tort litigation attorneys at Charlip Law Group, LC help you get the compensation you deserve.
