A disease caused by the negligence or carelessness of companies can result in unnecessary medical bills, pain and suffering, and possibly even death. Toxic Tort laws protect injured people entitled to compensation for injuries, medical expenses, and medical care. Many virulent diseases can be work-related injuries in workers exposed to deadly toxins in their daily work environments. The harmful effects of toxic exposure can impact a person’s health today, and in some cases, many years later.
The cause of some diseases by unregulated use of toxic substances or improper disposal that can lead to tainted water supplies, soils, and the air we breathe. In toxic disease cases, the plaintiff will have to prove the company accused of negligence had prior knowledge of existing toxins in their workplace or surrounding neighborhoods and are guilty of ignoring the potential hazards and risks to their workers.
Overexposure to toxic materials such as pesticides, asbestos, benzene, chemicals, lead paint, dry cleaning fluids, and other chemicals can cause irreversible and sometimes deadly consequences. Toxic diseases such as Black Lung Disease can cause life-threatening cancers, stomach problems, liver damage, brain damage, kidney damage, congenital disabilities, and many other health issues.
Exposure to toxic chemicals and their effects are not usually isolated to one person. In many cases, a group of people will suffer from similar medical issues due to the proximity and length of their exposure.
Toxic disease injuries can cause physical injuries and trauma that can include financial damages, medical expenses, loss of wages, pain, suffering, and loss of quality of life. Family members also can suffer economic loss, mental anguish, and loss of companionship in caring for an injured family member.
Many personal injuries occur due to negligence on the part of one of the others involved. When another party’s negligence causes an accident, you have entitled compensation for medical expenses, pain, and suffering as well as other damages.
