Injury Causing Toxins

Our modern society has a much greater sense of responsibility for the cleanliness of our environment. Our legislation does a lot to protect the air we breathe, the water we drink and the land we cultivate. With all the focus paid these days to environmental consciousness, it is a sad reality that many people still suffer serious personal injuries and property damage as a result of toxic irresponsibility caused by either recent disregard for contemporary policies or mistakes made before some of our more recent green-friendly legislation. The toxic tort attorneys at the law firm of Bowles & Verna LLP in Walnut Creek, California, have experience obtaining compensation for injuries caused by irresponsible dispensation of toxic chemicals into the environment. While our home office is in California, we represent individual clients, homeowners’ associations and other business entities in toxic tort claims throughout the United States and the world.

How We Get Involved

Serious toxic torts are more uncommon compared to other personal injury claims like auto accidents and even airline accidents. Most toxic torts come from some kind of discovery made by a local government agency of hazardous waste deposits in common areas, and its impact on the health and welfare of the community. Another possibility is that a group of people in a certain geographic area find that they are all suffering from similar unusual symptoms or damages to their properties.

Complications Of Toxic Tort Cases

Toxic tort cases are also more complicated than other personal injury cases because of issues like:

  • Liability: Because chemicals do not carry fingerprints or other identifying information, it is sometimes difficult to discover definitively the source from which the toxins were dispensed into the environment.
  • Causation: Even if we can find the source of the toxins, it can be quite challenging to establish for the court that this chemical was the direct cause of certain injuries, because most injuries of this kind could have multiple contributing causes.
  • Damages: Toxic torts often involve property that is partially damaged and injuries that are difficult to diagnose. It is difficult to determine accurately the extent and costs associated with toxic tort damages.

We have been handling personal injury cases for more than 25 years, including successful toxic tort cases. We have the experience and skill to navigate these complicated issues and get you the compensation you deserve.
