LEAD PAINT POISONING
Why retain a lawyer for a lead paint lawsuit?

Some of the lead that enters a body comes from breathing in paint dust or chemicals that contain lead. Once this lead gets into your lungs, it goes quickly to other parts of the body in your blood.

You may swallow lead by eating food and drinking liquids that contain it. Most of the lead that enters your body comes through swallowing, even though very little of the amount you swallow actually enters your blood and other parts of your body. Accidental ingestion of lead may also occur through skin contamination while eating, drinking, smoking, or applying cosmetics (including lip balm).

In general, if adults and children swallow the same amount of lead, a bigger proportion of the amount swallowed will enter the blood in children than in adults. About 99% of the amount of lead taken into the body of an adult will leave in human waste within a couple of weeks, but only about 32% of the lead taken into the body of a child will exit this way. Under conditions of continued exposure, not all the lead that enters the body will be eliminated, and this may result in accumulation of lead in body tissues, notably bone.

Act now! If you suspect you or your children have ingested lead, it is important to discuss your situation with a doctor, who can confirm that lead poisoning has occurred. If the tests are positive, a lawyer at our firm will provide a free consultation to review the viability of a lead paint lawsuit. Litigation may be the only way to receive monetary damages to cover such expenses as medical and health care bills, lost or diminished wages, and financial compensation to family in the case of death. Your individual state's law may limit your time to bring a legal claim to protect your rights. You need to have your lead paint claim evaluated immediately!
