You have a right to seek counsel with an environmental lawyer for contamination in Pompton Lakes, NJ
A Weitz & Luxenberg lawyer can help you fight for your right to a clean environment in Pompton Lakes.
According to the government's Agency for Toxic Substances & Disease Registry, residents who drank water from contaminated private wells in Pompton Lakes, New Jersey were chronically exposed to contaminants in those wells.
The actual length of exposure to those contaminants depends on when the off-site groundwater became contaminated, which is unknown at this time. Ingestion exposures ceased in 1985, when private well numbers one and seven were connected to the municipal water supply.
Many of the dangerous solvents found will persist for long periods of time in groundwater, especially trichloroethylene (TCE) and tetrachloroethylene (PCE). Many people believe Dupont should be held accountable for the contaminated groundwater in the Pompton Lakes community.
Weitz & Luxenberg is a forerunner in the legal fight against such environmental polluters. The firm recently secured a landmark settlement against some of the country's biggest oil companies for contaminating public drinking water supplies around the country. Recently, most of defendant oil companies agreed to pay $423 million to settle suits involving the contamination of 153 public water systems nationally.
