Chromium Lawsuit: If You've Been Hurt by Chromium, We Can Help You Fight back and Win a Potential Settlement.

Chromium is a carcinogenic, tasteless, odorless chemical that is associated with industrial waste from metal plating operations and other manufacturing concerns. Chromium has been linked to cancer and other serious health problems through inhalation, ingestion, and contact. If you've been hurt by chromium contamination, you may be eligible to file a claim against the companies responsible for the chromium pollution and collect settlement compensation for your injuries, costs of medical monitoring, and reduced property value.

Do I have a CASE?

FREE Chromium Case Evaluator! Answer the following three questions and fill out the form below. A legal expert will review your claim within 24 hours.

Question 1: Were you exposed to chromium contamination?

The first step in determining if you have a chromium lawsuit is finding out if you were exposed to chromium. There are certain geographical areas that are known to have been contaminated by chromium. For example,  companies in New Jersey's Essex and Hudson Counties, and in other states, converted their chromium waste sites into landfill. Later, homes, parks, schools, shops, and playgrounds were built on and near the pollution. People using these polluted areas can be harmed medically and financially by the presence of this contamination. Chromium has also contaminated other land and drinking water supplies all across the country.

Question 2: Have you been injured by your chromium exposure?

There are several health issues that have been linked to chromium exposure. These include: cancer, kidney/liver disease, respiratory disease, allergies, skin irritation/contact dermatitis. If you have been diagnosed with any of these injuries, please note why you suspect that you have been injured by chromium.

Question 3: Has your property been devalued because it is on or near chromium-contaminated fill, or has your drinking water been polluted?

Chromium contamination does not just cause medical damage. It can cause financial damage as well. If your home is on or near property that has been contaminated by chromium, you as a homeowner must shoulder the financial burden of property damage, stigma damages related to the contamination, and reduced property value. If you feel your property has been devalued because of chromium contamination, please indicate why, including any air or water monitoring you have had done. If you are a well owner and your water has chromium in it, you may also seek to hold the polluting company responsible for the cleanup costs.

If you answered 'yes' to all of these questions, please fill out our simple Chromium form. A Client Relations Representative will contact you shortly to discuss your potential case. If you didn't answer yes to these questions, but would still like to discuss your potential case, feel free as well to fill out the form below or call us at (800) 476-6070 or email us at clientrelations@weitzlux.com
