New Jersey Environmental Toxic Tort Lawsuits: NJ Superfund Sites
Fight Air and Water Pollution


Residents of New Jersey may be in danger of serious health issues arising if they live in the proximity of a Superfund site. Property may be devalued if it is impacted by water or air pollution commonly found in these Superfund areas.

If your health has been adversely affected or your property has been damaged, you can punish polluters by filing a lawsuit against them with the help of an environmental toxic tort attorney. Weitz & Luxenberg is nationally known for its groundbreaking work in MTBE and asbestos litigation, handling tens of thousands of lawsuits for clients across the country.

Superfund was enacted by the United States Congress on December 11, 1980 in response to the Love Canal disaster. This law created a tax on petroleum and chemical industries and provided broad federal authority to respond directly to releases or threatened releases of hazardous substances that may endanger public health or the environment. Over five years, $1.6 billion was collected, and the tax went to a trust fund for cleaning up abandoned or uncontrolled hazardous waste sites.

Inclusion of a site on the NPL does not in itself require potentially liable parties to initiate action to cleanup the site, nor does it assign liability to any person. The NPL serves primarily informational purposes, identifying for the States and the public those sites or other releases that appear to warrant remedial actions.

The EPA lists 1,604 Superfund sites as of May 2005.

Don't let Superfund polluters get away with harming New Jersey's natural resources and your health. Contact the environmental toxic tort lawyers of Weitz & Luxenberg today to learn more about your legal choices. You can get started by filling out this short form. Your legal claim will be reviewed within one day. To refer a friend or loved one to Weitz & Luxenberg, click here.
