Weitz & Luxenberg: A Mercury Pollution Lawyer for You.

If you've been exposed to mercury pollution, you need a lawyer who can help you fight back against industrial polluters.

Do I have a CASE?

Question 1: Were you exposed to mercury?

In order for us to file a successful mercury claim on your behalf, you must have been exposed to mercury. Mercury is a toxic industrial pollutant, and the single greatest source of mercury pollution is from coal-fired power plants. Metal smelting, landfills, and municipal waste incineration can also release mercury into the environment.

Question 2: Did mercury affect your air supply, water supply, or your health?

Mercury pollution can damage the environment, the food chain, and your health. Exposure to mercury can cause brain damage, liver damage, mercury poisoning, minamata disease, and death.

Question 3: Was the mercury contamination caused by negligence?

Companies that produce hazardous substances like mercury must do so in a way that won't harm a community's air, water, or health. If a company is releasing mercury into the environment, the company may be negligent, and municipalities or individuals may be able to sue them for the costs of mercury cleanup.
