Toxic Torts

Our Toxic Tort practice includes attorneys experienced in a wide variety of litigation. We handle cases involving alleged carcinogens and a host of other toxic fibers, chemicals and drugs. We represent manufacturers of industrial paints and solvents, pesticides, silica flour and asbestos-containing products. We represent landlords in lead poisoning cases and manufacturers of products that incorporate or produce toxic agents.

We have successfully defended against "junk science" claims and have also defeated such theories by appropriate pre-trial motions. We also have experience defending novel theories of damages, including chemically induced AIDS, fear of contracting cancer and recoveries sought as a result of allegedly improper medical monitoring.
