YOUR GUIDING LIGHT

Toxic tort cases are complex, and it’s often difficult to build an argument for a case without an experienced toxic tort lawyer on your side. Because the effects of chemical injury or toxic exposure can take months or even years to appear, establishing — and proving — causation isn’t easy. In fact, it’s often very difficult to link a health effect to a specific substance. That’s why it’s important to protect yourself with a team of toxic tort lawyers experienced at facing all manner of chemical injury claims.

COMMITTED TO YOUR CASE

Because chemical exposure often harms a large number of people, it’s not uncommon for toxic tort claims to become class action or mass tort lawsuits. At MMRBH, our lawyers have a wealth of experience dealing with mass tort and class action lawsuits, and are committed to taking your case to the next level as is needed to get you the compensation you deserve — and prevent harm from happening to anyone else.

The Most Common Types of Toxic Tort Claims

Toxic Exposure on the Job

Toxic Exposure in Consumer Products

Toxic Mold Exposure in the Home

It’s common for industrial workers to be around harmful chemicals every day — from those working in chemical plants and manufacturing warehouses to oilfield workers, construction & insulation workers, shipyard & railroad employees and more. If you’ve been exposed to a toxic substance on the job, make sure you contact a toxic tort litigation specialist. We’ll be able to tell you if you have a case.

Unfortunately, some consumer products are made with substances that we later find out are not fit for handling by the public. Famous products liability toxic tort cases include the Monsanto Roundup Cancer lawsuit, the Asbestos Mesothelioma lawsuit and the Paraquat Pesticide Parkinson’s Disease lawsuit. If you have suffered a chemical injury due to a consumer-facing product, you may be entitled to compensation. Reach out to a toxic tort lawyer at MMRBH to discuss the specifics of your case.

Toxic black mold is not uncommon in Louisiana, due to our humid climate and significant rainfall. If you find mold in your home, there may be a case against the builders, landlords or construction companies responsible for the home if faulty or defective design/construction are suspected.
