With so many chemicals on the market, potential toxicity due to exposure is not as uncommon as one might think.
Toxic chemical exposure may occur in the workplace, but not always. Those who work or live near chemical plants, refineries and gas stations may be at an elevated risk.Toxic chemical exposure is different than other types of accidents. Typically a lawsuit is filed as soon as the injuries you suffered are apparent. However, after a toxic chemical exposure, injuries may take months, years, or even decades to develop. Because of the length of time it may take for symptoms to appear, multiple medical opinions on the causes of illness in toxic exposure cases may be necessary. Defendants in toxic chemical exposure lawsuits are typically well-funded corporations, and have access to specialists trained in toxicology, pharmacology, chemistry, oncology, neurology, and other medical professionals.
