Environmental Litigation / Toxic Torts
Belt Law Firm has vast experience handling various types of environmental and toxic tort cases. These cases focus on representation of clients who have been harmed in person or property by exposure to environmentally hazardous substances.
In today's industrial society, dangerous chemicals and other pollutants continue to damage the environment and pose risks to the health and safety of factory workers and people who live, work, and go to school near pollution sources. Underground gasoline tanks are known to leak toxic chemicals like benzene and MTBE into the groundwater, polluting sources of drinking water and threatening the health of adults and children alike. Hazardous waste is released, dumped or buried at factory sites, eventually making its way to streams, rivers, and lakes where people swim, fish, and own homes. Our attorneys have successfully handled litigation involving the companies and other entities responsible for these types of environmental hazards.
Our law firm has also handled many other types of environmental cases in areas such as:
- Groundwater Contamination
- Lead Poisoning (Lead Paint)
- Underground Storage Tanks
- Improperly Maintained Oil and Gas Wells
- Toxic Mold
- Other injuries caused by chemicals and toxins.
