Lead Poisoning

 

“I recognize the extraordinary efforts of the staff of SILBERSTEIN, AWAD, & MIKLOS, P.C., in persistently and diligently pursuing and prosecuting this matter throughout the years.”
— G.W.

 

Children growing up in apartment buildings and homes built before 1960 are often faced with the danger of lead poisoning due to paint toxicity.

 

Even though walls may have been painted many times over the years, lead paint remains; and when the paint chips, or dust is created, young children can be exposed to lead, which may result in poisoning and brain injury.

 

Our firm was very successful in a Bronx County trial in obtaining a verdict of over $5 million for a child who suffered lead poisoning as a result of the landlord's negligence in abating the building's lead paint.

 

If you suspect that your child may be exposed to lead paint, or you have seen your child either eating the chips or inhaling the dust, you should have the level of lead in your child's blood tested.

 

If you need legal representation, please consider consulting with our lead poison attorneys as soon as possible because your child's health and brain are at risk - and because early investigation is necessary to establish a legal case. We can meet with you at your home, photograph and view the apartment or house and, if appropriate, we can contact environmental specialists that will come in to test and preserve the evidence of poisonous lead paint.
