Chemical exposure can happen suddenly when a pipe bursts in a plant or slowly when chemicals seep into groundwater and threaten the water supply. Our attorneys understand the science and law of chemical exposure.

  • At fertilizer plants, rubber plants, and other manufacturing sites where chemicals are used, a burst pipe, broken flange, or defective valve can expose workers, neighbors or the public to toxic chemicals.
  • On the highway, a tanker truck accident can expose the driver, others involved in the accident, and the surrounding land to toxic chemicals.
  • When chemicals are released into the environment for any reason (e.g. accident or equipment failure), there is a danger of groundwater contamination and the need for groundwater remediation.

If you or a loved one has been injured because of chemical exposure, talk to the toxic exposure attorneys at the Bohrer Law Firm about your case.

If you have suffered an injury because of chemical exposure at work, or if a family member has died in a toxic substance accident, tell us about it. Our personal injury litigation lawyers can help you understand the laws and your rights. You do not have to face a big manufacturing company alone.
