Toxic Torts

A toxic tort is a negligent act that causes innocent people to be exposed to dangerous chemicals. This can occur in many ways, from faulty pharmaceutical products to industrial pollution. Because errors like these can affect so many people, toxic tort claims are often filed by multiple people as mass claims.

The Most Common Types of Toxic Torts

There are a variety of things that can be included in toxic tort lawsuits, but the majority of the cases fall into one of these categories:

Pharmaceuticals: Even drugs that have been approved by the Food and Drug Administration can have toxic effects on individuals.

Consumer products: There are countless consumer products every year that cause injury or death to innocent individuals.  If a defective chemical contains dangerous chemicals such as mercury or lead, unsuspecting consumers can be badly harmed.

At-work exposure: Many toxic torts involve injury from toxic chemicals that were inhaled or touched while the victim was at work.

Manufacturers have an important responsibility to make sure their products are reasonably safe for the environment and for public use, while employers are expected to provide safe workspaces. When they do not, the same sometimes be found liable for injuries that result.
