Lead Poisoning Litigation
Lead poisoning is one of the most common health problems for American children today and, according to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention, it is entirely preventable. Motley Rice has a team of lawyers who represent victims of childhood lead poisoning. We work with leading national researchers, including geochemists, psychiatrists, toxicologists, pediatric neurologists and neuropsychiatrists, to help our clients.
Lead is absorbed into the bodies of small children more easily than adults. It gets in through ingestion of paint chips, dust, soil, and other means. Ingestion of lead has its most serious effects in children who are six years old or under, whose brains are in developmental stages. Studies show that lead, even at low levels, is neurotoxic and can cause permanent brain damage.
