Holding Negligent Landlords Accountable In Lead Poisoning Cases

The symptoms of lead poisoning can be very subtle and could be easily attributable to other things. Stomach pain, headaches, lack of appetite, mood swings, anemia and many other symptoms can all indicate lead poisoning. Left undiagnosed, lead poisoning can result in brain damage, organ damage, central nervous system impairments and even death.

Landlords have an obligation to inform potential renters about the presence of lead paint and to ensure a lead-free environment when a child under 7 years of age is likely to be living there. If they are negligent in this responsibility or deliberately fail to disclose the potential hazard, they can be held liable for damages. Our premises accident attorneys will seek compensation on your behalf and work to ensure that all negligent parties are held accountable.
