Working to Protect Your Rights, Your Loved Ones, and Your Environment

The release, spill, or leak of toxic chemicals into the workplace or the environment can cause serious illness, disease, or death. It can also cause serious ground water, soil, and air contamination. Long-term exposure to hazardous chemicals can have serious health effects.

Workers deserve a safe work environment. If you or your loved one has been diagnosed with a disease, illness, or condition related to occupational exposure to chemicals, we may be able to help you get compensation through a "toxic tort."

Dangerous Exposure to Toxic Chemicals

Our firm handles toxic torts involving injuries resulting from toxic exposure to many types of chemicals or products, such as:

• Asbestos
• Mercury
• Benzene
• Styrene
• Petroleum products
• Petrochemicals
• Hazardous materials (Hazmat)

Some of the most common toxic tort claims in North Carolina involve asbestos, which has caused mesothelioma, lung cancer, asbestosis, and other serious health conditions. Michael W. Patrick is a strong advocate for people suffering from asbestos-related diseases, and he has helped pioneer asbestos litigation in North Carolina.

Exposure to other toxic or poisonous chemicals can result in different types of cancer, kidney disease, organ failure, skin disease, liver disease, and other permanent health conditions or diseases. If exposure to toxic chemicals resulted in one of these serious diseases or another serious health problem, we can help.
