Lead Paint Poisoning
Lead is a heavy metal used in various household products. Lead is commonly found in paint used to cover walls and other surfaces. Every day, we are exposed to lead and other toxic substances. Minimal exposure is often harmless but continuous exposure over time can lead to severe health concerns. Failure of property owners to address the issue of toxic levels of lead and other substances on their premises can result in severe harm to tenants and guests. If this happens, the property owner may be liable for the damages.
