Have You Been Sick From Exhaust Fumes And Toxins From Poor Ventilation At Work? Get A Lawyer Fast

Blog

If you were working in an office building with a shop where you were inhaling toxic fumes because of poor ventilation and you now have some severe medical complications, you want to talk with a lawyer. It's the responsibility of your employer to provide a safe and healthy workspace, and if your health has been jeopardized you need compensation.

You may not want to give this information to your employer immediately when you find out what has been making you ill. Instead, your lawyer may need to gather evidence. Work fast and do the following.

Gather Needed Office and Medical Evidence

Your medical professional will provide the diagnosis with blood tests and other screenings to show that you have been exposed to toxins. This will also include a diagnosis of health damage that has occurred, and what the long term affects of this could be on your overall health.

From there your lawyer will want to get evidence for your case. Evidence for this would include:

  • Air screening machine set up in office
  • Lawyer ordered air screening in the building
  • Proof of the toxins overflowing into your office

Your lawyer will want strong evidence that the illnesses you've been dealing with is from the fumes and toxins, so there are no complications proving the case.

Find an Injury Lawyer for the Case

You need an injury lawyer that is willing to do the investigative work to get you compensation for the medical condition you've been dealing with. Ask the lawyer, for example Bangel, Bangel & Bangel, about:

  • Past injury cases with toxic substances
  • Cost and payment requirements
  • Case load and availability

The lawyer will look at the evidence and data that you have to start and determine if they want to take your case, and if they think you have a strong enough case to hold up for a settlement.

When your lawyer approaches your employer they may want to settle out of court, and they may offer you a settlement package right away. This will include the costs of lost wages when you were out sick, the medical bills you've acquired, and compensation for potential problems you may have down the road.

It doesn't matter how much you enjoy working at your place of employment, you never know how your employer will treat you when you have a potential lawsuit. Get a lawyer before you approach them about the problems you have, and then get your case started as quickly as you can.
