Got Toxic Mold? Do You Have Enough for a Lawsuit?<\/p><\/div>\n

Toxic mold lawsuits have been filed against builders and contractors, employers, government agencies and even automakers. Does your toxic mold problem rise to the level of legal action? Our New Jersey mold removal experts<\/a> share important information about toxic mold litigation<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Making a Case<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u2022 Toxic mold litigation is a specialized field. Your first step should be consulting an attorney who is qualified in this area.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Establishing the presence of toxic mold<\/a> isn’t enough. There has to be evidence regarding the type of mold, location and cause of the infestation and whether or not spores were able to become airborne.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Document every event and communication involving the mold problem, including conversations with a\u00a0landlord and interaction with cleaning services.<\/p>\n

Responsibility of Landlords<\/strong><\/p>\n

Landlord liability often hinges on the issue of notice.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Constructive notice occurs when a “reasonable person” is in possession of facts that would lead to certain knowledge.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Actual notice is when a landlord has direct knowledge of a situation through a tenant, repair person or their own investigation.<\/p>\n

Damages<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u2022 Property damage can include cost of remediation, loss of personal property and reduction in real estate value, while personal damage arises from physical ailments such as bronchitis, memory loss<\/a> or immune system disorders.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Emotional distress, which involves the psychological effects of toxic mold exposure,\u00a0is more difficult to determine.<\/p>\n
