Lead paint exposure has the potential to cause a serious amount of harm to humans. Victims of this phenomenon will experience a number of physical and psychological effects. Children who are overexposed to lead are particularly susceptible to injury and disability. Their physical and mental development can be severely hindered by lead poisoning, causing them to experience anything from learning disabilities to seizures.
If your child has suffered lead poisoning complications, then you have the right to take legal action against the party or parties responsible for this tragedy. Child lead paint poisoning lawyer Jeffrey Killino is determined to help his clients attain the justice they deserve in such a situation. Call him today at 877-875-2927 to learn more about his services.
How Children Are Exposed to Lead Paint
Youth participating in any of the following activities may be at risk for lead poisoning:
- Hobbies involving lead paint, such as making stained-glass windows
- Drinking water that may have been exposed to lead paint, especially in older houses
- Touching lead paint around the home (again, older homes) and sticking their hands in their mouths
- Living in an older house with lead paint on the interior
- Playing with older toys coated in lead paint
Children under the age of six may be at serious risk due to their current stages of development. They also tend to be more curious than those of other ages, and will put their hands and fingers into their mouths more frequently.
Jeffrey Killino will not hesitate to take on large corporations that are trying to cut corners and save money by using lead paint on their toys or failing to notify buyers of this risk. In 2007, he confronted and sued children’s toy manufacturer Mattel in an effort to force them to perform lead testing on their products. Do not hesitate to call him if your child has suffered injury or disability from lead-containing children’s products.
