The long history of using PFAS in the manufacturing of common household and fire industrial products, combined with the chemical’s persistence and accumulation, means most of us have suffered exposure. However, high levels of PFAS in the human body can lead to severe health issues.

If you developed certain illnesses because of PFAS exposure, you may be eligible to file a PFAS lawsuit and seek compensation for your losses and medical expenses. Our office is offering free case reviews for those impacted by water contamination.

We have also written more on what PFAS stands for, what the risks are, and what options you may have if you have been affected.

🌍🌿 World Environment Day Alert! 🌿🌍

Today, as we celebrate , let's shine a light on the importance of protecting the one and only planet we live on. 🌱💧

For years, some companies have fallen short in their environmental responsibilities. One glaring issue is the contamination from PFAS and PFOS chemicals, often dubbed "forever chemicals" due to their persistence in the environment and our bodies. These toxic substances have been linked to serious health issues, including cancer, liver damage, and developmental problems in children. 🛑⚠️

It's time to think about the consequences of our actions and strive for a change. Let's hold corporations accountable and push for stricter regulations to ensure a healthier, greener future. 🌳🌏

Although AFFF is highly effective in fighting different types of fires, they have become a source of concern due to their large amount of PFAS chemicals which have been tied to certain cancers and environmental contamination.

Xcel Energy, a prominent utility company in the area, has publicly acknowledged its potential involvement in sparking the devastating Smokehouse Creek fire. Although this doesn't mean they are "at fault," this public statement may have created certain avenues for legal action for those affected by the calamity, underscoring the significant role of attorneys in managing the intricacies of such complex and emotionally charged circumstances.

Hiring an attorney doesn’t prevent a person from filing a claim with their insurance company, as most property owners believe that their fire insurance company will do right by them after a devastating emergency. Unfortunately, getting what you are fully entitled to is not always the case.

To ensure all benefits are received, an experienced attorney can pursue a full range of available damages related to an incident compared to typical fair market value assessment offer to settle a claim from an insurance adjuster. In addition, insurance claims do not cover damages like pain and suffering from losing everything you own or feeling the loss of losing your livelihood.

In a recent blog, we delved into the causes of massive wildfires, their impacts on affected communities, prevention strategies, and the legal recourse available to those affected.
