San Diego, Palm Springs & San Bernardino California Toxic Tort Lawyer Warns That Everyone is Vulnerable to Toxic Tort Exposure

Toxic tort law cases are generally just massive personal injury cases in which the injury is caused by exposure to a toxic substance or chemical and generally in which scores, hundreds or thousands are injured. Sources of toxic substances include pharmaceuticals, consumer products, and substances found in the home, the air, the water, the soil and elsewhere in our environment.

Once you know that, you can see how we are all so vulnerable to toxic exposure. It has come to the point where almost all of us are or know someone else who has been exposed to things like asbestos, dangerous drugs, contamination of our water supply, or toxic dumping.

Whether you live in the mountains in Big Bear or Idyllwild, in Carlsbad, OceansideChula Vista or El Cajon in San Diego, in Newport Beach, Huntington Beach, Anaheim, El Toro or Dana Point in Orange County, near Fullerton, Fontana, Ontario or Rancho Cucamonga in the Inland Empire, or anywhere from Palm Springs to Palm Desert, Coachella, Yucca Valley, Joshua Tree or Thermal in the Coachella Valley, or Brawley or El Centro in the Imperial Valley you may have been exposed to toxic chemicals.

In the news nearly every day are stories of mass torts involving dangerous chemicals in baby formula, or pet food, ice cream bars, milk, candy, baby cereal or cheese. Recently, there have been dangerous products coming out of China and Mexico, but fertilizer use in agriculture in the U.S. and the raising of other farm animals on a massive scale is an equally dangerous condition for the environment. It may sound funny, but gas emissions from cows are a real barrier to solving global warming and emerging countries like China with a growing desire for meat are adding to that problem.

Some toxic torts are difficult to pin the blame on any one defendant. Mercury in fish is an example. It is abundant. It is toxic. And it has far too many causes over far too many years to now blame one company or one country even over another. However, with new rules such as the new Country of Origin labeling law in states like California, in the future it may be possible to trace foodborne illnesses to certain farms and distributors.

In agricultural areas of California including Orange County, Central California, the Central Coast, San Diego County and the Coachella Valley, toxic tort exposure is a real concern. Sadly, many of the workers most likely to be exposed to such chemicals have the least exposure to quality medical attention or lawyers.

As years go by, we will find that many of the common items we encounter on a daily basis and take for granted are exposing us to serious danger. Add to that, one-time exposures by tainted food or milk, longer term exposures when the air, water or soil are contaminated and it is no wonder we fight so much disease and sickness in our lives.
