Louisville Pesticide Exposure Attorneys
Pests and disease threaten the health and life of many types of vegetation. One way that farmers can protect their plants and gardens is by spraying pesticides and herbicides. While these chemicals can keep harmful infestations away, they can also be very dangerous for humans if the chemicals are inhaled or ingested. When property owners spray pesticides negligently, they can put tenants or surrounding neighbors at risk of serious health complications.
When property owners act negligently, you could suffer severe consequences. If you or someone you know has been sickened by non-occupational pesticide exposure, contact the Louisville personal injury attorneys of the Sampson Law Firm at 502-584-5050 to arrange for an initial consultation in which to discuss your potential case.
