Chemical Exposure Lawyer in Los Angeles

Employers are required law to post Safety Data Sheets and provide full disclosure about the hazardous materials found in the workplace. Chemical exposure and toxic exposure can take many forms. It can include skin illnesses or burns, respiratory conditions caused by breathing hazardous dust, gases and vapors, or poisoning; verifying abnormal levels of toxic substances in bodily fluids. Whatever the cause, being exposed to toxic substances can cause serious, lasting, and life-threatening injuries. In some cases, the results of exposure to toxic substances are immediate, while with others, it can take months or even years for the effects to surface.
