Connecticut Lead Poisoning Lawyers

connecticut-lead-poisoning-attorneys

Most toxic metal poisoning is accidental – often consumed by small children if they try to taste old paint chips, or by adults who inhale dust from paint that contains lead, lead has also been found in high concentrations in children’s toys, water supplies, lead-glazed ceramics and cosmetics just to name a few.

Medical records indicate that even small amounts of lead entering your bloodstream can cause serious illnesses, while prolonged exposure to lead poisoning can lead to lower IQs and developmental disabilities – especially in children. In many adult cases, it can damage our blood-forming, nervous, urinary, and reproductive systems to a point that it is life-threatening.

If you or a loved one suspects they have been exposed to lead poisoning (or have already been diagnosed), it is a good idea to contact an experienced Connecticut attorney, to help determine if you have a case for damages.

Toxic Metal Poisoning Prevention Tips

While treatment is available for those diagnosed with lead poisoning, some simple precautions can help prevent it – some of these include:

For Children:

  • Wash dust from hands, feet, toys and bottles after playtime, eating and before bedtime
  • Fix peeling paint so that children are not tempted to taste it
  • Serve foods that have calcium, iron and vitamin C
  • Keep children out of renovation and building areas

 

For Adults:

  • Keep lead out of water by letting the tap run for a minute before drinking it
  • Use lead-free dishes
  • Wash hands of dust before eating and sleeping
  • Keep dust to a minimum by mopping floors regularly and wiping window sills with a damp cloth

 

By using these examples, you can help to reduce the chances of inhaling or consuming lead or objects that may contain lead or traces of it.
