Toxic Exposure and Chemical Injuries Lawyer

Toxic Exposure Attorney in Los Angeles

 Being harmed by harmful chemicals can cause serious health problems that impact your family for years. If you suffered injuries from hazardous substances at work, through contaminated drinking water, or defective products, you deserve answers. Mercer Legal Group represents victims across Los Angeles and California.

What Is Considered Toxic Exposure?

 Toxic exposure occurs when dangerous substances enter the body through inhalation, skin contact, or ingestion. Common toxins include asbestos, benzene, lead, heavy metals, pesticides, and forever chemicals (PFAS). Industrial workers at manufacturing plants and residents near contaminated sites face significant health risks. Long term contact with hazardous materials can cause lung cancer, mesothelioma, neurological disorders, birth defects, and nervous system damage. Many people do not realize they were harmed until symptoms appear years later.

Types of Cases We Handle

Workplace Injuries

Workers in construction, manufacturing, and industrial settings are frequently harmed by toxic materials on the job. Asbestos remains a leading cause of occupational illness. Benzene is linked to leukemia. When employers fail to provide protection, workers suffer serious injuries from dangerous chemicals.

Environmental Contamination

Environmental pollution from negligent companies can contaminate the water supply, groundwater, and soil. Communities near hazardous waste sites or nuclear radiation facilities may be harmed by harmful substances without their knowledge. Victims deserve accountability from responsible polluters.

Defective Consumer Products

Products containing lead paint, toxic substances in cosmetics, or contaminated household items can cause injuries. Negligent manufacturers who fail to warn consumers may be held liable for health issues and medical bills.

Pesticide and Agricultural Harm

Farmworkers and residents near agricultural operations face risks from pesticides. These dangerous substances can cause respiratory illness, skin conditions, and long-term health problems. A pesticide exposure lawyer can help victims harmed by improper application.

When I first contacted Simon, I was in a terrible personal state because of what I had endured.

Simon was attentive, responsive, professional, calm, and a real advocate. He helped me find the strength to use my words to express myself when I felt I had no voice.

He was realistic with me. Explained the process and ALWAYS had my best interest in mind.

I especially appreciated the way he conducted himself with the other attorneys who kept trying to make me feel bad about myself. Simon is going to speak up for you, represent you, and won’t let you be bullied. Simon will not back down!

I am so thankful Simon went to law school and was there for me when I needed him.

If you’re ever in need of a brilliant attorney to represent you I highly recommend Simon.

There aren’t enough words for me to express my gratitude to Simon and his team for helping me through the most difficult moment of my life.

When I initially shopped my case around, I got very discouraging responses from most of the firms that I reached out to. After I had already lost hope, Mercer Legal Group reached out to me and asked for me to send along everything I could pertaining to my situation. Simon then assured me that I *did* have a case, and for the next year, fought tirelessly to right the wrong that had been done to me.

I had absolutely no experience in legal matters whatsoever, and Simon stayed honest and direct with me while he patiently explained strategies, his logic behind decisions, and always kept my expectations grounded. Throughout the past year, he has also gone out of his way to remind me that what happened to me was genuinely wrong. It was a kind and needed reminder as we dealt with the other issues around my case. He worked hard to foster a trust between us, and I can say unequivocally that my trust was well-placed. He delivered above and beyond what I was hoping for.

I plan on recommending Mercer Legal Group to anyone seeking help with employment law. Above and beyond in dedication, professionalism, and empathy. I will forever be grateful to Simon and his team.

Simon is an excellent lawyer. Called the law firm not knowing anything on how to get started with a case and they explained everything. I explained my case to Simon and he told me he’d take care of everything and keep me updated. He kept me updated till the time came to settle the case and had an excellent outcome I’d recommend them to anyone who needs an ongoing case.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Mercer Legal Group, and I must say, the experience was nothing short of exceptional. From the outset, their professionalism and dedication were evident, transforming what could have been a daunting legal process into a journey marked by clarity and confidence.

Special commendation must go to Simon, my attorney, whose expertise and strategic acumen were instrumental in securing a favorable settlement for my case. Simon not only provided me with hope but consistently surpassed my expectations. His profound understanding of the law, combined with his relentless pursuit of justice, led to a victorious outcome that I had initially thought unattainable. His ability to navigate complex legal waters with such finesse was truly inspiring.

Equally deserving of praise is Javier, the paralegal who supported me throughout this ordeal. Javier's commitment to keeping me well-informed was invaluable. He demonstrated exceptional patience, accommodating my often challenging work schedule to ensure I was never out of the loop. His thoroughness and attentiveness made all the difference, providing me with peace of mind during what could have been a tumultuous time.

Mercer Legal Group, through the exemplary work of Simon and Javier, has not only met but exceeded the highest standards of legal practice. Their combined efforts have not only resulted in a successful case resolution but have also left me with a renewed faith in the legal profession. I wholeheartedly recommend Mercer Legal Group to anyone in need of legal representation that is both intellectually rigorous and deeply empathetic.
