| Mold is a natural part of the environment
in which we live. Even though it has been present for millions
of years, mold has become a media “buzz word” over
the past few years and is the subject of an increasing number
of bodily injury and property damage liability claims. Claimants
allege exposure to mold in a variety of environments, including
single-family homes, apartments, condominiums, schools, hospitals,
government buildings, commercial buildings and any other type
of structure where water may have entered.
Lynberg & Watkins has successfully defended mold-related
bodily injury and property damage lawsuits involving various
types of structures, from small apartments to multi-story government
office buildings. In many of these cases, the claimants base
their allegations on media-induced hysteria that outweighs
balanced reality. Our goal in these lawsuits is to protect
our clients from unreasonable, unsupported and excessive claims.
To do so, we assemble knowledgeable and respected experts to
address issues of physical and mental health and remediation
of purportedly affected structures.
