Protecting the environment from polluters is primarily the job of the government through the EPA and regulations such as the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) and Clean Water Act (CWA). Businesses, however, have been known to cover up the damage that they cause to the environment and our communities. Whether the issue is chemical leaks, pesticide runoff, or waste left over from manufacturing, these pollutants often create many life-threatening diseases, especially for those that are young or immuno-compromised. If your family has been exposed to chemicals due to negligence or fraud, you could be due compensation for the repair or replacement of your home, funds to help you to relocate, or to pay for medical bills.
