PFAS Contamination Awareness and Lawsuit Update
Good afternoon, Tracy Paulsen from Rightful Legal. Today it’s pretty chilly out. I’m standing in my hometown in Massachusetts in front of a pond here. It’s very beautiful. I’m standing here for a reason. I’ve been talking a lot about PFAS contamination in our drinking water systems. The town that I live in actually has very high PFAS numbers, and I’ve talked to a lot of people who have been injured, suffered, and are suffering serious injuries and life-threatening injuries as a result.
Health Risks of PFAS Exposure
PFAS are forever chemicals. They’re found in many consumer products, but in our drinking water is really the number one way that human beings are exposed, and there is no amount of PFAS that is safe for human exposure. These can lead to life-threatening illnesses such as kidney cancer, testicular cancer, liver cancer, thyroid cancer, ulcerative colitis, and a whole host of others.
Current Lawsuit and Urgency
Right now, there is a lawsuit pending against the manufacturers, including DuPont and 3M, many of whom knew about the dangers of these chemicals a very long time ago. Opportunities for these types of lawsuits are actually very short. You have to remember that there’s a statute of limitations; it varies person to person and state to state, but generally, these are time-barred.
This is a lawsuit currently happening in the MDL, and it’s most likely going to settle sooner rather than later, so time is running out. They don’t want people to find out about it, and they don’t want to pay.
Why This Matters
Why am I talking about this? To promote awareness to others, because if you have suffered, it’s near and dear to my heart that you deserve to be compensated for the wrongdoing of others.
Secondly, I’m an attorney, and attorneys want to help and promote change, especially in the areas of human health and the environment. It’s something that I’m incredibly passionate about and have worked in my entire life and career.
Holding Polluting Companies Accountable
I’m trying to help people and change the system, and we can do that in this country through tort law by holding polluting companies responsible and liable for the harm they’ve created. Hopefully, that will deter them from doing that again in the future.
