How Segal Law Can Help You with PFAS Exposure Cases
PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) are harmful chemicals that have been found in drinking water, soil, and even household products. These manmade chemicals do not break down easily, which means they can build up in our bodies and the environment over time. Unfortunately, exposure to PFAS has been linked to serious health risks, including cancer, liver damage, immune system issues, and developmental problems in children. If you or a loved one has suffered from PFAS exposure, Segal Law is here to help.
What Are PFAS?
PFAS are a group of chemicals used in many industries for their resistance to water, grease, and heat. They have been widely used in products like non-stick cookware, stain-resistant fabrics, and firefighting foams. While they may have made life more convenient, studies now show that these chemicals are extremely dangerous when they enter drinking water supplies.
How PFAS Contaminates Drinking Water
PFAS contamination often comes from industrial sites, military bases, and manufacturing plants where these chemicals were heavily used. Over time, PFAS seeps into the ground and contaminates water supplies. Unlike other pollutants, PFAS cannot be easily removed from water without special filtration systems. Many people who rely on well water or live near contaminated areas may have been drinking PFAS-contaminated water for years without realizing it.
Health Risks Associated with PFAS Exposure
Exposure to PFAS has been linked to severe health conditions, including:
Cancer (kidney, liver, and testicular cancer)
Thyroid disease
Weakened immune system
Liver damage
Birth defects and developmental issues in children
Increased cholesterol levels
Hormonal imbalances
The longer someone is exposed to PFAS, the greater their risk of developing health problems. Since these chemicals stay in the body for a long time, even low-level exposure can be harmful over time.
Legal Actions Against PFAS Manufacturers
Many companies that produced PFAS knew about the risks but failed to warn the public. Now, people who have suffered health issues due to PFAS exposure are fighting back. Lawsuits have been filed against major manufacturers, holding them accountable for contaminating drinking water and causing serious health problems.
Segal Law is committed to helping individuals and communities affected by PFAS contamination seek justice. If you or a loved one has developed health issues linked to PFAS exposure, you may be entitled to compensation for:
Medical bills
Lost wages
Pain and suffering
Property damage due to contaminated water
