The Joseph Joy & Associates law firm in Lafayette, Louisiana, has extensive experience representing people who have been injured by exposure to toxic substances and other environmental hazards (including groundwater contamination).

At a school in Florida, workers sprayed the roof with a chemical-foam sealant containing Isocyanate, a dangerous chemical. Children at the school came in contact with the sealant. Attorney Joseph Joy filed suit on behalf of the 36 victims, most of whom have suffered and continue to suffer various health problems, including chronic bronchitis, headaches, sporadic asthma attacks, neurological damage, dizziness, breathing problems, memory loss, nausea, and psychological problems such as depression and mood swings. All of these cases settled.

  • Toxic or environmental injuries can result from exposure to asbestos, chemicals, cosmetics, hazardous waste, medical products and devices, pesticides, pharmaceutical products, radiation and electromagnetic energy. We represent clients who need to recover money damages for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering — either individually or as part of a class action.
  • Transporting toxic chemicals can cause serious injury. A deck hand on a tug boat was unknowingly exposed to a toxic chemical in transport. The employer had failed to provide safety equipment or even to tell the injured worker about the danger. Transport of hazardous substances can injure workers as well as the general public unless proper precautions are taken.
