While pesticides play an important role in pest control and crop production, they can also pose severe risks to human health. The law protects your legal rights if you or a loved one has been exposed to pesticides and are experiencing health issues.

At D’Amico Law Offices, LLC, our experienced attorneys have over 67 years of combined experience fighting for the rights of injured individuals throughout Pittsburgh and Western Pennsylvania. As a local, family-owned firm, we intimately understand the unique pesticide risks in our region’s industrial and agricultural sectors. Therefore, we have what it takes to take on major corporations and the personal commitment to support you through this difficult time.

How Pesticide Exposure Happens

Pesticide exposure can occur in many ways, often without the victim even realizing it. For example:

  • Occupational exposure
  • Environmental drift
  • Contamination of soil
  • Contamination of groundwater
  • Residential use
  • Residue of toxins in foodstuffs

Pesticide exposure can have serious impacts ranging from mild, short-term symptoms to severe, life-altering conditions like respiratory problems, skin issues, neurological effects, reproductive harm and increased cancer risk.

Illnesses And Damages As A Result Of Pesticide Exposure

When someone is exposed to harmful pesticides, they may develop either acute or chronic symptoms. Many workers experience long-term exposure on a consistent basis. The symptoms they see can differ widely, depending on the type of chemicals and the type of exposure.

In many cases, the symptoms are severe. Some pesticides are human carcinogens, meaning that long-term exposure may lead to the development of potentially fatal types of cancer. Both contact exposure and unintentional consumption – such as breathing the fumes – could also lead to:

  • Internal bleeding
  • Fever
  • Chronic headaches
  • Respiratory issues
  • Anxiety and confusion
  • Skin or eye irritation
  • Digestive issues

Even short-term exposure could lead to serious complications if the pesticides are inhaled, ingested or applied to the skin. Pesticide exposure can ultimately lead to convulsions, unconsciousness or respiratory failure. Those who survive these short-term issues could still develop serious ailments, such as cancer or long-term respiratory problems. Along with their family members, they may be interested in talking to a pesticide exposure lawyer.
