solvents

Railroad industry workers are increasingly filing lawsuits against their employers for the effects that toxic chemicals encountered on the job have had on their health. Toxic Encephalopathy, a condition characterized by short-term memory loss, depression, equilibrium difficulties, anxiety, and diminished mental functioning, is common among railroad workers and exposure to certain solvents used to clean cars and locomotives are believed to cause the condition.

Although the railroad industry has used toxic cleaning solvents to degrease locomotives for years, past law suits have revealed the industry knew of the danger that such solvents pose to workers as early as the 1950s. Railroad corporations choose to put profit-making before workers' health, since the solvents determined to be toxic are cheaper than those that are not.

James F. Humphreys & Associates builds cases against employers and manufacturers for exposing their employees to dangerous solvents. We will not allow you to suffer due to their negligence.

If you or a loved one has been exposed to toxic solvents and are now suffering from their effects, contact the attorneys of James F. Humphreys & Associates. Fill out your free case evaluator now.
