If you are the victim of toxic mold symptoms which you attribute to unresolved water leaks or visible black mold, consult with the Goldstein Law Firm.

At the Goldstein Law Firm , we pursue compensation for clients suffering from personal injuries as well as property damage resulting from toxic mold exposure.  

Some kinds of mold can produce toxins. When these toxins enter into a person’s bloodstream or respiratory system, serious illness can occur. Mold is the result of water damage which has been permitted to remain within the premises without proper repair or remediation. Yet toxic mold can exist undetected in homes, schools or businesses for years. In many cases, people develop serious physical symptoms without ever knowing they have been exposed to toxic mold.

To determine whether it is toxic, mold must be tested by experts in the field, such as microbiologists and industrial hygienists.  

Toxic Mold Is Caused in Various Ways

Toxic mold can be caused by a variety of structural and environmental factors. These include:

• Flooding issues resulting in backed up rain water or sewage
