BALTIMORE, Maryland LANDLORD LEAD-PAINT POISONING UPDATE

www.charlesjeromeware.com.  "Here to make a difference."
The Maryland-headquartered national lead-paint defense law fir of Charles Jerome Ware, Attorneys & Counselors, is highly-regarded and well-respected for its successful representation of landlords in lead-paint poisoning cases in Baltimore. For an initial courtesy consultation, contact us at charlesjeromeware@msn.com,  (410) 730-5016  or  (410) 720-6129.

 On or about October 24th, 2011, the Maryland Court of Appeals struck down a key provision of Maryland's Reduction of Lead Risk in Housing Act  (1994) that provided owners(landlords) of older rental housing (pre-1978)  some shielding from civil lawsuits ( and potentially costly payments to alleged victims) if they took precautions to protect children in their housing units from lead-paint poisoning.

Springing forward to April 9th, 2012 :  The general Assembly re-visited this issue by passing a bill that would require landlords with housing units built before 1978 to protect their from lead-paint hazards, along with a provision urging courts to penalize baseless litigation over the problem.
