Understandably, many residential landlords in Baltimore are experiencing anxiety due to the enormous stress and pressure heaped upon them because of the prolific number of lead paint claims filed every year in this city against them. There are many knowledgeable commentators who consider Baltimore City to be "ground zero" for lead paint cases in the United States. The principal reasons for this view are the large number of pre-1978 built houses and apartments (containing lead paint) in the city, as well as the heavy industrial use of lead in traditional Baltimore manufacturing companies. It could even be argued that lead is "everywhere" in certain areas of Baltimore --- though, in many cases, lead injuries are not necessarily the fault of residential landlords.
It is very important for residential landlords to at least consult with an experienced lead paint defense attorney when notified of a lead injury claim against him or her. The ramifications of proceeding without an attorney to defend you in these high stakes lawsuits can be anxiety-ridden and emotionally devastating, and out right financially dangerous. Getting sued is no fun for any defendant. Get consultation from a lawyer when this happens to you.
