If you have been named or sued in a lead paint case, call the premier lead paint defense attorney Charles Jerome Ware and his staff at (410) 720-6129. They can help you.
Lead-based paint was applied to over two-thirds of the houses built in the United States before 1940, and about a third of those built between 1940 and 1960 --- according to the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Lead paint tastes sweet, so children (particularly up to age 7) have been poisoned from chewing and eating on flakes of lead paint. Residential landlords are the prime targets for lawsuits brought by tenants alleging lead paint poisoning.
Lead paint was banned by the federal government for residential and other consumer uses in 1978.
Residential landlords should be ever mindful of (1) property research prior to purchasing the residence, (2) proper maintenance of the property after purchase, (3) lawful notice to tenants residing in the property, and (4) good and lawful record-keeping on the property as well as the tenants.
