New Jersey Lead Poisoning Attorneys
The consequences of lead paint poisoning are extremely serious. Lead paint has been illegal since 1978, but many buildings built before then still contain paint that can severely injure residents. At worst, lead poisoning can be fatal – but even non-lethal doses can have crippling and life-altering side effects. In adults, symptoms of lead poisoning can include high blood pressure, muscle pain, headache, mood disorders, and miscarriage.
As bad as lead exposure is for adults, children are even more vulnerable. If a child spends time in a building with lead paint, they are at constant risk of lead poisoning. Dust from the wall can cause lead to enter into a child’s lungs, and young children sometimes try to eat paint chips or put them in their mouths. Lead paint can cause significant mental and physical damage in children. This damage may include learning disabilities, seizures, hearing loss, and many other long-term issues.
Simply put, lead poisoning at an early age can fundamentally worsen a child’s future life.
Take Action Against Lead Poisoning. Act Now!
That is why there are strict laws in place to help protect children from exposure to lead paint. Unfortunately, not all landlords abide by these laws, meaning that even well-meaning and careful parents may accidentally expose their children to dangerous amounts of lead.

If you suspect that you or your child experienced lead paint poisoning, you may be feeling angry and confused. Your family may also be struggling with the many side effects of lead exposure, which can result in high medical bills, social problems, and other major issues.
