BENZENE
Benzene, a chemical made from coal and oil, is a clear sweet smelling liquid that can cause harm to those exposed to it, especially at high levels or over a long period. While benzene can be harmful in its liquid state by contaminating water sources or coming into direct contact with an individual’s skin, it is known to evaporate quickly and is typically inhaled.
Benzene is used to make products such as plastics, pesticides, detergents, and gasoline. Therefore, the average person is likely to inhale minimal amounts of benzene through tobacco smoke, vehicle exhaust, or by pumping gasoline over time. High-level benzene exposure can also occur in the workplace causing injury. Gas station attendants, industrial plant workers, and other individuals who work with products made with benzene on a daily basis are especially at risk for developing a serious benzene-related illness from consistent exposure or from a chemical spill.
Exposure to a moderate amount of benzene for a minimal length of time can cause headaches, disorientation, shakiness, vomiting, elevated heart rate, or loss of consciousness. More serious health conditions related to benzene exposure, including, leukemia, Hodgkin’s disease, aplastic anemia, mylodysplastic syndrome, and even death.
If you or a loved one has been harmed by exposure to benzene, you may be eligible for compensation. Contact experienced personal injury attorney H Lee Thompson by calling TOLL FREE 1-800-461-9013 or by filling out the form bellow.

Sometimes children become sick from eat lead based paint chips. The most common source of lead poisoning in children is deteriorating lead based paint in older homes.
