North Dakota Toxic Chemical Exposure Attorney
Injuried Caused by Dangerous Chemicals
Most oil workers are aware that they are dealing with highly flammable
and toxic gases on a daily basis; however, job sites need to provide proper
safety protocols, equipment, and training to ensure that employees are
safe. When an oil company does not follow federal or state regulations
regarding the safety and exposure to gas, oil, or other toxic chemicals
found on a job site, then serious complications can occur. Prolonged exposure
or sudden, immediate exposure can cause significant injuries and illnesses
to workers. If you have been exposed or injured as a result of a toxic
chemical, you need to contact Lenahan Law Firm right away.

Pursuing Compensation
For most individuals, toxic chemical exposure causes complications that
aren't necessarily detectible or obvious until months or years later.
Prolonged exposure and the amount time and type of chemical can all make
a difference in the illness or injury that you are experiencing. Burns
can be an immediate side effect of a hazardous chemical spill, for example,
while loss of muscle coordination or nervous system damage can be a side
effect of prolonged exposure to carbon monoxide or hydraulic fluid. Regardless
of the complications that you may be facing, it is important that you
