What Diseases Are Occupationally Related?
The diseases that are caused by occupational exposure to chemicals are too many to enumerate. Occupational diseases affect virtually every organ system of the human body, include malignancies and non-malignant disorders, and manifest as both acute and chronic conditions. It has been said that "[o]ccupationally induced diseases mimic natural disorders."
Since so many occupational diseases result in disability and death, attorneys litigating occupational toxic tort cases should have no shortage of seriously injured clients. The ability of an attorney to bring meritorious occupational disease cases is limited by two factors: the availability of medical/scientific literature establishing a causal connection between the worker's exposure and his disease, and the severity of the disease (which affects the economic practicability of the lawsuit).
