Legal Question in Personal Injury in California

Re: Sprayed, can I sue?

I'd take your case. You may contact me.

Re: Sprayed, can I sue?

Yes, you can. Obviously, there will be the typical proof issues, (proving that your damages/injuries are causally related to the chemical exposure), but I would be interested to speak to you about your matter in detail.

Re: Sprayed, can I sue?

Sounds like you've been hitting the law books. If you have a doctor who can tie in what they did with your illness, and the complaint is not barred by the statutes of limitations, go at it.

Re: Sprayed, can I sue?

You can indeed sue and it sounds like you have a good case, though some of the causes of action you list would not be appropriate. You can recover for any medical costs you incurred as a result of the accident as well as for pain and suffering and emotional distress that it caused. You can also recover for any damage to your property, including both your real estate and any personal property which was affected.

Can you demonstrate that your shortness of breath was caused by the chemicals? Did you seek medical care? How much damage was done to your property? The answers to these questions (among others) will determine how large your award will be if you win.

Keep in mind that winning won't do much good unless you can collect your judgment. If the defendants are broke the case may not be worth pursuing despite the merits of your claim.

Good luck!
