Industrial Mold Exposure Lawyer Leesburg VA | Factory & Warehouse Claims
If you work in a factory, warehouse, or industrial facility here in Leesburg, Virginia, you probably expect a challenging environment—loud machines, long hours, physical labor.
What you don’t expect is for the air you breathe to make you sick.
But I’ve seen it happen. Mold doesn’t just grow in basements and bathrooms.
It thrives in neglected industrial spaces—places where leaks go unnoticed, ventilation is poor, or humidity builds up behind walls and machinery.
And when it does, it can seriously damage your health.
Mold Isn’t Just Ugly. It’s Toxic.
One of my clients worked in a manufacturing plant where a pipe had been leaking in the break room ceiling for months.
Nobody fixed it.
The smell was awful, but management chose to ignore it.
Over time, he started getting dizzy, short of breath, and developed rashes and sinus infections that never fully healed.
Eventually, testing revealed black mold in the walls, right near the HVAC vents.
It had been circulating through the building for months. He wasn’t the only one sick—others were complaining too.
But no one thought they could take legal action.
That’s where I came in.
You Have the Right to a Safe Workplace—Even in Industrial Jobs
Whether you’re loading shipments or operating a machine press, your employer is legally responsible for maintaining safe working conditions, including preventing the spread of mold.
This isn’t just about keeping the floor clean.
It’s about protecting your lungs, your immune system, and your future.
Signs you’ve been exposed to toxic mold at work may include:
- Chronic coughing, wheezing, or shortness of breath
- Persistent fatigue or brain fog
- Skin rashes, burning eyes, or sinus infections
- Worsening asthma or respiratory issues
- Headaches and light sensitivity
And if these symptoms go untreated, they can worsen—some people suffer permanent health problems from prolonged mold exposure.
Filing a Toxic Tort Claim in Leesburg
When an employer or property owner fails to fix a known mold problem—or worse, ignores complaints—they can be held legally accountable.
That’s called a toxic tort, and it’s how we fight for workers like you.
I work with environmental investigators and medical experts to gather evidence and build a strong case.
You don’t need all the proof when you walk into my office—I’ll help you get it.
