Have you been exposed to high levels of lead?

La Oroya Community Might Be At Risk

Adults and children could have been exposed to harmful and high concentrations of dangerous, toxic and harmful substances in the air, water, and soil, which would be made up of lead, arsenic, cadmium and sulfur dioxide.


As is commonly known, when children are exposed to even a small amount of lead, it can affect their development and behavior in various ways. It might cause:

ADHD

Brain Damage

Developmental Delay

Hearing Loss

Learning Disabilities

Lowered IQ

Other Serious Injuries

How did this happen?

La Oroya Complex owners may have carelessly and irresponsibly safeguarded the metals and toxic substances used and generated by the complex.


These actions may have resulted in the release of said toxic metals, gases and other toxic substances into and around the properties. Children could have been exposed since these are their homes and recreational areas.

The owners of said complex seemingly also deceived the children's parents and guardians by hiding the information related to the dangers caused by the toxic exposure by the minor plaintiffs.


Now, there currently exist suitable technologies and processes to prevent the pollution caused by the activities at the La Oroya Complex; however, such technology has not been implemented at the complex.

What does lead do to the human body?

The Center for Disease Control (CDC) considers a blood level above five micrograms per deciliter (ug/dL) to be elevated and concerning. The risk of all sorts of health effects increases as blood-lead levels rise:


Altered memory

Impaired balance

Decreased dexterity

Infertility

Decreased kidney function

Increased risk of hypertension

Gout

Increased risk of heart disease

Emotional instability

Kidney damage

Headaches

Numbness or pain

Hearing loss

Stomach pain

You May Be Entitled To Significant Compensation

La Oroya Complex owners may have operated in the site with shocking negligence, and they must be held accountable for their actions.
