Folder: Toxic Torts

At Joey James Law, science is the cornerstone of case development and litigation strategy. These cases typically involve complex claims where individuals or communities have been harmed by exposure to chemicals, pollutants, pharmaceuticals, or other hazardous substances. To build a compelling case, the firm relies heavily on scientific evidence to establish three key legal elements: exposure, causation, and damages.

Scientific disciplines such as chemistry, biology, mathematics, psychology, toxicology, epidemiology, environmental engineering, industrial hygiene, and medicine are used to trace the source and pathway of exposure, determine dose levels, and assess health effects. The firm works closely with scientific experts to interpret laboratory reports, environmental data, medical records, and peer-reviewed studies. These experts may also conduct site investigations, reconstruct exposure scenarios, and provide testimony in depositions or at trial.

Additionally, science is crucial when challenging the validity of opposing expert opinions. Attorneys must be well-versed in scientific methodologies to identify weaknesses in data interpretation, uncover conflicts of interest, or highlight deviations from accepted scientific standards.

Science also plays a role in regulatory compliance and standards, such as those set by the EPA, OSHA, FDA, or state agencies. Understanding these guidelines helps the firm demonstrate whether defendants acted negligently or failed to meet established safety thresholds.

Ultimately, the integration of science ensures that legal arguments are grounded in credible, objective evidence—enabling the firm to advocate effectively for individuals harmed by toxic exposures and to hold corporations accountable for endangering public health.
