Toxic Tort and Environmental Litigation Practice Group Goldberg Segalla LLP's Toxic Tort and Environmental Litigation Practice Group is in the forefront of toxic tort litigation, defending environmental contamination and personal injury actions involving exposure to asbestos, silica and mixed dust, lead paint, MTBE, caustic chemicals, teratogenic substances, and mold. Our practice group also has extensive experience defending generators, transporters, manufacturers, contractors, property owners, and their insurers against claims relating to CERCLA, RCRA, and New York's Navigation Law. As leaders in the profession, we effectively and economically manage complex, multi-party litigation. We have served as coordinating counsel in multi-district litigation and as liaison counsel for industrial groups and PRPs in mass environmental litigation in state and federal courts throughout the northeastern United States. Our Best Practices philosophy means aggressive investigation, timely evaluation of liabilities, selection of well-qualified experts, and the development of cost efficient, creative litigation strategies. From our extensive involvement in asbestos litigation and the manner in which the courts have managed these claims, we are at the cutting edge of legal developments in New York and across the U.S. in mold, lead paint and silica claims and other claims involving toxic exposure. Our resources and contacts with highly specialized health care professionals, industrial hygienists and other experts help us guide our clients through litigation.
