Over the past few years, allegations of bodily injuries and property damage arising from the presence of toxic mold in buildings have resulted in an explosion of litigation across the nation. Plaintiffs in toxic mold litigations are pursuing building owners, property managers, architects and contractors including roofers, plumbers, waterproofers, heating and ventilation and air conditioning contractors. In several cases, plaintiffs also directly pursuing defendants' insurance companies.
In addition to compensatory damages for bodily injuries and property damages, plaintiffs in these cases may also be seeking medical monitoring costs and relocation expenses under such causes of action as liability, non-disclosure, negligence, breach of warranty or contract, misrepresentation and mental anguish. Many of these cases also involve allegations of construction or design defects as the initial cause or a contributing cause of the mold's presence and growth.
