Defendant Lawyers

Who is a Possible Defendant?
In toxic exposure cases such as CCA treated lumber or asbestos, finding those responsible can be difficult.  Below is a general list of who might be responsible for your injuries.  Each can be a defendant but may be sued under different legal theories and award size can vary among the possible defendants.  An attorney can help organize which party is responsible and under which legal theory they should be sued: 

  • Manufacturers – those who actually create the chemical or toxic compound
  • Processors – those who apply the chemical to the product, such as those who treat the raw lumber with CCA
  • Distributors – often the middlemen in the retail end of the process
  • Retailers – the ones who sell directly to consumers
