Occupational Exposures
Injuries Resulting from Exposures to Contaminants and Carcinogens
For the first 13 years of his career, personal injury Attorney Sandoval dedicated his career representing railroad retirees that had developed debilitating health conditions that were related to their occupational exposures to contaminants and cancer producing dust, fumes, chemicals, and vapors.
The Sandoval Law Firm, PLLC handles cases involving work-related exposures to the following:

Which of your employers may be responsible for the resulting health condition?
It’s not always easy to determine whether your specific health condition can be attributable to occupational exposure. Despite there being a vast compendium of medical literature linking specific medical conditions to exposures to the above contaminants, it not so easy to determine where and when the exposure occurred. Therefore, if you’ve developed a health condition and you were exposed to any of the above contaminants, contacting Attorney Sandoval gets him working on figuring out which of your employers may be responsible for the resulting health condition.
According to the Texas Department of Insurance, “employers must tell their employees that they carry workers’ compensation insurance by providing a written notice of coverage to new employees upon hire.”
