Toxic Torts / Chemical Exposure

Toxic Exposure Legal Advice
Welding Rod Lawsuits
Asbestos Lung Cancer Settlement Lawyers

The Provost Umphrey Law Firm was founded in the heart of the petrochemical industry in Southeast Texas. Our trial lawyers made an early commitment to represent workers exposed to chemical hazards. From helping refinery workers who suffered illnesses caused by toxic chemical fumes, our toxic torts law firm is a national leader in litigating toxic torts.

  • The Provost Umphrey Law Firm has represented tens of thousands of victims of toxic exposure.
  • Some of the nation's largest labor unions participated in the Provost Umphrey toxic and hazardous material exposure screening program to identify victims.
  • Our trial attorneys tried and won the nation's first class action personal injury trial involving asbestosis.
  • Our law firm won an asbestos lawsuit decision awarding $1 billion to more than 2,000 plaintiffs.

The toxic torts trial lawyers at Provost Umphrey have won decisions and settlements in a wide range of lawsuits that protect workers, citizens, and the environment from the actions of big corporations.

  • Welding-rod disease lawsuits (manganism, a Parkinson's-like disease)
  • Toxic waste disposal lawsuits
  • Water contamination lawsuits
  • Asbestos (asbestosis, lung cancer, mesothelioma) lawsuits
