Did you develop Parkinson’s disease after being exposed to fumes emitted from welding rods?
If you were a welder who developed Parkinson’s disease from welding rod fumes, you may be entitled to compensation for your pain and suffering.
As of July 2005, a Cleveland federal court ruled welders with Parkinson's disease can proceed with lawsuits against welding rod manufacturers. Plaintiffs can now make the argument that there is a connection between fumes and Parkinson's.
There are an estimated 500,000 or more workers who have been exposed to welding fumes. Currently, there are more than 10,000 suits alleging neurological injuries from welding fumes.
