How are Texas children poisoned by lead?

Unfortunately, it is from just being a kid and doing the things that kids do. Younger children have are at higher risk as a result of their hand-to-mouth activity. When children start to walk the hold on to walls, shelves, and windows. When there is chipping and peeling lead paint in a child's home, the tiny chips and leaded dust gets on their hands and into their mouths and the poisoning process begins.

Poisoning occurs when children eat tiny paint chips or inhale harmful leaded dust. Chalking lead paint creates dust that settles on toys and other objects. The young child ingests the dust in normal hand-to-mouth activity. Leaded house dust that is inhaled even in the smallest amounts is just as lethal as that which is ingested. One paint chip the size of a thumbnail, ingested by a young child, can cause permanent brain damage.

If your Texas child or your Texas family member has been exposed to lead-based products such as chipping lead paint, or you have experienced lead poisoning symptoms, you may be eligible to file a claim.
