What a mold claim may be worth

We are often asked what a case is worth. The honest answer is that it depends on facts we cannot know from a phone call — how bad the contamination is, what it did to your health and your belongings, how long the landlord knew about it, and whether the building has a history.

Claims can take account of medical costs, damaged property, rent paid for a unit that was not habitable, the cost of moving, and in some cases general damages. Every case turns on its own facts. No outcome is guaranteed, and past results do not predict future results.

What to do right now

Two things matter more than almost anything else, and both are free.

Put it in writing. Text and email create a dated record that is hard to dispute later. A phone call to the building manager usually does not.

Photograph everything, with dates. The mold, the leak or water source behind it, your damaged belongings, and any notice you receive. If you see a doctor, tell them you have been exposed to mold so it appears in your medical records.

What it costs

Attorney’s fees are paid from any recovery. Costs are handled separately and are set out in a written fee agreement before we begin. Your consultation is free.
