It may be that you have been exposed to toxic mold in your rented apartment, and that you and other tenants have repeatedly told the landlord of the presence of the mold. But on the other hand, it may be that you have been exposed to the mold at your place of work, and nothing has ever been done to check for the presence of such molds or to remove any mold that has been identified. In situations such as these, those exposed to the toxic mold could be eligible to claim a fair amount of compensation for the risks and injuries caused by the exposure, and the negligence of those responsible.
