Our client, a long-haul truck driver, was hauling
a load of chemicals for an international chemical
distribution company. When she stopped in South
Carolina to check her load, she inhaled Nitric
acid vapors, which caused significant permanent
lung damage and other injuries. Our experts
determined that the likely cause of the chemical
leak was that the barrel containing Nitric acid
was punctured and therefore defective.
