If water damage, mold, or asbestos harmed your health or destroyed your home, you deserve help.
Floods can cause mold, illness, and lost property when owners fail to maintain buildings. The Brinton Firm helps people rebuild and recover when unsafe conditions lead to water damage.
Understanding Water Damage, Mold & Asbestos Injuries
Exposed to Mold or Water Damage in Your Home? You May Be Entitled to Compensation
Water damage is more than a property problem — it is a health crisis. Leaking roofs, burst pipes, and flooding create mold, structural damage, and toxic conditions that can make a home or building unlivable. When property owners ignore water intrusion or delay repairs, occupants suffer. The Brinton Firm helps people recover for health problems, property losses, and displacement caused by water damage.

We start with a no-cost, confidential review of your case. Tell us what happened, and our experienced Los Angeles personal injury lawyers will quickly determine if a property owner’s, landlord’s, or manager’s negligence caused your injury.

We handle everything: gathering maintenance records, repair requests, photos of the dangerous condition, medical bills, incident reports, and witness statements to build an ironclad case proving negligence and liability.
3. Negotiation
Armed with strong evidence, we negotiate aggressively with the property owner, management company, insurer, and all responsible parties to secure a fair settlement that covers your medical bills, lost wages, pain, and suffering.

Understanding Water Damage & Toxic Exposure Claims
When you’re injured by water damage, mold, or asbestos, the law says property owners and landlords are responsible. Property owners and landlords must maintain safe, habitable conditions, address water intrusion promptly, remediate mold properly, and prevent asbestos exposure. When they fail to do so, they are responsible for the health consequences.
These cases often require environmental testing, medical expert testimony, and documentation of the property’s condition. The Brinton Firm has the experience and resources to investigate the cause, work with experts, and build a strong case to recover full compensation for victims and their families. See our case results to see how we’ve helped water damage and mold victims recover significant compensation.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I sue a property owner for mold exposure?
Yes. If a property owner knew about mold and failed to remediate it, or if mold resulted from their failure to fix leaks or water damage, you may have a valid claim for health injuries and property damage.
What health problems are caused by mold exposure?
Mold exposure can cause respiratory problems, chronic coughing, asthma attacks, sinus infections, skin rashes, eye irritation, headaches, fatigue, and in severe cases, neurological symptoms. Children and immunocompromised individuals are especially vulnerable.
How long do I have to file a mold injury claim in California?
Generally two years from the date of injury or discovery of the injury. For property damage claims, the statute of limitations may differ. Contact an attorney promptly to preserve your rights.
Is asbestos still present in older California buildings?
Yes. Asbestos was commonly used in building materials until the 1980s. It can be found in insulation, floor tiles, ceiling tiles, pipe wrapping, and roofing materials in buildings constructed before 1980. Disturbance of asbestos-containing materials during renovation or water damage can release dangerous fibers.
What compensation can I recover for water damage or mold injuries?
You may be able to recover for medical expenses, property damage, temporary housing costs, additional living expenses, pain and suffering, and emotional distress.
What should I do if I find mold in my home or building?
Report the mold to your landlord in writing immediately and keep a copy of your notice. Take photos and document the extent of the mold. Seek medical attention if you or anyone in your household has developed respiratory symptoms. Do not attempt to clean large mold areas yourself — disturbing mold can spread spores. If your landlord fails to address the problem promptly, contact The Brinton Firm for a free consultation.
