Frequently Asked Questions

Can You Sue After Getting Sick From Mold Exposure in New Jersey?

Technically, the answer is yes. If a person is exposed to mold at work or while living in a rental property, they may be able to file for worker’s compensation or a settlement from the at-fault party.

How Do You Prove Mold Exposure?

To prove mold exposure, experts can test to see if humans have been harmfully exposed to:

Fungus spores
Microbial volatile organic compounds
Mycotoxins

These mold tests should always be performed by trained medical or mold remediation experts, then assessed via lab analysis. If you believe you have been exposed to mold spores or other environmental contaminants, contact our team to learn about your next steps.

Why Are Expert Environmental Witnesses Important in Mold Cases?

Environmental witnesses, including mold experts, are crucial when it comes to backing up claims made in court. Their job is to help jurors understand the complex, nuanced pieces of information that can significantly impact the result of the case. Strong witnesses also provide a sense of objectivity and credibility to any legal case.

What Counts as a “Qualified” Environmental Witness?

Rules about expert witnesses are set by the State and Federal Rules of Evidence. Typically, a qualified expert witness must be someone who has the training, experience, and education in a specialized field related to the case.

What Is the Difference Between a Mold Expert Witness and a Lay Witness?

A mold expert witness shares a testimony or opinion based on their knowledge and skill in the field. This allows them to draw highly specialized conclusions. Lay witnesses, on the other, may have personally witnessed the mold – but they don’t necessarily have the credentials to back their claims or stories up.

What Should I Do if My Property Does Test Positive for Mold?

First, we recommend redoing the test with a professional mold inspection team. Over-the-counter tests are not always accurate, nor do they give you important information on the extent of mold growth and what contributed to it.

You might also need to schedule an additional control test to see if your molds are beyond Normal Fungal Ecology and pose a health risk. We can help you assess these factors and decide on the appropriate plan of action going forward.

Am I Responsible for Testing My Property for Mold Before I Sell It?

In the state of New Jersey, it is technically legal to sell a house with mold. However, you will likely be required to disclose this information prior to the sale. Therefore, we recommend scheduling a professional mold inspection before accepting any offers.
