Welding Rod Injury Attorneys
in Denver and throughout Colorado and Wyoming
Welders can sustain injuries when small airborne particles of manganese in the welding fumes enter their noses or mouths, then enter the bloodstream, and finally reach the brain. Once in the brain, manganese can affect muscle movement and other bodily functions, producing symptoms much like Parkinson's disease.
The Welding Rods MDL has been assigned to the Northern District of Ohio, MDL-1535. Plaintiffs allege that commercial manufacturers and sellers of welding rods were aware of these health dangers for many years and failed to provide adequate warnings. The first case in the MDL to go to trial settled for an undisclosed amount mid-trial, the next trial is set for early 2006.
Burg Simpson is currently handling cases on behalf of welders who have suffered injuries due to manganese exposure, including those diagnosed with Parkinson's who may actually be suffering from manganism.
