Lumber Liquidators Laminate Flooring Lawsuits

Serving Clients Nationwide From Our Texas Offices in Corpus Christi, San Antonio, Austin, and Dallas

Lumber Liquidators is under federal scrutiny after it was revealed that Chinese-made laminate flooring imported by the company contains dangerous levels of formaldehyde.

Investigations by the Consumer Products Safety Commission (CPSC) warn that the flooring poses significant long-term and short-term health risks, especially to young children who may be playing or crawling on the laminate flooring. These risks include an increased risk of cancer.


Lumber Liquidators Issued Fine for Defective Flooring

In February 2016, Lumber Liquidators was fined $13 million for violations of the Lacey Act and for making false statements. It was revealed that the company had claimed the lumber had come from Germany when in fact the product was imported from East Asia. Lumber Liquidators is also facing roughly 130 lawsuits from affected consumers.


Effects of Formaldehyde Exposure

Long-term exposure to the Lumber Liquidators laminate flooring may result in:

  • Cancer
  • Asthma
  • Rash
  • Headaches
  • Changes in mood
  • Depression
  • Insomnia
  • Attention deficit disorders
  • Impaired memory
  • Impaired dexterity
  • Impaired breathing
  • Wheezing and coughing

How Does the “No Win No Fee” Promise Work?

The Thomas J. Henry “No Win No Fee” promise works as part of a contingency fee agreement. Instead of receiving payments from clients, we recoup fees and expenses from the final settlement or verdict our clients receive.

This allows us to start working on your case as soon as you hire us, ensuring that your case is handled with the urgency it deserves. It also means you can focus on getting better rather than cutting us a check.

The percentage we collect may vary depending on the complexity of your case, but you will be kept informed so you know what we are collecting before your case is closed.

Even better, you owe us nothing if we don’t win your case! Because our fees are collected as a percentage of your settlement or verdict, we do not collect anything unless and until you get your recovery. This means there is no risk to hiring a qualified attorney to handle your case!

Do I Have to Pay to Speak with an Injury Attorney?

Thomas J. Henry Law offers free case reviews so that you can better understand your legal options. This means you pay nothing for your first consultation. Additionally, Thomas J. Henry Law works on a contingency fee basis meaning that if you do choose to hire us, you pay us nothing unless and until we win your case.

To learn more about what it takes to speak with an injury attorney about your claim here.

Do I Need a Personal Injury Attorney Help Me Settle My Case?

Insurance companies will attempt to pay out as little as possible when resolving an injury claim. When an individual pursues compensation from an insurance company without the aid of an attorney, the insurance company may see the lack of representation as an opportunity to lowball the injured victim as there is no immediate risk of trial or legal recourse.

By hiring a competent attorney who has a reputation for achieving large verdicts in the courtroom, you are sending a message to the insurer. It will provide the insurance company with extra incentive to offer a fair settlement the first time.

If that first offer is not fair, an experienced personal attorney will have the resources and the knowledge to negotiate with the insurance company in pursuit of a better offer.

What is a Contingency Fee?

In a contingency fee arrangement, an attorney agrees to accept a fixed percentage of your recovery as payment. This means that if you win your case, your attorney will collect their fees and expenses from the money awarded to you. However, if you lose your case, your attorney will collect nothing.

Most lawyers prefer not to work on contingency cases for two reasons:

  • There is a risk the firm will be paid nothing
  • Any payment is delayed until money is collected from the opposing party

Generally, a lawyer who accepts contingency fee cases:

  • Regularly represents clients who lack the financial resources to pay hourly attorney’s fees (as is often the case for personal injury victims).
  • Is more selective about the cases they accept.
  • Is very confident in their ability to win the cases they choose to handle.

How Much Does it Cost to Hire a Personal Injury Attorney?

The cost associated with hiring a personal injury attorney and how payment is collected may vary from firm to firm. At Thomas J. Henry, we work on a contingency fee basis. This means that we don’t charge our clients a penny unless and until we win their case.

Working on a contingency fee basis allows clients access to resources and legal representation they might otherwise struggle to afford. The more serious a case is, the more money it costs to take to trial. This is because complex litigation tends to take longer to resolve and the entities involved fight harder.

This is especially true if your lawsuit is against a large company, as would be the case in a trucking accident or on-the-job injury. Such companies employ teams of lawyers and have seemingly unlimited financial resources. You need an attorney who has the same. Thomas J. Henry employs a team of more than 100 attorneys and has the money to fight your case out to the end.

Finally, by collecting any fees and expenses after a verdict or settlement is secured, Thomas J. Henry can help ensure his clients are able to focus on healing. “The client’s job is to heal. We will handle the rest,” says Thomas J. Henry.

How Much Is My Personal Injury Case Worth?

In Texas, a personal injury case is only worth what a jury is willing to award you. This is why you need an attorney who can not only prove the economic damages you have sustained due to your accident, but can also demonstrate the value of non-economic damages you may have sustained, such as pain and suffering, mental anguish, and loss of consortium.
