Many valuable examples of what other groups have gone through are cited and as a environmental veteran of many fights I believe me this is priceless information! Step by step assistance and checkpoints in choosing a lawyer for your environmental fight detailed in easy to understand instructions.

Important questions your group needs to ask are listed one by one. Questions that when addressed properly could save your group thousands of dollars in their fight for environmental justice. Your choice of lawyer may be the key issue in whether you win or loose your case, and this book helps you to better make that decision.

As an added bonus, this book is written from the point of view of one that has been there. Linda Price King has worked extensively with grass roots environmental groups around the country. So often, books written for the environmental movement by so called professionals and advisors are clueless to how an actual environmental battle is carried on. Miss King uses all of her expertise and experience in providing a book that will help environmental groups in their battles and that is a victory for all hard working grassroots environmental groups everywhere.

Summary of Chemical Injury and the Courts: A Litigation Guide for Clients and Their Attorneys

A chemical injury can happen at any time to anyone, regardless of age, background, or economic status. It can happen either on the job or in the home, and can affect many members of a community. Such an injury often does not show up immediately but develops over a long period. Often, however, sufferers from chemical exposure are victimized not only by the chemicals but also by a legal system that seems to require complicated and expensive court action.

This helpful guide to chemical-injury litigation offers practical strategies that clients and their attorneys can use to better serve their cases. Presenting a clear blueprint of client rights and responsibilities, the book will improve the standard of legal services for both individuals and communities. The guide addresses in detail several important areas of chemical injury and the legal process: defining problems and solutions; examining available resources; cultivating a knowledge of chemical-related diseases and injuries; and facilitating effective attorney-client relationships and case strategies. Leading attorneys contribute case studies and essays offering perspectives on chemical injury and the law.
