Is Lead Exposure Responsible for Your Child's Difficulties?
If your child is suffering from learning disabilities after being exposed to lead in the home, at school or elsewhere, it is very likely that those two things are connected. Doctors have strongly established that lead exposure can cause serious problems with learning. At the Law Offices of Charles N. Rock in New York, we represent children throughout the northeast U.S. who have learning disabilities caused by lead poisoning.

Understanding the Impact of Lead Poisoning on Learning
Long-term lead poisoning frequently causes neurological injuries that can do serious harm to a child's ability to learn and function in school. If your child is affected by lead poisoning, he or she may be having a hard time with skills that are essential to learning, such as:
- Paying attention and concentrating
- Understanding what others say or write
- Expressing thoughts
- Processing information
Learning disabilities caused by lead poisoning can make it increasingly difficult for a child to keep up with the progress his or her peers are making in the classroom. In severe cases, children are unable to complete high school, which affects their ability to get employment.

Attorney Charles Rock and our team are experienced at seeking compensation for children who have learning disabilities as a result of lead poisoning. We will work with a qualified neuropsychologist to measure the overall impact of lead poisoning on your child's learning.
