Goldberg Weisman Cairo to represent 3 members of a Crestwood family who died from drinking contaminated water. 

All 3 family members who died had the type of cancer consistent with exposure to the types of toxic chemicals found in the Village’s drinking water. The Tribune has reported that Crestwood leaders were aware of the toxic chemicals found in the town’s drinking water coming from a particular well and knowingly chose to continue using that water for more than 2 decades. Although the Village advised the EPA that the affected well was shut down, it continued to use the well until December 2007. The residents were led to believe that village officials closed this well. Our clients have asked to remain anonymous until we have identified all of the defendants and filed our wrongful death lawsuit.
