Fund Luke's Fight Against Toxic Exposure
Donation protected
Hi, my name is Luke and our small farm and home in Colorado was recently exposed to chemical contamination from the larger industrial orchard that neighbors our home. My entire family is being monitored and treated for pesticide exposure.
On top of our medical and travel expenses for treatment (3 hour round trip/ once every 3-5 days), we have been instructed by our doctors to have our well, soil, livestock, pets, tap to public water, window sills and home tested for heavy metals and pesticides.
Chemical/toxic exposure tort is complicated requires several expert witnesses and technicians the process could take years to resolve in court. This makes the retainer fee for attorneys significantly higher than the average retainer fees.
The funds from this fundraiser will help cover the medical expenses for my wife’s heavy metal poisoning treatments, travel expenses, lab fees for contamination testing, veterinary tests for pets and livestock, attorney fees, and possibly evacuation from the property for us and the animals.
Anything helps, even information. If you live north of Cedaredge and have experienced heavy metal poisoning or pesticide exposure troubles with the largest orchard in the community please contact us as this could be a class action case.
