Imagine it’s a rainy day, and you live in a home where it rains “inside” as well as outside, and you discover the presence of a black oily mold under wet carpeting. Attorney Jennifer Grieco became somewhat of an expert in mold litigation when her client faced this condition in 1999. She learned that this mold was known as Stachybotrys, and it was reported to have the potential for toxic effects for homeowners. ”Initially, mold cases were threatened to be the next “asbestos” litigation and the unknown effects of mold exposure certainly resulted in some initial hysteria. Fortunately, the EPA studied the issue and developed well-accepted standards for the clean-up of mold in homes, schools, and other buildings.”
