Conyers, Georgia Chlorine Fire at Biolab

 


Heninger Garrison Davis is helping lead the fight for community residents seeking compensation for injuries and property damage caused by the catastrophic chlorine fire in Conyers, Georgia, in May, 2004.

 

Great Lakes Chemical Corporation and BioLab, Inc.

The fire spread toxic chemicals through the Conyers community and beyond, causing serious health problems and damaging homes and businesses.

 

Heninger Garrison Davis and the law firms it has allied with have filed a lawsuit for the victims against Great Lakes Chemical Corporation and BioLab, Inc. The suit seeks compensation on a class basis.  Thousands of persons could become members of the class.  Local businesses also are represented.

 

Health Problems from fire in Conyers Community

Heninger Garrison Davis is nationally known and respected for representing plaintiffs in large-scale lawsuits. The firm's attorneys have identified several health problems caused by the BioLab fire, including inhalation injuries to lungs and throats, burned eyes, and acute respiratory distress, particularly among asthma sufferers.

Lewis Garrison, who is our lead attorney in the case, intends to prove that the disaster could have been prevented.

 

“BioLab knew before the fire that there were risks of dangerous chlorine releases,” he told the press when the lawsuit on behalf of victims was filed. The Rockdale Citizen, the Associated Press, and Atlanta-area TV and radio widely reported the lawsuit, which is ongoing. Mr. Garrison notes, “Every day, more people hurt by the fire contact my firm seeking help. We will help them.”

 

“The grim toll of BioLab's toxic chemicals is rapidly adding up, no relief in sight except the people's legal rights,” Mr. Garrison asserts. Heninger Garrison Davis' goal, he explains, is to obtain the compensation the victims deserve. To help achieve the goal, the firm has allied with the national law firm Zimmerman Reed, PLLP, and other prominent law firms that, like Heninger Garrison Davis, are experienced in large-scale, complex cases.
