Plumbing contractors are at particular risk in the latest trial lawyer scam.
Frankenstein, Dracula and the Bogeyman don't scare anyone in our enlightened 21st century. The blood-curdling monsters of today bear names like Stachybotrys, Aspergillus, Chaetomium and Pennicillium. Don't worry about pronouncing them. They go under the simpler terms of fungus or mold. They are denizens of hell that get conjured up throughout the land by high priests of black magic otherwise known as trial lawyers.
Toxic mold litigation is one of the hottest scams going in America today. That's where homeowners and commercial building tenants, egged on by the aforementioned sorcerers, sue everyone in sight over real or imagined ailments induced by mold growth resulting from moisture in confined spaces.
