Drywall Lawsuit Filed In Florida
Attorney

There is quite a growing problem in Florida for homeowners who unknowingly bought homes with drywall made in China. A class-action lawsuit has now been brought in South Florida against homebuilder, Lennar on behalf of homeowners.
People claim they are getting sick from the sulfur gas and fumes coming from the dywall used primarily in 2005 and 2006. Many mirrors, metals, electronic equipment, and appliances are being found with corroded wires, the plaintiffs claim results from the drywall.
Many have had to move out of their homes. Lennar is doing what it can to fix the problem and has sued the Chinese drywall manufacturer and distributor.
We are very sorry for the countless people across Florida who bought their dream home and settled in only to find their home was a nightmare. For most of us, the home is where we find peace and relaxation at the end of a stressful day. Not for these folks.
People who have lost property and their health, not to mention a home, likely have a toxic and defective building product. Estimates are up to 100,000 homes in the U.S. may be affected including Alabama, Louisiana and Mississippi.
The results of a state Department of Health investigation as well as uncovering multiple layers of responsible parties, the builder, supplier, and distributor will all need to be uncovered.
Ultimately Lennar as the builder should have shown responsibility for what it was putting in its homes, period. But there are likely others who failed to do their job to ensure that products were of a quality nature and not defective. #
