Law Offices of J. Michael Black
J. Michael Black is a Board Certified benzene attorney who handles leukemia cases relating to benzene wherever the chemical industry has a presence.
The chemical industry has known since 1949 that the only safe level of exposure to benzene is zero. Even so, chemical manufacturers and refineries chronically allowed their employees to be exposed to high levels of benzene, resulting in hundreds of thousands of benzene related deaths.
Michael Black has represented thousands of toxic exposure victims, including cases involving occupational exposure to benzene where clients died from acute myelogenous leukemia (AML), acute non-lymphocytic leukemia (ANLL) or myelodysplastic syndrome (also known as myelodysplasia or MDS).
Certified in two areas of trial law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization, Michael Black is highly experienced and has recovered tens of millions of dollars for his clients who were injured in or around chemical plants.
Black co-authored a nationally distributed legal resource book, Civil Trial Practice: Winning Techniques of Successful Trial Lawyers, in his authoritative Chapter on OSHA and Hazardous Chemicals.
A Michael Black jury argument was also published in "Million Dollar Jury Arguments" a nationally distributed audio tape series of real jury arguments after which clients received millions of dollars.
Mike Black has clients who were injured and/or killed as the result of the negligence of others.
These cases have involved numerous factual scenarios, such as injuries and/or deaths caused by:
(a) exposure to benzene and other toxic chemicals,
(b) negligence in chemical plants,
(c) 18-wheelers and other commercial vehicles,
(d) firearm litigation and other product liability litigation,
