The Plain Dealer of Cleveland, "Man Who Blames His Parkinson's on Welding Wins Suit; Many More Pending" |
Larry Elam went to court to prove that welding had ruined his health. Elam said he suffered from Parkinson's disease that stemmed from years of using welding rods made and sold by companies across the country. The companies denied any link between welding and Parkinson's.
A jury awarded Elam $1 million in an Illinois court last month, marking the first time a plaintiff won a case in 10 such trials. While Elam's lawsuit was filed in state court in Illinois, Cleveland has become the focal point of hundreds of welding cases. |
