Methamphetamine Claims

When Meth Manufacturing Has Damaged Your Home...

And You Had Nothing to do With it.

Not only are methamphetamines destructive to the health of those who abuse them, the manufacturing process for this drug can cause extreme damage in the places in which it is made. In many ways, this is the real evil of methamphetamines: innocent victims suffer dire health consequences due to unknown exposure to meth chemicals.

The cost for cleaning up a meth-contaminated home can be more than $40,000. Even worse, homeowners' insurance may claim it does not cover this cost.

How Are People Discovering That Their Property Was Once a Meth Lab?

Every year, many Colorado residents learn that their property was once used for methamphetamine manufacturing. These properties can include homes, apartments, hotel and motel rooms, car trunks, portable toilets and vacant fields. Once the police are called, the property is immediately vacated and cleanup begins.

Some common ways that people discover their property is contaminated due to methamphetamine manufacturing are:

• Pets get sick
• Children and adults get sick
• People start experiencing unusual health problems, possibly including hives, respiratory problems, migraines and more
• Physical signs on the property, such as burn marks on ceilings
• Police raid after a tip-off

Even if the property owner had no involvement whatsoever in the manufacturing of meth, he or she is responsible for the cleanup costs. Without methamphetamine cleanup insurance, that cost can be overwhelming. At The Frankl Law Firm, P.C., we fight aggressively against insurance companies for the protection of property owners.

Does Your Insurance Cover Methamphetamine Cleanup? Probably Not.

The effects of methamphetamine manufacturing on a house or other property are severe. Cleaning up a home where meth was manufactured can cost between $30,000 and $40,000. Sometimes, the effects of a meth lab will necessitate the complete demolition of the property.

Unfortunately, methamphetamine cleanup insurance doesn't exist. Insurance companies realize the high costs of meth cleanup, and the decision not to cover it is in their economic best interest. Insurance will cover more obvious property damage caused by fires, mold and water, but will not touch damages caused by meth manufacturing.

The Frankl Law Firm, P.C. in Denver, Colorado, is ready to fight aggressively against a denied claim for meth cleanup. The high costs of meth cleanup are more than any innocent property owner should have to pay.
