What the firm does
The work on this site is childhood lead poisoning in New York. Apartments. Private landlords. NYCHA. A school classroom, when that is the place. Bronx, Brooklyn, and the other boroughs, when that is where the child was exposed.
Parents looking for a lawyer after a blood test are not looking for a film or a verdict tape. They need to know who will pick up. Call The Frankel Law Firm. Calling does not, by itself, create an attorney-client relationship. The firm represents you only if it agrees to.
Experience makes all the difference
The firm’s published materials state that it litigated the case which established the regulatory liability of a landlord for childhood lead poisoning in New York City. Official Reports identify that decision as Juarez v. Wavecrest Management Team Ltd., 88 N.Y.2d 628, decided July 2, 1996.
This firm was counsel for the plaintiffs in that Court of Appeals matter. That pedigree is not a promise about another family’s case.
The firm’s published materials also note work on prenatal exposure of an unborn child to lead-based paint. That matter is not named on this page.

Announced lead matters
Announced recoveries from recent years appear in the firm’s own published announcements. Those figures are not court orders and are not a prediction. Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome. For the lead practice door, see Lead poisoning lawyer.
A lawsuit against the New York City Department of Education was announced on August 5, 2026. It is pending. It is not a result.
