A Milwaukee attorney vowed today that he would continue his legal battle with paint manufacturers after a jury found his client had not been injured by ingesting lead paint.
“There are many grounds for appeal,” said Peter Earle, the attorney who sued on behalf of a 17-year-old youth claiming his mental retardation was caused by lead paint products.
The verdict in Milwaukee County Circuit Court was a victory for the defendant companies in the case: Atlantic Richfield Co., Millennium Holdings LLC, NL Industries Inc. and The Sherwin Williams Company.
