South Carolina Toxic Mold Lawsuit

A jury in Berkeley County, South Carolina awarded $50,000 in damages and $75,000 in punitive damages against Prudential Carolina Real Estate because of a sale of a residential property without disclosing that it had a toxic mold problem.

Attorney Michael Scarafile, of Prudential Carolina told reporters that the post-trial motions have not yet been heard by trial Judge Roger Young, so the verdict has not been finalized.

There were two mold reports on the property that were not disclosed prior to the purchase of the house. Dana Winters & Daniella Winters filed a toxic mold lawsuit against Prudential Carolina and against the real estate agaent Barbara Daniels.

In 2005, the Winters bought the property for $110,000. The purchase of the property included a home along with a store. When renovations begun the Winters uncovered black mold during the renovation process. The lawsuit stated that Prudential Carolina knew about the black mold problem and failed to disclose the problem prior to selling the Winters the home.

The Winters are still paying the mortgage on the home but had to abandon the house because of the black mold problem.

According to health reports, black mold can cause serious health issues.

  1. I’ve applied for toxic mold funding several times with different companies. I am still searching for a pre settlement advance. My attorney has released my case docs to a company and I’m not too sure why they just don’t talk to my attorney. Has anyone that is going through the same situation having problems as well?

  2. Give the lawsuit funding company a little time to process your information. They are asking for case documents because this is a way to assess the overall strength of your case.
