Thousands of homeowners across the country who bought homes constructed with defective Chinese dry wall are finding their dreams of homeownership turning into a nightmare. Defective Chinese dry wall emits fumes that smell of rotten eggs and corrode electrical systems, destroy copper piping, televisions, heating and cooling systems, blackens jewelry and silverware and causes pain and suffering to the human body in the form of headaches, respiratory and sinus problems, nosebleeds and eye irritation.

To add insult to injury, the homeowners have discovered that their insurance claims are being denied and they are being told their policies will not be renewed until the defective Chinese dry wall problem is fixed. The removal of the defective Chinese dry wall presents a whole new set of problems, because when it is removed, it emits even more noxious fumes.

During 2004 to 2008 American construction companies imported millions of pounds of Chinese dry wall because it was cheap and plentiful. More than five-hundred million pounds of dry wall from China was imported into this country; enough to build tens of thousands of homes.

The problem of defective Chinese dry wall is a complex problem that involves international companies, builders and insurers. Never before has the need for an experienced defective product attorney like those at The Cochran Firm been so essential.
