Even though the chances of contracting something nasty are very small it is and has impacted his life - days off...ruined vacation and now waiting...not to mention his relationship with his wife.

Neither he or I are litigious people but had they cleaned that room he would have been spared a miserable few days...I said get a lawyer and see if you can get them to make it right... His answer...How do you get a lawyer in Seattle? (We are in Pa.) I don't have a lot of money- you know my wife is going back to school. Will they do it on contingency?

This is a great kid -Any thoughts?
He should look for law firms that have people in Seattle and a nearby PA city from where he is now. Most of these would probably do this on contingency. http://lawyers.findlaw.com/
