We Handle Orkin and Terminix Litigation in Alabama

Did you know that termites have existed for more than 240 million years? They are highly adaptable to all sorts of different environments, but tend to thrive in warmer climates, such as those you find in the southern part of the United States.  Their ability to thrive, however, can have negative consequences for homeowners and business owners: termites cause more damage than tornadoes, hail storms, wind storms and hurricanes combined, and cost Americans an estimated one billion dollars every year.  

If you have hired professionals to rid your home of termites, your struggle with these unwanted pests may not be over.  In recent years, two of the largest and most well-known pest control companies, Orkin and Terminix, have been the focus of lawsuits by unhappy customers.  The following are just a few examples of Terminix and Orkin litigation in Alabama:

• In 2002, a class action lawsuit was filed against Orkin claiming several Florida homeowners suffered termite damage because the company performed improper chemical treatments, failed to complete annual termite inspections, forged customer signatures on inspection documents, and falsified warranty coverage.

• In Leonard v. Terminix (another class action lawsuit) the pest control company was accused of failure to make required insect inspections and agreed to pay a heavy fine.

• Another Alabama Terminix lawsuit filed on behalf of Lucille Devers, a seventy-nine year-old resident of an Alabama retirement community, claimed that Mrs. Devers suffered injuries from insects in her room after Terminix performed inadequate pest control there.  Terminix was required to pay 1.75 million dollars to the victim.
