Long Island’s PFAS Water Crisis:
Your Health’s on the Line.

Leonardo da Vinci said “Water is the source of life.” On Long Island it can be the source of illness and disease.

Maybe it’s your child or spouse, diagnosed with cancer or ulcerative colitis. The culprits may be exposure to toxic PFAS chemicals that have contaminated drinking water, which can also lead to in utero exposure.

What Are Forever Chemicals, and Why Are They So Dangerous?

Forever Chemicals, or PFAS, are toxic chemicals tainting your tap. We know how heavy this feels. Those sleepless nights, that anger, the fear of what’s next. But KRENTSEL GUZMAN HERBERT, LLP is here to help you.

Long Island’s drinking water ranks among the most contaminated. A federal database shows 19 water suppliers detected PFAS. In 16 districts, levels exceed 20 ppt, one hitting 146 ppt, over double the 70 ppt seen nationwide, per Citizens Campaign for the Environment.

That’s your water. You’ve been drinking it for years, cooking with it, and bathing in it. Each sip and shower adds toxins to your body.

The Effects of PFAS on Your Body

These manufactured chemicals don’t break down—not in the environment, not in your body. They build up in your bloodstream over time, and the CDC warns they’re linked to serious diseases.

Long Island residents’ exposure is worse than most of the U.S. You’ve been using these products for years, and it’s taking a toll.

Is Long Island Water Contaminated With PFAS?

Yes, and it isn’t good. Long Island’s drinking water ranks among the most contaminated, with 16 districts exceeding 20 ppt, one hitting 146 ppt, which is over double the 70 ppt levels seen nationwide, per Citizens Campaign for the Environment.

A federal database shows 19 Long Island water suppliers detected PFAS. Areas like Bethpage, Hicksville, Massapequa, and West Hempstead are hit hard across Nassau and Suffolk counties.

This didn’t happen overnight. Manufacturers like 3M and DuPont released PFAS into the environment for decades, polluting groundwater, drinking water, and families like yours.

Am I Eligible for Compensation for PFAS-Related Cancers?

Yes. If you’ve lived on Long Island for years, drinking, washing and bathing in tap water, that’s exposure. Studies show PFAS increases your risk of cancer. The CDC’s Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR) confirms PFAS can raise kidney cancer risk by up to 2 times in highly exposed groups.

Research in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute (2023) found a 30% higher risk of testicular cancer in men with elevated PFAS levels.

If you are suffering from any of the below, you are likely eligible for compensation:
