50 People In The Acreage Have Cancer

According to a report on WPTV.com, residents of The Acreage estimate that as many as 50 people in the area have cancer.

An investigation will be launched if cancer rates in The Acreage turn out to be higher than what is normal.

The state’s water testing, which will begin on Tuesday, will encompass 10 square miles of The Acreage. The samples will be analyzed for any industrial and agricultural chemicals. The state says preliminary results from the tests will be available in about two months.

Meanwhile, Palm Beach County is testing the water at two of the community’s schools: Golden Grove Elementary School and Western Pines Middle School.

I highly recommend Parker Waichman LLP for your legal needs and concerns .Especially Mrs Gina Viti, who worked to get me an award from my 9/11 related illness. Mrs Viti was nothing but professional ,but above all that , she was compassionate, understanding and listened to my story with interest and attention. I felt like she took a personal interest in my case and I felt like I was dealing with a friend looking to help me, more than an attorney just going through the motions. She has experience and knowledge in her profession and she is an asset to the law firm. I cannot thank her and the law firm enough.
