Hi Everyone:
 
I am seeking legal advice as my tenant told me yesterday that her 9 month old boy 's blood test for lead showing positive.
 
They had been living there since May.  The property was build 1930 and was renovated before I bought it. I did some work, like repainting the whole house, redone the floor, replaced the windows as well ( repainted the trim and molding) prior they moved in.
 
Before signing the contract, I gave them the pdf format of 'protectyourfamily from leadin your home_FDAbrochure', as well the lead disclosure form for them to sign.
 
At one time, they did say there were a few pieces of paint peeling off , and I offered to come back to fix it, which they said 'Not necessary'( via text message).
 
They left me a vm last night, which I did not hear it as I put my phone in mute -- so they went to find a hotel and stayed there.    I felt bad for the little boy so I offered to pay their stay for that hotel.
 
 
Now my questions:
 
1. Since I did do the lead disclosure, will I face a possible law suite ?
2. Am I obligate to pay their further hotel stay ?
3. How can I find out what the EBLL level is ? Per CT.GOV, if it is <20ug or kids over 6 year old,  a report should be sent to Healthy department but no action needed, unless it is great than 20ug( see below figure):, wonder if this is valid ?
Any inputs are apprciated.
 
 
I am seeking professional help from Landlord/Tenant law attoney now.  waiting for their response.....sign...
