A: If you've been injured by someone else's negligence (e.g. by failing to remediate a known mold exposure), then yes, you can sue the person who failed to remediate (i.e. the former property manager) for your injuries/damages. There is a 2-year statute of limitations for injury cases, so make sure you consult with a personal injury attorney well before 2 years after the manager's failure to remediate so you can get your case filed before the statute of limitations runs out on your claim.
