Dark Waters, the true life story of Robert Bilott.

Robert Bilott was portrayed by Mark Ruffalo in Dark Waters.

Robert is an outstanding environmental lawyer from the United States. He is known for the lawsuits against DuPont on behalf of plaintiffs from West Virginia.

Robert has uncovered the severe global health effects of “forever chemicals” known as PFAS, which are today found everywhere, including in the blood of almost every human being. He has prevailed in an ongoing legal battle against the chemical giant DuPont, which has lasted more than two decades. Through that work, Bilott has secured over 1 billion US dollars in benefits for tens of thousands of people who had been drinking contaminated water. His legal battle has inspired people around the world to demand an end to the use of these toxic chemicals.
