A number of lawsuits have been filed against manufacturers of feminine hygiene products that contain talcum powder because of the links to ovarian cancer. Juries have already awarded millions of dollars to consumers who developed cancer after using these products.
When you have questions about talcum powder lawsuits, now is the time to seek legal guidance.
These lawsuits involve the use of hygiene products made with talcum powder. This powder is manufactured from a substance known as talc that is mined from the earth. There is little doubt among researchers that talcum powder is carcinogenic.
Not everyone has a valid case for compensation against the makers of talcum powder products. It is a good idea to consult legal counsel for anyone living with ovarian cancer that has regularly used products containing talcum powder.
This exposure is not limited to using these products on a consumer basis. Some people encounter talc-based material in an industrial setting. Anyone exposed to talcum powder should consider speaking with a lawyer if they develop cancer.
In addition to those living with the consequences of these diseases, there is also the opportunity to file a lawsuit based on the loss of a loved one due to talc exposure. These lawsuits—known as wrongful death actions—provide surviving relatives with the opportunity to hold manufacturers accountable for failing to warn the public of the risks associated with their products.
Some people are concerned with the potential of joining a class action lawsuit only to lose control over their own case. Others might worry that joining a class action could limit their recovery. Victims in these cases have the right to file their own individual suit.
When you believe you have a case for compensation, speak to an attorney. These cases could provide you with a monetary award based on the extent of your illness.
I have dreamed about writing a book about personal injury law for years. In the past year, I have thought about
the project often. Clearly, I am a procrastinator.
