Talcum powder lawsuits

What the talcum powder lawsuits claim

People who used talc-based baby powder and other talc hygiene products for years have sued over cancer diagnoses. The lawsuits say long-term use is linked to ovarian cancer and to mesothelioma through asbestos contamination in talc, and that users were not warned.

Who may be able to take part

• You used talc-based powder regularly, often over many years
• You were later diagnosed with ovarian cancer or mesothelioma
• A close family member died after that kind of diagnosis and use

Only a lawyer can tell you whether you have a claim, and time limits vary by state.

What helps a law firm review your situation

Which products you used and roughly for how long, your diagnosis and its date, and where you were treated.

What these claims cover

Medical treatment, lost income, pain and suffering, and the effect on family life. No one can promise an outcome or an amount; every case is different.
