Understanding the Link Between Talc and Cancer
Women across the country have trusted talcum powder products for decades—until it was revealed that many of these products were contaminated with asbestos. If you or a loved one has been diagnosed with ovarian cancer or mesothelioma after using Johnson & Johnson’s talc, you may be entitled to compensation.
Corporate Negligence and Legal Battles
Internal documents show that Johnson & Johnson knew for decades about the potential contamination of their talc with asbestos, yet continued to market it as safe. In response to lawsuits, they created fake subsidiaries and filed for bankruptcy in an attempt to avoid paying fair compensation to victims.
List of Key Facts
- Over 38,000 lawsuits filed against Johnson & Johnson.
- Company proposed a $9 billion settlement to avoid jury trials.
- Many victims died while awaiting justice.
- Courts have rejected J&J’s fake-bankruptcy strategy.
