PFAS Lawsuits:

Holding Polluters Accountable for “Forever Chemical” Contamination

What Are PFAS Chemicals?

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, or PFAS, are a group of synthetic chemicals used for decades in industrial and consumer products because of their resistance to heat, oil, water, and stains. They are commonly found in:

  • Firefighting foam (AFFF) used by firefighters and the military

  • Non-stick cookware (like Teflon)

  • Water-resistant clothing and textiles

  • Food packaging and fast-food wrappers

  • Industrial manufacturing waste

Because PFAS do not break down naturally, they are often referred to as “forever chemicals.” Over time, they accumulate in soil, water, and the human body — leading to widespread contamination across the United States.

Health Risks Linked to PFAS Exposure

Extensive research has linked PFAS exposure to a number of serious and life-altering health conditions, including:

  • Kidney cancer

  • Testicular cancer

  • Thyroid disease

  • Liver damage

  • Immune system suppression

  • High cholesterol and hypertension

  • Reproductive and developmental issues

PFAS exposure has also been shown to interfere with hormone function and immune response — posing particular risks to pregnant women, infants, and children.

How PFAS Exposure Happens

PFAS exposure can occur through multiple pathways:

  • Drinking contaminated water: Millions of Americans have PFAS in their municipal or well water, especially near industrial plants or military bases.

  • Occupational exposure: Firefighters, military personnel, and industrial workers are often exposed through firefighting foam or manufacturing processes.

  • Consumer products: Everyday items like cookware, stain-resistant carpets, and food packaging can release PFAS into the body over time.

Communities near chemical manufacturing sites, airports, and military installations are especially at risk.

Legal Action Against PFAS Manufacturers

Thousands of lawsuits have been filed against major chemical manufacturers — including 3M, DuPont, and Chemours — alleging that they knew for decades that PFAS chemicals were toxic but failed to warn the public.

These lawsuits seek to hold corporations accountable for:

  • Polluting drinking water supplies

  • Concealing internal research about PFAS toxicity

  • Continuing to sell products containing PFAS despite known health risks

Recent legal actions have resulted in multi-billion-dollar settlements for contaminated water systems, and litigation continues for individuals and communities suffering personal injury and property damage.

Our Commitment to PFAS Victims

Our firm represents individuals, families, and communities harmed by toxic chemical exposure.

We have the resources and litigation experience to take on the largest chemical manufacturers in the country and pursue justice for those impacted by PFAS contamination.

We handle PFAS cases on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay nothing unless we win compensation for you.

Who May Qualify for a PFAS Lawsuit

You may be eligible to file a PFAS lawsuit if you:

  • Worked with or around firefighting foam or PFAS-containing chemicals

  • Lived near a contaminated military base, industrial facility, or airport

  • Have been diagnosed with cancer, thyroid disease, or another PFAS-linked illness

  • Had your drinking water tested and found to contain PFAS

Our firm is currently reviewing claims from firefighters, military veterans, industrial workers, and residents of contaminated communities nationwide.

Potential Compensation in PFAS Lawsuits

If you or your community has been affected by PFAS contamination, you may be entitled to compensation for:

  • Medical costs and long-term health monitoring

  • Lost wages and loss of earning capacity

  • Pain, suffering, and emotional distress

  • Property value loss due to contaminated water

  • Punitive damages against negligent corporations
