Individuals such as firefighters, military firefighters, chemical plant workers, and others who have been exposed to Aqueous Film-Forming Foam (AFFF Firefighting Foam) may be at risk for serious health issues.
AFFF has been used for many years to put out fires caused by flammable liquids and gasses. Although it’s effective, AFFF contains cancer-causing PFAS chemicals.
Governments are taking steps to eliminate PFAS and phase out the use of firefighting foam. Many people who used or were exposed to AFFF at work or in their communities are now facing health complications from PFAS exposure.
They were assured that AFFF Firefighting Foam was safe, but now they are grappling with health problems and medical expenses due to PFAS exposure.
Firefighting Foam Cancer Lawsuits are being filed on behalf of victims suffering from exposure to PFAS chemicals. Several pending AFFF Lawsuits and current AFFF Lawsuits are being consolidated into the AFFF MDL.
If you or a loved one have suffered from exposure to firefighting foam, receiving a cancer diagnosis or other major health condition, you may qualify to file an AFFF Lawsuit.

Aqueous Film-Forming Foam (AFFF) is a type of firefighting foam used to extinguish flammable liquid and gas fires. AFFF Firefighting Foam works by creating a barrier or “film” on top of the burning liquid, smothering the fire and preventing re-ignition.
AFFF has been in use for several decades and is widely used in various settings including airports, oil refineries, chemical plants, and military bases.
AFFF is made of a combination of surfactants, solvents, and other chemical compounds, including perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). PFAS are also known as “forever chemicals” because they do not break down and persist in the environment and in human blood indefinitely.
PFAS chemicals used in AFFF firefighting foam have been found to be carcinogens.
Studies have shown that certain PFAS chemicals, such as PFOA and PFOS, can increase the risk of certain cancers. A study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association found a statistically significant association between PFOA exposure and an increased risk of kidney cancer, testicular cancer, and ulcerative colitis. Another study published in the International Journal of Cancer found a positive association between PFOS exposure and breast cancer.
The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has classified PFOA as a possible carcinogen, and PFOS as possibly carcinogenic to humans. In addition, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has issued a health advisory for PFOA and PFOS, stating that long-term exposure to these chemicals above certain levels could be harmful to human health.
Overall, the evidence linking PFAS exposure to cancer is concerning, and further research is needed to fully understand the potential health effects of these chemicals.
There are three main types of aqueous film forming foam (firefighting foam). The different types of firefighting foam were created by different companies and used for years.
According to the Interstate Technology Regulatory Council, the three main types of firefighting foam used in the United States include:
Firefighting foam exposure through groundwater is a significant public health concern. PFAS are known to be highly persistent in the environment and can leach into groundwater, affecting the water supply for communities near airports, military bases, and chemical plants where the foam has been used.
The dangers of PFAS-contaminated water are particularly concerning for pregnant women, young children, and communities that rely on well water.
In response to the potential health risks posed by PFAS-contaminated groundwater, government agencies, communities, and private organizations are taking steps to halt water contamination from firefighting foam and PFAS.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has established an action plan to address PFAS in the environment, which includes efforts to monitor and reduce PFAS releases into groundwater, as well as establish national drinking water standards for PFAS. Additionally, the U.S. Department of Defense is working to phase out the use of PFAS-containing firefighting foam and to address PFAS contamination at military installations.
Communities near contaminated sites are also taking action to address PFAS-contaminated groundwater by advocating for clean-up efforts and filing lawsuits against AFFF manufacturers:
The city of Stuart, Florida filed suit against 3M for groundwater contamination from AFFF firefighting foam in 2018, and an MDL was formed. The following states, cities and municipal agencies have also joined lawsuits against AFFF manufacturers:
If you or a loved one have been exposed to PFAS from AFFF Firefighting Foam and were subsequently diagnosed with related injuries or complications, you could be eligible for compensation through an AFFF lawsuit.

Prior mass tort cases for exposure to PFAS chemicals have been significant, and with the severity of health problems linked to firefighting foam, our law firm expects the AFFF settlement to promptly compensate people for the injuries suffered.
