On this page, we’ll discuss an overview of the AFFF Lymphoma Lawsuit, average AFFF Lawsuit settlement amounts, who qualifies to file an AFFF lawsuit, and much more.
Aqueous film forming foam (AFFF) is a type of firefighting foam developed by 3M and the US Navy that was used for decades to extinguish highly flammable liquid fires.
AFFF firefighting foam contains PFAS chemicals — also known as forever chemicals — which have been linked to numerous types of cancer, including lymphoma, and other serious health risks.
The use of aqueous film forming foam (AFFF) has been phased out over the years, but many people have suffered from exposure to PFAS in firefighting foam products.
AFFF firefighting foam lawsuits are being filed across the country by individuals who’ve suffered from exposure.
Current AFFF Lawsuits and pending AFFF Lawsuits are being consolidated into multidistrict litigation (MDL).
If you or a loved one have been diagnosed with lymphoma, other types of cancer, or any other related health problems, you may be eligible to file an AFFF firefighting foam lawsuit.

Lymphoma is among the potential health risks of exposure to PFAS-containing AFFF firefighting foam.
Researchers have found that exposure to AFFF firefighting foam leads to an increased risk of lymphoma.
A study published in the journal Environmental Health Perspectives linked exposure to PFAS to an increased risk for lymphoma.
In the study, scientists observed a notably elevated risk of lymphoma, prostate cancer, and various other cancer types following exposure to PFAS, a common component of AFFF foam.
The investigation centered on the incidence of cancer diagnoses within a New Hampshire town where residents had experienced substantial PFAS exposure through contaminated drinking water.
Chemical manufacturers and the U.S. Navy, who first approved AFFF firefighting foam for use, knew about its toxic effects for decades.
Urged by the Environmental Protection Agency, the U.S. Department of Defense finally submitted an official warning stating that the dangerous chemicals in AFFF present an increased risk for serious health problems and environmental contamination.
In a number of research studies, PFAS have been linked to an increased risk for cancer and other serious health problems.
With the number of chemicals used in firefighting foam, the health impacts of them are widespread.
The health of airport firefighters, military firefighters, chemical plant workers, and workers who transport and manufacture firefighting foam is especially at risk.
Studies on the links between AFFF exposure and health problems include the following:
As mentioned previously, AFFF exposure has been linked to an increased risk for cancer diagnosis and other health problems.
Cancers that have been associated with PFAS chemicals include:
Other health problems associated with PFAS chemicals include:
Firefighting foam cancer lawsuits aim to hold manufacturers of AFFF accountable for their failure to adequately warn users about the health risks associated with firefighting foam products.
Plaintiffs argue that manufacturers were aware of the potential dangers but failed to disclose these risks.
With thousands of AFFF lawsuits filed against manufacturers, a multidistrict litigation (MDL) has been formed in the US District Court for the District of South Carolina.
The South Carolina federal court handles all current and pending AFFF Lawsuits filed by individuals.
Victims of PFAS exposure — including those who developed cancer or other health issues — are seeking compensation for the damages they suffered.
Damages in AFFF lawsuits may include medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other losses incurred as a result of their exposure.
AFFF lawsuits have drawn attention to the widespread presence of PFAS in various industries and products.
They may contribute to increased regulatory oversight and stricter guidelines on PFAS use and disposal.
The ongoing AFFF cancer lawsuits have several defendants, such as manufacturers and distributors of AFFF and related products.
These companies are facing legal action for their alleged roles in the widespread exposure to PFAS and the health consequences that have followed.
AFFF manufacturers named in the AFFF MDL include:
No settlements have been reached for individual toxic firefighting foam lawsuits.
However, lawyers estimate that AFFF Lawsuit settlement amounts could range from between $100,000 and $300,000 depending on the circumstances and facts of an individual case.
These estimates are by no means a guarantee of compensation in the AFFF Lawsuit, they are merely projections based on prior mass tort cases.
As the cases proceed, we will provide a more accurate settlement amount.

No, there is not an AFFF Class Action Lawsuit for individuals exposed to firefighting foam who have developed health problems.
Rather, these AFFF Lawsuits are consolidated into multidistrict litigation (MDL).
MDL is a special federal legal procedure that allows cases containing similar facts and circumstances to be consolidated into a single district court for consistency of decision-making and streamlining of the litigation.
MDL is different from a class action.
In an MDL, plaintiffs retain their individuality and receive compensation determined by their circumstances, injuries, and damages.
In a class action, claimants receive the same settlement amount regardless of their individual circumstances or damages.
Many law firms use the terms “AFFF Class Action Lawsuit” or “AFFF Class Action MDL” to describe the AFFF MDL.
Aqueous Film Forming Foam (AFFF) contains PFAS (Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances), which have been linked to various health problems.
Exposure to AFFF and its constituents can lead to:
Local governments and water agencies have been filing AFFF Lawsuits against firefighting foam manufacturers for PFAS contamination in waterways.
These lawsuits are ongoing, but a preliminary $10.3 billion settlement has been reached to resolve a significant amount of the municipal water contamination cases.
