Baby Powder Cancer Lawsuit
Talcum powder is the primary ingredient in Baby Powder, a staple product of the American household.
Despite decades of claims that the product was both safe and effective, studies have shown that talcum powder and talc-based Baby Powder can put users at risk of life-threatening illnesses, including ovarian cancer and mesothelioma.
You’ve probably heard about Talcum Powder Lawsuits over the years, but with Johnson & Johnson’s failed attempt to dismiss the cases, a new Talcum Powder settlement is possible.

Talcum Powder Lawsuits could settle for a significant amount of money.
Our Talcum Powder Attorneys estimate that Talcum Powder Lawsuits could settle for anywhere between $100,000 and $1 million.
These estimates are by no means a guarantee of financial compensation for Talcum Powder Lawsuits.
They are only an estimation based on previous settlements for Talcum Powder Claims and the new $8.9 billion Talcum Powder settlement offer announced in April 2023.
The settlement has not yet been agreed to.
In 2020, Johnson and Johnson paid a settlement worth nearly $100 million for 1,000 Talcum Powder Lawsuits.
Also in 2020, 22 women were paid $2.12 billion to settle their Talcum Powder claims.
A talc powder lawsuit can take anywhere between around 1 year to 10+ years to settle. The time commitment for a talc lawsuit varies greatly from case-to-case.
Every state has a statute of limitations greater than one year, but the statute of limitations varies by state.
Contact a talc powder cancer lawyer for a free case evaluation to find out whether you meet the statute of limitations.
If you previously or currently use talc powder-based products and have been subsequently diagnosed with ovarian cancer, mesothelioma, or other forms of cancer, you may be eligible to file a Talcum Powder Lawsuit.
Yes.
Baby powder’s primary ingredient is talcum powder, a substance that has been linked to a number of adverse health effects including cancer.
The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) classifies asbestos contaminated talcum powder as “carcinogenic to humans”. The IARC classifies genital talcum powder use as “possibly carcinogenic to humans.”
It is strongly encouraged that you do NOT use talcum powder or related products on your genital area.
Johnson & Johnson Talcum Powder will not be available starting in 2023.

#1 Asbestosis Lawyer: File an Asbestosis Lawsuit Today!
In regards to the increasing usage of the Texas-Two step bankruptcy maneuver by large corporations to get out of the lawsuits, Congress is holding hearings with the intent to possibly pass legislation limiting the use of the strategy.
To carry out the Texas Two-Step method, a company creates a new legal entity and relocates all of its tort-related obligations to that entity. The catch is only a small portion of the parent company’s assets are transferred to that new entity, and the new shell company files for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. This procedure stirs controversy as it enables companies to evade their legal accountabilities.
The Senate Judiciary Committee brought forth Erik Haas, the CEO of Johnson & Johnson, and berated him for the company’s incorrect use of the Texas-Two step method.
Senator Dick Durbin (D-IL) stated that Title 11 Bankruptcy was created to help a company restart fresh and avoid crushing debt. In the case of Johnson & Johnson, Durbin said the company faced no crushing debt and instead was operating smoothly and making profits. He argued J&J abused this bill to increase its power.
Dr. Jacqueline Moline, a medical researcher who has testified in numerous cases alleging that Johnson & Johnson talc products cause cancer, is seeking the dismissal of a lawsuit filed by J&J against her.
J&J’s lawsuit claims that her 2019 study linking cosmetic talc products to cancer was fraudulent and harmed the company’s reputation.
Dr. Moline argues that her research is sound and protected by free speech rights under the First Amendment.
J&J’s subsidiary, LTL Management, sued Dr. Moline and three other researchers, accusing them of publishing fraudulent research.
J&J claims that Dr. Moline’s study had flaws and that some study participants had additional asbestos exposure not related to talc products.
Dr. Moline defends her study, stating that it properly disclosed patient information and a potential conflict of interest.
J&J has tried to resolve the talc litigation by putting LTL Management in bankruptcy and offering a settlement of $8.9 billion to end all talc-related lawsuits.
However, court rulings have hindered this process, and J&J is appealing those decisions.
Due to the dismissal of LTL’s bankruptcy, these lawsuits can now resume, and J&J has stopped selling talc-based Baby Powder in response to the legal challenges and public perception issues surrounding its talc products.
If you or a loved one used Talcum Powder and subsequently developed ovarian cancer or mesothelioma, you may be eligible to file a Talcum Powder Lawsuit.

After having its second bankruptcy filing dismissed, Johnson & Johnson is being accused of trying to delay the Talcum Powder litigation even more as it attempts to challenge an expert testimony approved over two years ago.
Despite the efforts of J&J to stay the trial once again, Judge Shipp, who is presiding over the litigation, is determined to speed up trial processes and has recently issued court orders to increase efficiency and extend representation.
In one order, Judge Shiff required all attorneys who represent plaintiffs who died during the stay period to serve a motion to substitute a proper party or notify the court why a proper party substitute is not to be selected. This must be done within 180 days.
In another order, Judge Shiff created a process for filing Plaintiff Profile Forms (PPFs). PPFs allow for plaintiffs to consolidate important information and medical records, essentially making key case information easily accessible by the courts.
A bankruptcy judge in New Jersey officially dismissed 3M’s second attempt at filing for bankruptcy with the Texas-two step strategy.
This means that the stay on the MDL, which temporarily halted all of the litigation’s proceedings, has been lifted, allowing for pretrial processes to resume. Now that the litigation can move forward, it is expected that there will be an increase in filings for the Talcum lawsuit.

Johnson & Johnson’s attempt to push its subsidiary (LTL Management LLC) into bankruptcy in order to resolve the Talcum Powder Lawsuits has been struck down by US Bankruptcy Judge Michael Kaplan.
This is J&J’s second attempt at resolving the Talcum Powder Litigation through bankruptcy, and they plan to appeal this decision again.
In a similar effort to deflect some of the liabilities from the lawsuit, Georgia-Pacific (another defendant in the Talcum Powder Lawsuit) completed a maneuver known as the Texas two-step, which involves splitting a company into two, diverting all of the legal liability into the new entity, and putting that entity into bankruptcy.
By filing for bankruptcy, all lawsuits against a company are halted, preventing harmed individuals from receiving proper compensation.
This attempt was approved by a 3-judge panel on June 20.
Since this strategic maneuver was approved by an initial judicial panel, more than 20 states and Washington, D.C. have joined an amicus brief urging the 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals to overturn this decision.
Their reasoning is that this maneuver exploits bankruptcy laws and allows Georgia-Pacific to continue operating without facing any liability for the damage they caused, setting a precedent for other companies facing mass tort lawsuits to manipulate bankruptcy laws to evade tort claims.
Judges across the country seem to have different opinions of the Texas-two step; the 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals rejected Johnson & Johnson’s attempt in this maneuver, and the 7th Circuit Court is still deciding whether to allow 3M to go through with this attempt.

A California jury awarded Emory Hernandez Valadez $18.8 million after he claimed that Johnson & Johnson’s (J&J) baby powder caused him to develop mesothelioma, a deadly cancer.
This verdict is significant as J&J is facing multiple similar cases related to its talcum-based products in bankruptcy court in the US.
Hernandez filed a lawsuit against J&J in California state court seeking compensation for medical expenses and suffering due to cancer, alleging that prolonged use of J&J’s talc led to mesothelioma.
This trial was the first talc-related case J&J faced in nearly two years.
Many plaintiffs have sued J&J, alleging that talc products caused ovarian cancer and mesothelioma due to asbestos contamination.
J&J’s subsidiary, LTL Management, filed for bankruptcy and proposed a $8.9 billion settlement for over 38,000 lawsuits to prevent new cases from arising.
Hernandez’s trial was allowed to proceed due to his limited life expectancy from the rare form of mesothelioma he suffers from, while most other litigation is halted during bankruptcy proceedings.

During a trial involving a plaintiff who claims that Johnson & Johnson’s talcum powder caused their cancer, Dr. Ed Kuffner, the Chief Medical Officer of the company, testified about the recall of their talc products.
The plaintiff in this case, Emory Hernandez, was diagnosed with malignant pericardial mesothelioma, a disease linked to asbestos contamination.
While most talc cases are on hold due to J&J’s subsidiary’s bankruptcy, Hernandez’s case is proceeding because of their terminal condition.
Dr. Kuffner provided insights into J&J’s response to the FDA’s report. The FDA suggested a recall during an initial call, but J&J implemented it two days later.
The company’s official announcement cited caution as the reason for the recall. However, Dr. Kuffner carefully avoided confirming the validity of the FDA’s testing or the recall itself.
When asked about the FDA’s findings, he used rhetoric to imply uncertainty. He also admitted that J&J did not test any of the 38,000 recalled bottles of talcum powder.

As the $8.9 billion talc settlement receives backlash from the plaintiffs, it is set to face its second bankruptcy test later this week. The bankruptcy test will determine if the J&J subsidiary company is in sufficient financial distress to file for bankruptcy, which would resolve much of J&J’s financial issues related to the lawsuit.
J&J’s subsidiary company, LTL Management, initially filed for bankruptcy in April 2023, but this was dismissed after a U.S. Appeals Court ruled the company was not struggling enough to declare bankruptcy.
This second attempt at filing for bankruptcy will be approved or denied this week. Amid this waiting period, both the plaintiffs and the U.S. Justice Department’s bankruptcy watchdog have called for its dismissal, saying LTL’s bankruptcy filing is an abuse of U.S. bankruptcy law.
U.S. bankruptcy law can shield debtors from lawsuits, halting cases against them and giving them time to reorganize in bankruptcy. However, bankruptcy judges do not always extend those protections to the subsidiaries’ parent companies.

Johnson & Johnson (J&J) is facing its first trial in nearly two years over claims that asbestos in its baby powder and talc products causes cancer.
The plaintiff, a 24-year-old with mesothelioma, alleges that his cancer was caused by exposure to J&J’s talc products since childhood. J&J denies that its talc contains asbestos or causes cancer.
J&J has filed for bankruptcy and proposed a $8.9 billion settlement to resolve over 38,000 lawsuits. The trial’s outcome may impact other plaintiffs’ decisions to join the settlement.
J&J and its subsidiary argue that bankruptcy provides a more fair and efficient way to handle settlements. The company has faced talc-related verdicts, settlements, and legal fees totaling around $4.5 billion.

Johnson & Johnson’s insolvent talc division defended its second Chapter 11 filing against challenges from individuals claiming injury from talc. In a response submitted to a New Jersey bankruptcy court, the subsidiary in question argued that the present case was different from the previous filing and highlighted the company’s commitment of $8.9 billion from J&J, the largest ever settlement in a mass tort bankruptcy case. The subsidiary seemed to imply that the magnitude of the settlement alone should be considered evidence of fairness.
J&J emphasized that this current commitment was unprecedented, exceeding the amount pledged in the initial case by more than fourfold, insinuating that this should be seen as an indicator of fairness. Furthermore, J&J portrayed that it had garnered support from numerous law firms representing over 60,000 claimants, suggesting that the opposing plaintiffs were in the minority. However, these assertions are unlikely to be substantiated by the facts.

The Talcum Powder Lawsuit is ongoing, and our Talcum Powder Lawyers are speaking to potential clients about their eligibility.
There have been multiple developments in the Talc Powder Lawsuit this month.
While the Johnson & Johnson subsidiary’s bankruptcy filing halted most of the Talcum Baby Powder lawsuits, one case remains active and is set to go to court. Jury selection for this case started on May 22 in California, and it marks the first trial related to Johnson & Johnson Talcum Baby Powder since the subsidiary company filed bankruptcy in 2021.
The lawsuit claims Johnson & Johnson Talcum Baby Powder contained asbestos that caused a 24 year-old man to develop mesothelioma, a type of malignant cancer that grows in lung, chest, and abdominal tissues. The case also involves six retailers who sold the baby powder in their stores. This specific case was approved to go to trial despite the bankruptcy filing because the plaintiff has a severe malignant tumor, and there are fears he will die before a settlement is reached. Cases with similar circumstances have the potential to be approved for an expedited trial as well.
In regard to the bankruptcy case involving LTL Management LLC, the subsidiary of J&J that is being used to shed Talc liabilities, a dispute has risen.
The issue revolves around the suggested selection of Randi Ellis, a prominent figure in mass tort multidistrict litigations (MDLs), to serve as a future claims representative. Ellis previously held this position in the first bankruptcy case, but plaintiffs’ lawyers are now raising objections to her reappointment due to a significant conflict of interest.
It has come to light that Ms. Ellis was involved with the legal team employed by J&J in formulating the second bankruptcy and reorganization plan.

The discussions over Johnson & Johnson’s $8.9 billion settlement offer are ongoing. A 75% majority of plaintiffs lawyers are needed in order to agree to and accept the settlement, which would signal the end of the Talcum Powder Litigation. There are arguments for and against accepting the settlement, and whether to let LTL Management go through with bankruptcy.
Bankruptcy Judge Kaplan has scheduled a June hearing to make a final decision on the J&J subsidiary’s bankruptcy.
If allowed to go forward with the bankruptcy and 75% of plaintiffs lawyers agree to the settlement offer, a Talc Trust would be created that is funded by $12.08 billion over 25 years.
As of now, the Talc Litigation is paused but new Talcum Powder Lawsuits are able to be filed.

While there has been a $9 billion settlement offer made by J&J, this effort to resolve the Talcum Powder Lawsuit claims has been shrouded in controversy. In order to reduce the financial impact of the Talcum Powder Lawsuit, Johnson & Johnson shifted its talc liabilities onto a subsidiary company called LTL Management LLC. This subsidiary company has filed for Chapter 11 Bankruptcy.
In bankruptcy court, the judge ruled that Johnson & Johnson must face the Talcum Powder Lawsuits, but J&J is making another push to shed litigation liabilities to its subsidiary company.
Trials have been paused for the time being, but new Talcum Powder cases are able to be filed and consolidated into the Talcum Powder MDL.
Plaintiffs lawyers are working out whether to agree to the settlement and bankruptcy claim. A majority of the plaintiffs counsel is needed to approve of the bankruptcy strategy to accept the settlement offer and the strategy J&J has chosen. If J&J is allowed to file bankruptcy and it is approved by a majority of plaintiffs counsel, it will signal the end of the litigation and no more talc lawsuits will be able be filed.

Talcum powder is made from talc, a naturally occurring mineral composed of magnesium, silicon, oxygen, and hydrogen. Talc is used in several cosmetics and baby powder.
Links have been made between talcum powder and ovarian cancer, which has led to thousands of talcum powder lawsuit cases.
Talcum powder particles are so small and lightweight that many people inhale the powder unknowingly. Talc particles can get stuck in the body, damaging the lungs and other organs over time.
Lawyers and medical professionals are currently investigating talcum powder for causing ovarian cancer and mesothelioma.
If you’ve been diagnosed with ovarian cancer or mesothelioma and used a talc product, you may be eligible to file a talcum powder lawsuit.

People have used talcum powder around the world for centuries. It is not exclusive to any industry or brand, but is used in cosmetics, baby powder, and several other consumer products.
Talcum powder is most suitable as a drying agent, and some users even treat it as an offhand tool by washing their hair with it or keeping surfaces dry.
Talcum powder is used most often in the following products:
Johnson & Johnson have announced that they will stop selling talc based baby powder globally in 2023.
Talcum powder has been a main ingredient to baby powder for decades up until the recent medical, scientific and legal scrutiny of late. In fact, the physical properties of talcum powder make it an alternative to brand name baby powder on its own.
The well-known talc based baby powder is made by Johnson & Johnson, a product they’ve sold for over 100 years.
Controversy has surrounded Johnson & Johnson baby powder after thousands of its users have claimed that the powder caused them to develop adverse health effects such as ovarian cancer and mesothelioma. Researchers believe these injuries to be caused by the talcum powder.
Talc companies will market the mineral as “pure” or “organic” but fail to ensure the quality of their product.
As a result, some talcum powder contains harmful impurities, namely asbestos, a known carcinogen. Inhalation of asbestos can damage the lungs over time and lead to fatal complications.
If you’ve noticed a change in your respiratory health after using baby powder, call a talcum powder lawyer as soon as possible.
Talcum Powder and Talc Particles increase the risk of ovarian cancer, mesothelioma, and other serious health problems. Those who are using talcum powder products as a genital powder have an increased risk to experience several serious health problems.
Talcum powder particles are so small and mobile that they can enter the body without the person knowing.
The particles are not easily filtered, thus disrupting the body’s natural processes and damaging internal organs.
Health problems related to Talcum Powder use include:
The side effects of talcum powder include:
Most side effects are more common in infants than in adults.
While some of these symptoms appear to be mild, they may be indicative of a more serious illness, especially respiratory symptoms. If you start to experience side effects, it’s recommended you avoid talcum powder, contact a doctor and a talcum powder lawyer.
Ovarian cancer is rare but has been linked to using talcum powder products on or near the vagina. Epithelial ovarian cancer, the most common type of ovarian cancer, has been diagnosed in several women who have used Johnson and Johnson’s baby powder products.
Studies suggest that women who use baby powder in this way have a 30% increased risk of being diagnosed with ovarian cancer.
Similar to the respiration problems caused by talcum powder, the particles stay trapped in the ovaries and damage the cells until cancer forms.
Ovarian cancer symptoms include:
The risk of developing ovarian cancer increases with age.
If you’re currently using baby powder or another talc product in the genital area, consider the risks before continuing. Genital powder use has been specifically linked to an increased risk of ovarian cancer.
Talcum Powder Ovarian Cancer Lawsuits have been filed on behalf of women diagnosed with ovarian cancer after using talcum powder. Contact an experienced Talcum Powder Lawyer to handle your case.
As early as the 1970s, scientists began looking at the connection between the dusting of female genitals with talcum powder and ovarian cancer.
Based on the marketing of these products for use on babies and as a feminine ritual, most people assume that such a common household item is safe to use. It is imperative that women are warned about the risk of using talcum powder in their daily feminine hygiene routine.
Increasing evidence suggests that this staple of bathrooms and nurseries for generations may be linked to ovarian cancer.
A recent study shows that women who commonly apply talc products to the genital area have a 33% increased chance of developing cancer.
Mesothelioma is a lung condition caused by inhaling asbestos and asbestos fibers. The main characteristic of mesothelioma is fluid buildup on the lining of the lungs.
Asbestos is used in some insulations, floor tiles, and old machinery. Sometimes, however, talcum powder contains small amounts of asbestos that may be overlooked by manufacturers.
Baby powder labels omit any warnings that the product may contain asbestos.
Mesothelioma symptoms include:
It’s common for these symptoms not to appear for decades. Your doctor can perform x-rays, blood tests, and biopsies to test for mesothelioma.
While the connection between asbestos and mesothelioma is well-established, the controversy regarding mesothelioma and talcum powder focuses on which brands have a defective product.
If a specific brand of talcum powder has caused you or someone you know to be injured, contact a talcum powder lawyer as soon as possible.
If you habitually used talcum powder and subsequently developed mesothelioma, you may want to contact a mesothelioma lawyer to discuss the possibility of filing a Baby Powder mesothelioma lawsuit.
Johnson & Johnson is the primary seller of talcum powder based baby powder and is facing lawsuits from women across the country who have developed ovarian cancer and other health conditions.
Our Talcum Powder Attorneys estimate that Talcum Powder Lawsuits could settle for anywhere between $100,000 and $1 million.
These estimates are by no means a guarantee of financial compensation for Talcum Powder Lawsuits. They are only an estimation based on previous settlements for Talcum Powder claims.
In 2020, Johnson and Johnson paid a settlement worth nearly $100 million for 1,000 Talcum Powder Lawsuits. Also in 2020, 22 women were paid $2.12 billion to settle their Talcum Powder claims.
