In July 2018, Johnson & Johnson was ordered to pay 22 women with ovarian cancer over $4 billion in damages. It was believed that their cancer came from decades of using Johnson & Johnson baby powder near their genital area. Even though there were studies linking its products to cancer, and its executives were aware of the health risks, Johnson & Johnson knowingly produced and sold its powder products for over 40 years. There are numerous victims who have been diagnosed with ovarian cancer. If you are one of those victims, you should consult with an injury attorney to see if you qualify for compensation.
Even if you were diagnosed with cancer a few years ago, you may still be eligible. If the diagnosis was less than 10 years ago then you may still be eligible. There are other factors in determining your eligibility so it’s best to consult with an injury attorney to see if you have a good case.
There isn’t an exact length of time of use that makes you eligible for compensation.
