Talc Products Containing Asbestos Can Kill You

Talc is a mineral in many products, including baby powder and cosmetics. When it is mined, it may also contain asbestos — a mineral that causes cancer. Asbestos triggers mesothelioma, an aggressive cancer that affects the linings of your lungs, abdomen, heart, and testicles. Asbestos is also found in talcum powder.

 

The manufacturers knew their products were contaminated, but didn’t tell you or make efforts to limit your risk. Many large companies are being sued, including: Estée Lauder, L'Oréal, Colgate-Palmolive, Sanofi, Vanderbilt Minerals, and Dynarex.

Cases Are Currently Being Evaluated & Compensation May Be Available

We have helped more than 35,000 clients deal with life-threatening cancers. We’ve won billions of dollars for them in verdicts and settlements.

 

If you used talc, and are suffering from mesothelioma, you may be eligible for compensation. Compensation may encompass your medical expenses, as well as compensation for any pain and suffering. Additionally, you may be entitled to financial remuneration for any loss of earnings and future lost income.
