talcum powder wrongful death
Plaintiff’s Son Awarded $72 Million in Case against Johnson & Johnson
In an unprecedented move in St. Louis, Missouri, a jury found Johnson & Johnson liable in a civil suit concerning many of their products containing talcum powder this past Monday. At the center of the case, a man from Birmingham, Alabama spoke out again the well-known maker of personal care products. The victim he was fighting for was his mother, a woman who, at the age of 62, passed away from ovarian cancer. The lawsuit alleged that her cancer was linked to the use of Johnson & Johnson products, which she had used for decades.
