Johnson & Johnson Talcum Powder Lawsuit Lawyers

Are you familiar with the Johnson & Johnson talcum powder class-action lawsuits? Most recently, you may have read about Deane Berg of South Dakota, a physician's assistant who was diagnosed with stage III ovarian cancer. Her disease has been linked to her use of Johnson & Johnson products. This is an important women's health issue, one that can no longer be ignored.

For decades, hundreds of thousands of consumers have been exposing themselves to big pharma's talc-based products. These products include household-brand-name Johnson & Johnson's Shower to Shower and their extremely popular baby powder, as well. Over the decades, the brand became an icon within the American family home, a symbol for health, happiness, and new life. The soothing white powder became a standard, a part of a routine key to keeping your newborn bouncing babies content. Johnson & Johnson's Baby Powder commercials featured adorably chubby cheeks, heart-melting baby giggles, and music-box-style lullabies. These television commercials brimmed with visions of health and happiness. How could these products be dangerous?

Sadly, for years researchers and corporations have known the dangers of talcum powder products, but this information was largely withheld from the every-day consumer. Even Deane Berg, who worked in the medical field, was kept in the dark about the dangers of this mineral to women's health. For years, women's reproductive tracts have been exposed to talc, also known as magnesium silicate, through feminine hygiene products such as sanitary pads, forms of birth control including condoms, and elsewhere. Talc powder had been praised for its safety and for its effectiveness in controlling vaginal odors and feminine discomfort. Talc is also a listed ingredient in some makeups, foot powders, deodorant, and more. Today we are increasingly aware of its inflammatory effects and, therefore, its dangers.

Today, over one thousand consumers are suing Johnson & Johnson for product/pharmaceutical liability and, in the most heartbreaking of circumstances, wrongful death cases, as well. However, in order to be awarded the compensation that your family needs, you'll need top-notch legal representation. Giant pharmaceutical companies hire only the best and the brightest to protect their assets, so you'll need to be prepared.
