AFFF Foam Cancer Lawsuit Lawyers

Have you been exposed to AFFF foam? Also known as Aqueous Film Forming Foam or “firefighting foam,” AFFF foam is a firefighting suppressant often used by firefighters at airports to extinguish high-temperature fires, often those involving jet fuel or petroleum-based accelerants. AFFF foam contains harmful chemicals called PFAS that may cause cancer.

How to Qualify for an AFFF Lawsuit

You may qualify for an AFFF lawsuit if you meet the following criteria:

• Diagnosed with one of the following conditions:
  • Kidney cancer
  • Testicular cancer
  • Liver cancer
  • Thyroid cancer
  • Ulcerative colitis
• Lived or worked in an area with known PFAS contamination
• Were exposed to PFAS from AFFF on or after January 1, 1960

Property owners with land nearby airports or military facilities may also be affected if AFFF runoff has contaminated their water supply.

We believe Justice Counts and are committed to holding potentially negligent companies and manufacturers like 3M and Dupont responsible.

AFFF Foam Cancer Risk

AFFF has been used for more than 50 years in the United States. This firefighting foam has proven very effective at suppressing fires, but serious health risks are well-established.

Aqueous Film Forming Foam (AFFF) contains the chemicals perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) and perfluorooctanesulfonic acid (PFOS). These chemicals belong to a class of substances known as per- and polyfluoroalkyls (PFAS).

PFAS chemicals are known as “forever chemicals” because scientific research has indicated that once present in the body or environment, they last for an extremely long duration.

PFAS ­chemicals ­— such as those found in AFFF foam — are also known carcinogens, meaning they can cause cancer.

A recent study found that some firefighters have levels of PFAS in their blood roughly “three times higher” than the general population. Another study revealed significantly higher levels of PFAS chemicals in firefighters, as well.

PFAS as found in firefighting foam may cause the following types of cancers:

• Kidney cancer
• Testicular cancer
• Thyroid cancer
• Liver cancer
• Non-Hodgkins lymphoma
• Other types of lymphomas
• Pancreatic cancer
• Leukemia
• Neuroendocrine tumors
• Prostate cancer
• Breast cancer
• Ovarian cancer
• And potentially others…

If you or a loved one has been exposed to AFFF foam (firefighting foam) and been diagnosed with kidney or testicular cancer, you deserve justice — and you may be entitled to compensation.
