At A Glance

This Alert Affects:
Firefighters who were exposed to aqueous film-forming foam (AFFF) on the job and developed cancer, thyroid disease or ulcerative colitis.
What’s Going On?
Lawsuits are being filed alleging AFFF manufacturers knowingly sold toxic firefighting foam and should be responsible for the harm firefighters suffered as a result. Attorneys working with ClassAction.org are now offering to speak, free of charge, to firefighters (and family members acting on their behalf) who want to learn more about their rights.
How Could a Lawsuit Help Me?
A lawsuit could provide compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, loss of earning capacity, pain and suffering, funeral expenses and more.
Does It Cost Anything to Speak to Someone?
It’s completely free, and you’re under no obligation to take legal action after speaking to someone about your rights.
