New Orleans Law Firm Helps Johnson And Johnson Talcum Baby Powder Victims Recover Compensation

December 15, 2023 by Louis Gertler Last Modified: October 28, 2025

If you have been diagnosed with ovarian cancer or mesothelioma in the last year after using Johnson and Johnson Talcum Baby Powder products, the Gertler Law Firm will help you obtain financial compensation.

It is official: Johnson and Johnson’s famous Talcum Powder and another one of their products, Shower to Shower, have both been connected to serious cases of ovarian cancer and mesothelioma.

There is no undoing the damage and heartbreak either disease can cause to you and your family. With the help of New Orleans personal injury attorneys at the Gertler Law Firm, however, you may be eligible to recover financial compensation from Johnson and Johnson for the harm you have suffered and the medical expenses connected to your illness.

Do You Qualify For Compensation From Johnson And Johnson?

The three simple questions below will help you determine if you qualify for this significant compensation. If you have answered yes to all three, it is time to call (504) 581-6411 for experienced legal guidance in recovering the money you are owed for the cancer you have developed.

Have You Been Diagnosed With Ovarian Cancer Or Mesothelioma In The Past Year?

While there is now little doubt that Johnson and Johnson Baby Powder and Shower to Shower have been causing or contributing to cancers, including ovarian cancer, for years, only recently discovered cases are being considered for compensation.

As long as your diagnosis for either or both illnesses has occurred within the last year, even if you have had symptoms before then, you may qualify.

Have You Used Either Johnson And Johnson Baby Powder Or Shower To Shower Products?

The two Talcum powder products Johnson and Johnson has recalled for causing ovarian cancer and mesothelioma are the Baby Powder and Shower to Shower. If you have used either of these products on yourself, as an adult or as a child, or have used them on your own children, you may be eligible to sue for compensation.

While the diagnosis of your ovarian cancer or Mesothelioma must be recent, the use of either product does not need to be. Even if you used it or had it used on you decades ago, as long as it was one of the two products in question, Johnson and Johnson talcum Baby Powder or Shower to Shower, you may have grounds to file a lawsuit claiming financial compensation for either life-changing and life-threatening illness you suffer from.

Have You Had Zero Other Exposure To Asbestos?

The ingredient in both of Johnson and Johnson’s dangerous products that caused so many cases of Ovarian Cancer is likely to be the trace amounts of fine asbestos in them. Highly toxic and known for causing cancers, Asbestos is now banned in virtually all uses in the United States but was a popular tool for insulation and select other industrial uses in the past.

Unfortunately, however, if you are aware of any prior occupational or environmental exposure to asbestos besides the two Johnson and Johnson products, it could undermine your case. If their lawyers are able to prove one, it will be very difficult, if not impossible, to demonstrate the causal connection between your use of their product and the illnesses you are claiming compensation for.

Why Are Johnson And Johnson Talcum Baby Powder And Shower To Shower Products So Dangerous?

Compensation Details for Talcum Powder Cancers - Gertler Law FirmUnfortunately, for the hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of women who have been exposed to both these talcum powder products, they have been demonstrated to contribute greatly to the risk of ovarian cancer and mesothelioma.

Johnson and Johnson’s formula for both their talcum Baby Powder and Shower to Shower products contained enough Asbestos to be extremely carcinogenic to the human body, especially the delicate internal organs of the female reproductive system.

Worse still, ovarian cancer, in particular, is infamous for being hard to catch early, thus leading to a greater share of fatalities and more invasive and expensive treatments than most cancers. Both illnesses can be life-threatening, extremely disruptive, and debilitating. All of this adds up to a considerable cost, which Johnson and Johnson will take responsibility for and compensate you for.

What Compensation Can You Claim From Johnson And Johnson For Talcum Powder Cancers?

If you have answered yes to all three questions above, then a skilled and experienced personal injury attorney will be able to help you demand fair compensation from the giant multinational company responsible.

This financial compensation will include:

  • Medical costs associated with treatment, recovery, or care due to your ovarian cancer or mesothelioma.
  • Lost wages due to your illness or inability to work,
  • Compensation for the inability to provide assistance in the home,
  • Non-economic damages such as pain, suffering, trauma, and more.

How can you obtain the thousands of dollars you have every right to? Simple, call New Orleans personal injury lawsuit attorneys at The Gertler Law Firm.
