Were You Exposed to Firefighting Foam and Diagnosed with Cancer? You May Be Eligible for Compensation.
Aqueous Film-Forming Foam (AFFF) is a fire-suppressing foam used by firefighters, military personnel, and airport workers for decades. While effective for extinguishing flammable liquid fires, AFFF contains toxic chemicals known as PFAS — also called “forever chemicals” — that have been linked to serious health problems, including several types of cancer.
If you or a loved one were exposed to AFFF firefighting foam and have been diagnosed with cancer, you may qualify to file an AFFF lawsuit and pursue compensation for medical expenses, lost income, and emotional distress. Major manufacturers like 3M and DuPont are facing lawsuits for knowingly selling foam products with dangerous health risks and failing to warn users.
AFFF is a firefighting foam used to quickly suppress fuel fires — commonly found at airports, military bases, and industrial sites. The issue lies in its key ingredients: **PFAS (Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances)**, which are highly toxic and don’t break down naturally. These chemicals can accumulate in the human body and environment for years.
Studies have shown a strong link between PFAS exposure and the development of serious health conditions, including:
Kidney cancer
Testicular cancer
Prostate cancer
Bladder cancer
Liver damage
Thyroid disease
Immune system disorders
You may be eligible to file a firefighting foam lawsuit if you were regularly exposed to AFFF and later diagnosed with a qualifying illness. Our attorneys are representing:
Firefighters (career and volunteer)
Military personnel (especially U.S. Navy and Air Force)
Airport workers and emergency responders
Industrial fire safety employees
Residents living near military bases or contaminated water sources
AFFF lawsuits aim to hold chemical manufacturers accountable and recover damages for the victims. You may be entitled to compensation for:
Medical bills and treatment expenses
Lost wages and future income loss
Emotional distress and mental health support
Pain and suffering
Wrongful death (if a loved one passed away due to AFFF-related cancer)
3M, DuPont, Chemours, and other major chemical companies are facing thousands of lawsuits in federal court as part of a multidistrict litigation (MDL). Billions in potential settlements are expected as more evidence shows they were aware of PFAS dangers for years but continued selling AFFF to fire departments and military branches.
Our legal team is actively pursuing new AFFF claims. Even if you used the foam years ago, you may still qualify.
We offer free, confidential consultations and work on a contingency basis — you pay nothing unless we recover money for you. Let us help you take legal action and hold the right people accountable for your suffering.
