What amount of money can I receive if my toxic hair relaxer claim is approved?

There are many factors that will affect the sum of money you can receive as compensation if your toxic hair relaxer claim is approved, such as your diagnosis, how severe and debilitating your disease is, and the number of manufacturers with which our attorneys will file your claim. Usually, the compensation you can receive for a toxic hair relaxer claim ranges between $400,000 and $1.75 million.

The amount of money you can receive for a claim is not fixed and depends on each case

Exposure to the endocrine-disrupting chemicals in hair relaxers was found to cause uterine cancer (endometrial cancer and uterine sarcoma) and ovarian cancer (serous and non-serous tumor), and these are the only diagnoses for which you can file a claim. Still, before filing a claim per se, our attorneys will have to review your case to determine whether you are entitled to financial compensation from the manufacturers, a fast and simple process that can take place over the phone. The amount of money eligible women can receive will depend on the following key factors and many others:

  • what disease they have
  • how severe their disease is
  • whether their disease prevents them from working
  • how much pain and distress their disease causes them
  • what stage their cancer was found in
  • the number of hair relaxer manufacturers involved
  • whether they developed more than one disease
  • how long they have used toxic hair relaxers

A strong toxic hair relaxer case can have a potential settlement value of between $400,000 and $1.75 million, depending on the above factors.
