FILE NO. MT-03 Mass Torts / PFAS Contamination
"Forever chemicals" & water contamination

Lived near a site with contaminated drinking water?

PFAS ("forever chemicals") have been found in drinking water near industrial sites, military bases, and manufacturing plants across the U.S. People with long-term exposure have filed claims linking it to kidney cancer, testicular cancer, and other conditions. If that's your story, you may be entitled to compensation.

What the PFAS lawsuits are about

PFAS are a group of man-made chemicals used for decades in manufacturing, firefighting foam, and industrial processes. They don't break down naturally and have entered drinking water supplies near contaminated sites nationwide, sometimes for years before residents were notified.

People with long-term exposure through contaminated water are filing claims against the companies responsible for the contamination — not against their water utility or local municipality.

Who this typically applies to

Residents who lived near an industrial or manufacturing site, military installation, or known contamination zone, particularly where water testing has confirmed elevated PFAS levels.

You may qualify if:

  • You lived or worked near a known or suspected PFAS contamination site
  • Your exposure lasted a year or more
  • You were diagnosed with kidney cancer, testicular cancer, thyroid disease, or a related condition
  • Your exposure occurred before your diagnosis
Claims like this are governed by state-specific filing deadlines. Reviewing your case sooner preserves more options — there's no cost to check where you stand.

What a claim may cover

Every case is different — a network attorney will walk you through what applies to yours.

Medical costs

Past and ongoing treatment related to your diagnosis.

Lost income

Time away from work during treatment or recovery.

Pain & suffering

The physical and emotional impact of your diagnosis.

Common questions

Does this cost anything?

No. The case review is free, and if a network attorney takes your case, they're paid a percentage of any settlement or award — never a fee up front.

Am I suing my water utility?

No. These claims are typically filed against the manufacturers or industrial parties responsible for the contamination, not against a local water utility or municipality.

What if I'm not sure I qualify?

That's what the free review is for. Submit the form and a network attorney will confirm your eligibility based on your exposure history and diagnosis.

How long does a claim take?

Mass tort claims are typically resolved over months to a few years, depending on how the litigation proceeds. Your attorney will give you a realistic timeline once they've reviewed your case.
