New Johnsons Baby Powder Lawsuit FiledA new Johnsons baby powder lawsuit alleges that the manufacturers should have known about the serious and dangerous side effects associated with long term exposure to Johnsons baby powder.

The plaintiffs in this new Johnsons baby powder lawsuit have hired an attorney to file a lawsuit and a demand for a jury trial against the defendants for severe injuries that allegedly led to the death of the primary patient.

As a result, the plaintiff in the Johnsons baby powder lawsuit is the next of kin and representative of the estate of the deceased individual. The plaintiffs’ Johnsons baby powder lawsuit is suing for economic loss, injury to the person represented, wrongful death, survivorship and loss of services. The Johnsons baby powder lawsuit has been filed against Johnson & Johnson as well as Imerys Talc America Inc.

According to the Johnsons baby powder lawsuit, the decedent was diagnosed with a talcum powder related injury in California in 2008. The Johnsons baby powder lawsuit paperwork states that the affected decedent began using talcum powder products in 1981 through 2011, all of which were purchased in California.

The primary product used by the decedent, according to the lawsuit paperwork, was Johnson & Johnsons baby powder.

Consumers who have filed lawsuits say that the products are marketed as safe for regular use near the female genitals, but also that a rising number of women who engaged in these practices over the course of many years have developed cancer.

They believe that some of the particles inside the talc are getting inside the body and ultimately causing a cancer risk, something these patients allege they should have been told about well in advance.

The Johnsons baby powder lawsuit is claiming strict liability, failure to warn, defective manufacture and design, breach of express warranty, breach of implied warranty, negligence, fraud, civil conspiracy, loss of consortium, wrongful death, punitive damages and more.

Unfortunately, a growing number of surviving family members or estate representatives have come forward to file lawsuits against Johnson & Johnson or the makers of other consumer products that may have been tied to a serious medical condition on the part of the person who passed away.

Johnson & Johnsons baby powder has come under fire in recent years for alleged connections to the risk of serious cancers when used for the purposes of feminine hygiene.

Those women who have been diagnosed with cancer and have developed other side effects and problems may be eligible to pursue a lawsuit with the help of an experienced attorney.

Many of the patients who developed cancer after years or decades of using Johnsons baby powder argue that the connection between these two issues is strong enough that the manufacturer of the product should have warned about the danger.

In many product liability cases filed by those who have developed cancer or by family members who lost their loved ones, plaintiffs claim that the manufacturer is responsible for the injuries sustained.

The Johnsons Baby Powder Lawsuit is Case No. 3:18-CV-08684-FLW-LHG, filed in the United States District Court, District of New Jersey.
