Exposed to AFFF firefighting foam? You may qualify for a free case review.
Thousands of firefighters, military service members, and industrial workers were regularly exposed to AFFF (aqueous film-forming foam), which contains PFAS — so-called "forever chemicals." People later diagnosed with certain cancers and conditions are now pursuing claims in ongoing federal litigation.

What is the AFFF litigation?
Lawsuits against AFFF manufacturers are consolidated in federal multidistrict litigation (MDL 2873) in the District of South Carolina. Plaintiffs allege that manufacturers knew PFAS chemicals in the foam were linked to serious health conditions and failed to warn the people who worked with it. Thousands of personal injury cases remain pending; no global personal-injury settlement has been reached as of August 2026.
Who may qualify?
In general, case reviews focus on people with direct occupational exposure to AFFF — firefighters (civilian or military), military service members, airport workers, and industrial workers — who were later diagnosed with conditions such as kidney cancer, testicular cancer, ulcerative colitis, thyroid cancer, thyroid disease, or liver cancer. The questionnaire above checks these criteria in under a minute.
Frequently asked questions
Does it cost anything to find out if I qualify?
No. The questionnaire and case review are free, and the law firms handling these cases typically work on contingency — they only get paid if your case succeeds.
Is there a deadline?
Deadlines (statutes of limitations) vary by state and by when you were diagnosed. Because the litigation is at an advanced stage, waiting can put a claim at risk.
What if I already have a lawyer?
If a lawyer already represents you for this claim, this review isn't for you — direct questions to your current counsel.
Will I have to go to court?
Most participants never see a courtroom. If your case moves forward, the legal team handles filings; many claims resolve without individual trials. No outcome is ever guaranteed.
