AFFF Firefighting Foam Linked To Cancer
Aqueous film-forming foam (AFFF) is mainly used in combating fires involving liquid flammables. This foam forms a barrier that intercepts the fuel’s access to oxygen, effectively suffocating the fire. Firefighters, naval personnel, and airport staff are regularly exposed to this foam during training and emergency situations.
Exposure to firefighting foam containing PFAS is widely linked to different forms of cancer. The widespread use of this foam has also resulted in contamination across multiple regions of the nation. Legal actions have been initiated against manufacturers, alleging that these companies distributed AFFF despite being aware of its detrimental impact on human health and the environment.

Why Should I Care About the AFFF Lawsuit?
Countless individuals employed in the navy, at airports, and as firefighters were obligated to interact with AFFF as part of their duties. Unbeknownst to them, they were potentially jeopardizing their well-being every single day on the job. Many of them developed cancer later in life, now grappling with the repercussions of prolonged AFFF exposure.
Today, the Navy and other organizations are transitioning away from PFAs-containing chemicals. However, this transition does not offer solace to those who had already encountered the hazardous foam and are currently enduring lasting health challenges. If you or a dear one have been impacted by toxic AFFF, you could be eligible for compensation.
