In most cases, the lawyer asks the lady interested in pursuing a lawsuit to these questions:
- Have you been diagnosed with ovarian cancer-type?
- Whether you use a powder regularly for four years or more as feminine hygiene products?
- Are you using Johnson's Baby Powder or Shower to Shower?
- Do you have a biopsy that showed evidence of powder?
- Do you have a family history of ovarian cancer or genetic disorders pre-dispose him for ovarian cancer, such as BRCA-1?
Now you might wonder what happens if you answer yes to some of these questions and no one else. Maybe you answered yes to using the powder, but it was not for at least four years.
Because of things like this can get complicated rather quickly, you do not want to decide whether you should pursue a claim on your own.
Even if you do not meet all the criteria, you may still have a claim for compensation. Consult an experienced attorney who can investigate your claim, review your medical records and decide whether or not you should pursue a lawsuit.
