Who Can File a Talcum Powder Lawsuit in Delaware?
You may have grounds for a Delaware talcum powder lawsuit if:
- You regularly used or were exposed to talc-containing products.
- You subsequently developed ovarian cancer or mesothelioma.
These cases typically involve women who used baby powder or body powder products in the genital area over extended periods. People who mined talc or worked in manufacturing plants that made talcum powder may also qualify.
These lawsuits claim that the manufacturers were aware of the potential contamination of their products but continued to market and sell these products without warning consumers. Shapiro Legal Group, PLLC can assess your eligibility and begin building your claim for compensation.
How to Document Your Talcum Powder Use and Medical History
Talcum powder claims can be quite complex, both legally and scientifically. The right evidence can strengthen your claim significantly.

You should also gather evidence of your talcum powder use, including specific brands, frequency of application, and duration of use. Old receipts, photographs, or family testimony can help establish your usage patterns.
