Deadlines vary; a lawyer can confirm yours. An older diagnosis or a past filing window does not, by itself, establish whether you have a claim.

02 · Where cases are heard

Where would my case be heard?

Connecticut women who developed uterine cancer, ovarian cancer, or endometriosis after using chemical hair relaxers may file claims in MDL 3060. Connecticut has a 3-year statute of limitations for product liability, providing a more generous timeline. Hartford, Bridgeport, and New Haven have substantial communities where hair relaxer products from L'Oréal and Namaste Laboratories were heavily marketed. Connecticut women with recent diagnoses should consult an attorney promptly.
