2 years from diagnosis

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?

Hawaii women who used chemical hair straighteners or relaxers and developed uterine cancer, ovarian cancer, or endometriosis can file claims into MDL 3060 regardless of their distance from the Chicago courthouse. Hawaii has a 2-year statute of limitations for product liability. While Hawaii has a smaller affected population, any woman who regularly used products from L'Oréal, Revlon, or Namaste Laboratories and received a qualifying diagnosis should consult a hair relaxer attorney.
