02 · Where cases are heard

Where would my case be heard?

Montana women who used chemical hair relaxers and developed uterine cancer, ovarian cancer, or endometriosis can file claims in MDL 3060. Montana has a 3-year statute of limitations for product liability. While Montana has a smaller affected population, any woman who regularly used relaxer products and received a qualifying cancer or endometriosis diagnosis is eligible regardless of state population. Montana women should consult a hair relaxer attorney to assess their claims.
