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?
Nebraska women who used chemical hair relaxers and were diagnosed with uterine cancer, ovarian cancer, or endometriosis may pursue claims through MDL 3060. Nebraska has a 4-year statute of limitations for product liability. Omaha and Lincoln have Black communities where hair relaxer products were marketed. Nebraska's longer filing window provides additional time for women to consult with attorneys and evaluate their claims.
