Where would my case be heard?
New Mexico women who used chemical hair relaxers and developed uterine cancer, ovarian cancer, or endometriosis can pursue claims through MDL 3060. New Mexico has a 3-year statute of limitations for product liability. Albuquerque and Las Cruces residents who used hair relaxer products from L'Oréal, Revlon, or Namaste Laboratories and received a qualifying diagnosis should consult an attorney to evaluate their claims.
