Where would my case be heard?
Ohio women who used chemical hair relaxers and were diagnosed with uterine cancer, ovarian cancer, or endometriosis can pursue claims through MDL 3060. Ohio has a 2-year statute of limitations for product liability. Cleveland, Columbus, Cincinnati, and Dayton have substantial Black communities that were primary marketing targets for hair relaxer products. Ohio women should consult an attorney about their filing rights.
