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.

Where would my case be heard?

Oregon women who used chemical hair relaxers and were diagnosed with uterine cancer, ovarian cancer, or endometriosis may file claims through MDL 3060. Oregon has a 2-year statute of limitations for product liability. Portland has a growing Black community that was targeted by relaxer marketing. Oregon women with recent qualifying diagnoses should consult a hair relaxer attorney to protect their filing rights.
