02 · Where cases are heard
Where would my case be heard?
Wisconsin women who used chemical hair relaxers and developed uterine cancer, ovarian cancer, or endometriosis can file claims in MDL 3060. Wisconsin has a 3-year statute of limitations for product liability. Milwaukee has one of the largest Black communities in the Midwest and was a significant market for hair relaxer products from L'Oréal, Revlon, and Namaste Laboratories. Wisconsin women with qualifying diagnoses should consult a hair relaxer attorney.
