The Bard PowerPort (“BardPort”) is a port catheter device implanted just under the skin to allow for easy attachment to a catheter for the intravenous delivery of fluids or medication.

The Bard PowerPort has inherent design and manufacturing flaws that make the device prone to fracturing and migrating out of position. This can cause severe injuries, including internal vascular damage.

Individuals who suffered injuries due to a defective Bard PowerPort device are now bringing product liability lawsuits against the manufacturer of the PowerPort implants. Our firm is currently accepting new cases from anyone who had a Bard PowerPort port catheter device implanted and was injured due to a fracture, migration, or other implant failures.

This page is about social media addiction lawsuits and who is eligible to bring a claim. Our lawyers also provide the latest social media class action lawsuit news.

The problem that led to social media lawsuits is millions of people – too many of whom are children – are addicted to social media platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, and others. For these vulnerable users, social media addiction can be very harmful and lead to things like eating disorders, depression, and, in some cases, suicide.

Now, these companies are facing a wave of new social media lawsuits alleging that they knowingly designed the algorithms of their platforms to lure young people into harmful addictions.

Our lawyers are handling AFFF firefighting foam lawsuits around the country.

This page provides the most recent news and updates on the AFFF firefighting foam class action lawsuit and our prediction of the settlement amounts plaintiffs with AFFF cancer lawsuits can expect to receive. You will not get more updated news on the AFFF litigation anywhere else.

Our AFFF firefighting foam lawyers believe the defendants will settle most of these lawsuits this year (2025) before there is a single trial.  Why? They will follow the same pattern as the water contamination lawsuits they settled for billions of dollars.  In those cases, we saw the defendants’ apparent preference for settlement over the uncertainties of a trial.  This makes sense; the AFFF lawsuits are strong cases.

This page examines AFFF firefighting foam lawsuits involving testicular cancer and their potential settlement value.

Aqueous film-forming foam (“AFFF”), which most people call firefighting foam, has long been used to put out fires fueled by gasoline and other chemicals. Firefighting foam contains high concentrations of PFAS, and new scientific evidence has linked PFAS exposure to certain cancer types.

Testicular cancer is one of the diseases that has been scientifically linked to occupational exposure to AFFF firefighting foam. Our lawyers like these cases. We think the link between testicular cancer and firefighting foam is overwhelming. Our attorneys also think these lawsuits have a strong chance of settling in 2024. If the defendants are going to target types of claims to settle, testicular cancer cases would be an excellent place to start.
