SoftSheen Carson Optimum Hair Relaxer Lawsuits

A new study from NIH found that using chemical hair relaxers such as Softsheen-Carson Optimum, can increase the risk of uterine cancer by 150%. The publication of this new evidence has led to hair relaxer lawsuits being filed against L’Oreal and its subsidiary SoftSheen-Caron. The plaintiffs filing these lawsuits are alleging that the chemicals in hair relaxer products like Optimum caused them to develop uterine cancer (or related conditions such as uterine fibroids and endometriosis).

In this post, we will discuss the new evidence on uterine cancer and hair relaxer and the allegations in the lawsuits against L’Oreal regarding its SoftSheen Carson product line. We will also look at the potential settlement value of these cases.

MacLaren Hall Sex Abuse Lawsuits

by Ronald V. Miller, Jr.

Victims of childhood sexual abuse at MacLaren Hall in Los Angeles County may now be eligible to file civil lawsuits and pursue significant financial compensation. MacLaren Hall, once a county-run facility for children in crisis, has become the focus of widespread legal action after hundreds of former residents came forward with disturbing accounts of sexual abuse, neglect, and systemic mistreatment.

In response to over 6,000 claims of abuse across multiple juvenile institutions, Los Angeles County recently approved a landmark $4 billion sex abuse settlement, one of the largest payouts for institutional abuse in U.S. history. A large number of those claims stem from abuse at MacLaren Hall, which operated for decades with little oversight and became a symbol of institutional failure because of the horrors that occurred there.

Despite this historic settlement, survivors can still file new California detention center lawsuits. Our law firm is representing individuals who were abused at MacLaren Hall and we continue to accept new case for victims under 40 years old. The legal process remains open to survivors who have not yet come forward, including those who may have only recently begun to understand or confront the trauma they experienced.
