SoftSheen Carson Optimum Hair Relaxer Lawsuits

by Ronald V. Miller, Jr.

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.

by Ronald V. Miller, Jr.

There is a lot of confusion out there about Mirena lawsuits. Women are bewildered because there have been so many lawyers in recent years who are looking to bring a Mirena lawsuit. There are still Mirena lawsuit advertisements still up in 2024. Yet they cannot find a lawyer for their case. We are not handling these claims. But we can tell you about them.

If you are frustrated, I completely understand. Let me try to explain because there are not a lot of good explanations out there online.

When these lawsuits began, plaintiffs’ lawyers filed thousands of Mirena lawsuits. The focus of the litigation was:

What did Bayer HealthCare Pharmaceuticals know about the risks associated with IUDs in general and, specifically, with Mirena?
Why didn’t the company do a better job of communicating the risks of uterine perforation and migration?
What Bayer tried to do to make its IUD as safe as possible?

Settlement Value of Torn Bicep Injury

by Ronald V. Miller, Jr.

This page discusses injury claims related to bicep injuries resulting from car accidents and other incidents. Our legal team examines the causes of these injuries and explores the typical compensation amounts awarded by juries or settled for torn bicep injuries.

About Bicep Tear Injuries

The biceps are muscles located on the front of the upper arm responsible for bending the forearm at the elbow. The bicep is connected to bones by three tendons. One tendon extends from the shoulder’s outer side, attaching the bicep to the top of the shoulder socket. A second tendon secures the bicep to the inner side of the shoulder socket on the shoulder blade (scapula). Finally, a third tendon links the bicep to the lower arm bone (radius) at the elbow.
