a nashville hair straightener lawyer explains your responsibilities if you decide to file a hair straightener lawsuit

5/11/2023

 
If you used hair straightener products and suffered hair straightener side effects, contact Nashville hair straightener lawyer Timothy L. Miles
Previous research suggested that hair straightener products and other products for straightened hair are associated with an increased risk of certain hormone-related cancers, breast and ovarian cancers being the most notable.  Now, a new study by in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute (JNCI) has linked the use of hair straightener products to an increased risk in uterine cancer, and Black females may be affected at a higher rate due to their higher usage of hair straightener products the study noted. 

The study found that out of women who had not used hair straightener products in the last 12 months, only 1.6% developed uterine cancer by the age of 70.  However, approximately 4% of women who frequently use hair straightener products developed uterine cancer by the age of 70.  The fact that uterine cancer is so rare, the doubling of its risk raises concern.  Chandra Jackon, an author of the study and researcher at the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) stated, "In this study, women with frequent use in the past year [of hair straightener products] had an over two-fold higher risk of uterine cancer.” Using products for straightened hair more than four times a year was defined as frequent. 

If you used products for straightened hair and subsequently were diagnosed with uterine cancer, breast cancer or suffered any other any other significant hair straightener side effects from hair straightener products, contact Nashville​ Hair Straightener Lawyer Timothy L. Miles to see if you may be eligible for a hair straightener lawsuit and possibly be entitled to significant compensation as a result of using products for straightened hair resulting in your hair straightener side effects.

Read on to learn about your responsibilities if you are eligible for a hair straightener lawsuit and decide to file a hair straightener lawsuit by Nashville Hair Straightener Lawyer Timothy L. Miles, Esq.

IF I DECIDE TO FILE A HAIR STRAIGHTENER LAWSUIT, HOW INVOLVED WILL I HAVE TO BE?

​​If you are eligible for a hair straightener lawsuit and decide to file a hair straightener lawsuit, your primary responsibilities as a plaintiff are as follows:
  • Regularly meeting with your Nashville​ hair straightener lawyer in person or on the phone.
  • Reviewing certain pleadings and motions for accuracy before they are filed with the court by your Nashville​ hair straightener lawyer.
  • Participating in the discovery process which includes:
    • Gathering and turning over to the defendant all documents in your possession relative to you claim.
    • Answering written questions under oath.
    • Possibly admitting or denying certain factual statements under oath.  
    • Giving a deposition which is a proceeding outside of court but under oath in which the defendant’s attorney asked you questions about use of products for straightened hair and the severe health consequences you suffered as a result of using products for straightened hair and the testimony is taken down by a court reporter. 
  • If your hair straightener lawsuit is not dismissed or settled and goes to trial, you will have to attend the trial and testify.  

While this may not be every single thing you are required to do, it is the bulk of your responsibilities as a plaintiff.  When you meet with your Nashville hair straightener lawyer, he will explain your responsibilities in greater detail.
