Data show plaintiffs’ lawyers spent more than $778,000 to air more than 4,600 TV ads soliciting the claims, the most spent on talc ads since August, 2023, according to X Ante founder Rustin Silverstein
Television advertisements soliciting claims from people who say they got cancer from talc powder products dramatically increased in September, the same month that Johnson & Johnson said it would pay more than $9-billion to resolve talc claims as part of a proposed bankruptcy settlement, according to new data.
Johnson & Johnson is facing lawsuits from more than 62,000 plaintiffs who say they were diagnosed with cancer after using baby powder and other talc products, according to a company filing. Some plaintiffs’ attorneys support the deal as the best way to get compensation for their clients, while others argue that the settlement value is too low and that wealthy companies like J&J should not be allowed to use the legal system to gain bankruptcy protections meant for people and companies that cannot afford to pay their debts.
