What is Involved in a Free, Private Case Evaluation

The Shield Legal Network offers free case evaluations because they are genuinely concerned about the well-being of black women and other victims diagnosed with cancer caused by hair relaxers and hair straightening products.

A free, private case evaluation is an opportunity for an attorney to get to know more about the incident that harmed a prospective client–also, it’s an opportunity for the lawyer to explain the steps involved should a claim be filed for compensation.

Additionally, an attorney can help a person to learn his or her legal rights in a way that makes them easy to understand.

Some of the questions that might be covered include:

  • The type of cancer diagnosis the client received
  • The specific hair relaxer or hair straightening product used
  • When was the client notified of their injuries or diagnosis
  • The impact that the injuries or diagnosis has had on the client

The attorney will ask a lot of questions and take time to clarify the answers, all in an effort to build the strongest case possible.

The Shield Legal Network team offers victims diagnosed with cancer after using hair relaxers and hair straightening products a free, private case evaluation to seek justice and potential compensation.

What is Involved in a Free, Private Case Evaluation

Using chemical hair straightening or relaxer products has been shown to more than double the risk of uterine cancer in women.

All consumers that were diagnosed with uterine cancer after using chemical hair straightening products may be eligible for compensation from a hair straightener lawsuit.

Consumers may be able to file a chemical hair straightener lawsuit if they:

  • Used chemical hair straightening products or relaxers
  • Were later diagnosed with endometrial or uterine cancer

Affected consumers can take a stand against the companies that made these products and seek compensation that can help pay for medical treatment.

Our attorneys work to make the legal process as stress-free as possible by handling every step on the consumer’s behalf.

This process generally involves the hair straightener lawyer and the legal team:

  • Confirming the case qualifies for legal action
  • Building that case by collecting evidence (ie. medical records, testimony, etc.)
  • Filing the hair straightener claim within legal deadlines
  • Negotiating a lawsuit settlement with the defendant(s)
  • If no settlement is reached, taking the defendant(s) to trial

Companies that manufacture personal care items bring in over $42 billion in revenue each year. 

Without a doubt, these large corporations have the resources to conduct the necessary studies to ensure their products are safe.

And, when a company learns that its product contains a potentially harmful substance, the company has a duty to consumers to inform them.

Rather than pull the potentially dangerous products from shelves and conduct further research—or at least issue a warning to consumers—L’Oréal and other companies continued selling these products.

Product liability claims are one of the only ways consumers have to hold large corporations accountable for the harm their products cause.

The Shield Legal Network team believes that black women diagnosed with cancer after using hair relaxers and hair straightening products should receive justice and potential compensation.
