Aqueous film-forming foam (AFFF), commonly referred to as firefighting foam, is regularly employed by firefighters to extinguish fires. This foam has been used by firefighters for over half a century, mainly because it is an extremely effective tool for putting out fires associated with jet fuel and other petroleum sources.

Unfortunately, perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are core ingredients in firefighting foam, and due to their toxicity, regular exposure to PFAS through the use of firefighting foam has led some firefighters to develop various types of cancer. PFAS includes toxic chemicals such as perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA or C8), perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS), and other PFA substances.

At Williams Law Group, we are currently investigating the cases of firefighters who were exposed to PFAS and were later diagnosed with one of the following types of cancer:

Bladder cancer
Breast cancer
Colorectal cancer
Kidney cancer
Liver cancer
Lymphoma
Pancreatic cancer
Prostate cancer
Testicular cancer
Thyroid cancer

Any person who worked as a firefighter, was exposed to firefighting foam, and later developed cancer could potentially be eligible for an AFFF lawsuit. While military and airport firefighters tend to be exposed to these dangerous substances more often, any firefighter who came into contact with firefighting foam at regular intervals could potentially have a case.
