What Are PFAS and Why Are They Dangerous?

If you or a loved one has been diagnosed with kidney, testicular, liver, or thyroid cancer—or ulcerative colitis—after PFAS exposure, you may be entitled to compensation.

PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) are a group of synthetic chemicals used since the 1940s in products like:

  • Non-stick cookware (Teflon)

  • Waterproof clothing

  • Food wrappers

  • Firefighting foam (AFFF)

Nicknamed “forever chemicals” because they don’t break down naturally, PFAS accumulate in water, soil, and even the human body—posing long-term health risks.

Why It Matters:

PFAS have been detected in the blood of nearly every American. The more you’re exposed—through drinking water, your job, or daily products—the higher your risk for serious illness.

Health Conditions Linked to PFAS Exposure

Kidney Cancer

Strength of Link: Strong
How PFAS Harm: Cause oxidative stress and DNA damage in kidney tissue
Symptoms: Blood in urine, flank pain, fatigue

Testicular Cancer

Strength of Link: Strong
How PFAS Harm: Disrupt hormone regulation, especially testosterone
Symptoms: Lump or swelling in testicle, groin discomfort

Liver Cancer

Strength of Link: Emerging evidence
How PFAS Harm: Trigger chronic inflammation and liver toxicity
Symptoms: Upper abdominal pain, jaundice, appetite loss

Ulcerative Colitis (UC)

Strength of Link: Strong
How PFAS Harm: Dysregulate immune system, provoke gut inflammation
Symptoms: Bloody diarrhea, abdominal cramps, fatigue

How Do PFAS Cause These Illnesses?

Studies—including the C8 Health Project—have shown PFAS disrupt cellular processes, impair DNA repair, and interfere with hormone systems. These mechanisms can trigger long-term damage, inflammation, and ultimately, cancer or autoimmune disease.

Who Is Most at Risk?

PFAS exposure is nearly universal, but high-risk groups include:

  • Residents near military bases, airports, or chemical plants

  • Firefighters regularly exposed to AFFF

  • Chemical plant or industrial workers

  • Communities with contaminated groundwater

Even if you don’t fall into one of these groups, you could still have been exposed through drinking water or consumer products.

Can I Reduce PFAS Exposure?

While you can’t eliminate PFAS entirely, you can:

  • Use a certified water filter (look for NSF/ANSI 53 or 58 certification)

  • Avoid non-stick cookware and fast food wrappers

  • Choose personal care and household items labeled PFAS-free

  • Stay informed about state regulations and water testing in your area

Do I Qualify for a PFAS Lawsuit?

You may be eligible if:

✅ You were exposed to PFAS (via drinking water, work, or products)
✅ You were diagnosed with a related condition (e.g., cancer or UC)
✅ You lived near or worked at a known contamination site

Our team will help gather medical records, environmental testing results, and site history to support your claim.
