The big legal cases against Johnson & Johnson over asbestos allegedly being contained in their talc products is continually heating up.<\/p>\n

In the latest, Johnson & Johnson have been accused by legal counsel – representing a male who is claiming damages for cancer<\/a> that he says has been caused by the use of Johnson & Johnson talc – of deliberately concealing knowledge of asbestos in the product.<\/p>\n

If true, this may shed a whole new light on the legal cases for compensation against them.
\n
\nJohnson & Johnson have insisted their talc products do not contain asbestos and are safe to use, yet there have been a number of key legal victories against them on the grounds that they do contain asbestos.<\/p>\n

During the closing statements of an ongoing case, the counsel representing an individual claiming damages for mesothelioma against Johnson & Johnson alleged that the medical giant has deliberately hidden the fact they knew their products contained asbestos<\/strong>. He said that Johnson & Johnson used tests that they knew wouldn’t detect toxic material, therefore duping both consumers and regulators.<\/p>\n

This is a very serious allegation which, if true, could pave the way for further legal claims against them. It could be a very difficult argument to prove, though. Is it reasonable to have a test for asbestos for this kind of product? Not all tests will identify absolutely everything out there.<\/p>\n

Experts have already stated that they believe the talc does contain, or has in the past contained, asbestos. <\/p>\n

Prolonged use of the product has therefore been considered as potentially dangerous, which is the primary cause of action for the legal claims against Johnson & Johnson.<\/p>\n

We will continue to monitor these cases as they develop…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
