For decades, Arizona families trusted Johnson & Johnson implicitly. Parents sprinkled their babies daily during diaper changes with a fragrant and iconic white powder. Women in Arizona used it every day to stay fresh and dry. We all trusted in the carefully-crafted image of Johnson’s Baby Powder: safe, reliable, every-day comfort.
But all along, since at least 1970, executives at J&J knew something women in Arizona didn’t: their talcum powder contained asbestos, which causes cancer. By keeping this secret—by lying, concealing, distracting and denying—J&J has caused hundreds of thousands of women to suffer unnecessarily. Countless families including some in Arizona have lost their mother, grandmother, aunt, sister; thousands of women have died. A paper trail of memos and internal communications show that executives worried about the risk of baby powder cancer but consistently chose profits over the safety of Arizona consumers.
The tide has turned against Johnson & Johnson. The Arizona public knows that Johnson’s Baby Powder causes ovarian cancer, and families in Arizona are uniting with others around the U.S. to hold this corporate giant accountable for decades of deceit and harm. Filing a talcum powder cancer lawsuit brings Arizona women and their family members compensation for the pain, suffering, medical expenses, and loss brought about by baby powder ovarian cancer and corporate greed.

Gloria Ristesund of South Dakota was a plaintiff in the first of the talcum powder lawsuits resulting in compensation. Ristesund was diagnosed with ovarian cancer after using Johnson’s Baby Powder and Shower-to-Shower for routine feminine hygiene over the course of four decades. Ristesund underwent a hysterectomy and her cancer went into remission. Agreeing with Ristesund’s claims that her ovarian cancer was linked to using talcum powder and that Johnson & Johnson had been aware of the risk yet neglected to warn consumers, the jury awarded $55 million in compensatory and punitive damages in a 2017 trial.

The talcum powder ovarian cancer trial of Jackie Fox also resulted in a winning verdict, though sadly after Ms. Fox’s death. Ms. Fox was diagnosed with ovarian cancer in 2012 following decades of talcum powder use. In 2016, our talcum powder ovarian cancer attorneys now serving Arizona proved that Johnson & Johnson had been aware of the risks posed by its talcum powder products, yet concealed the dangers from the public. The jury foreman, Krista Smith, explained that evidence presented against Johnson and Johnson made it, “really clear they were hiding something.” After deliberating for just four hours, the jury awarded $72 million in talcum powder ovarian cancer damages. This early case served to bring public attention in Arizona to the talcum powder ovarian cancer danger; more than 12,000 talcum powder ovarian cancer cases have now been filed against Johnson & Johnson since.

Through our winning verdicts, the Onder Law Firm has been able to prove that Johnson & Johnson was not only aware of the risk posed by talcum powder cancer and chose not to issue talcum powder cancer warnings, but worked to actively withhold the truth from the residents of Arizona and the American public to protect the reputation of its talcum powder products. Our firm has become the largest force in sharing talcum powder ovarian cancer warning information with citizens in Arizona and around the U.S., beginning with a public awareness campaign in 2013. Despite J&J’s repeated denial of the dangers of ovarian cancer from talcum powder, our firm has steadfastly worked to educate women in Arizona and beyond on the scientific research that has accumulated over four decades.
