PFAS Municipal Water Lawsuit
Decades of unchecked chemical pollution have left an indelible mark on our communities. The lasting legacy of PFAS, also known as 'forever chemicals,' continues to contaminate our water sources and pose serious health risks to those affected. Our mission is to reverse this damage and protect the health and safety of our cities and municipalities.
Not long ago, lawsuits started against over 25 chemical companies, including giants 3M and DuPont, alleging that they knowingly manufactured and sold products laced with harmful PFAS chemicals. This lawsuit strives to bring these corporations accountable for their role in this environmental crisis and the health risks that have since emerged.
We stand alongside the affected municipalities and cities in this battle. Now is the time to take deliberate action. If your city, municipality, or water authority has been impacted by PFAS contamination, we invite you to connect with us. Together, we can join a historic class action lawsuit poised to affect real change.
Eligibility
PFAS contamination has far-reaching effects, penetrating the lives of everyday citizens, therein putting communities at risk. Is your city or municipality among those grappling with the fallout from PFAS water contamination? If PFAS compounds have been detected in your water supply or if your community has experienced related health effects, then your municipality or city may be eligible to join the PFAS water contamination lawsuit led by our team.
Eligibility extends to all cities, municipalities, and water authorities that have suffered from water contaminated by PFAS chemicals. The presence of these harmful 'forever chemicals' in your water supply and the resultant public health risks are pivotal to determining eligibility.
Remember: the effects of PFAS exposure can be far-reaching, with risks including cancer, birth defects, liver damage, impaired vaccine response, and higher cholesterol levels among other serious health issues. PFAS lingers in the environment causing long-lasting impacts on public health.
Time is of the essence. While there is currently no firm deadline for cities, municipalities, or water authorities to join the lawsuit, the urgent implications on public health and the environment make immediate action crucial.

Originating from allegations against the rampant propagation of PFAS chemicals, this settlement represents a broad coalition of affected water utilities across the country.
