In this episode, host Megan Berge talks with partners Josh Frank and Alexandra Dunn about a new litigation trend – consumers bringing lawsuits against companies for not disclosing that certain per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are in their products. Recent cases impact fast food, cosmetic, grocery, garment, and are determined to be in their fast food wrappers, cosmetics, or clothing. Resource links, including a quick reference chart of recent cases, are below.
