PFAS contamination claims in Alabama must be filed within 2 years under Ala. Code § 6-2-38. Alabama’s contributory negligence rule is rarely applicable in PFAS cases because liability centers on industrial manufacturers and polluters who released chemicals into water supplies rather than on affected residents. The EPA designated PFOA and PFOS as hazardous substances under CERCLA in 2024, and Alexander Shunnarah Trial Attorneys represents PFAS contamination victims across Alabama.

Legal claims tied to forever chemicals are growing as more people connect health issues to past exposure. Learn more about how the process works and what our lawyers can do for you.
Our PFAS contamination attorney can help your family understand whether your water supply was affected by forever chemicals and what that exposure could mean for your health. We’ll review where you live and whether your area has tested positive for PFAS. Our team will also gather records (like water test results, medical diagnoses, and government data) to build a case against the company or agency responsible. Our goal is to help you seek financial support for medical care, loss of income, future health costs, and more. We take on the legal burden so your family can focus on recovery and stability.
The most common health conditions linked to PFAS exposure include kidney cancer, testicular cancer, thyroid disease, liver problems, high cholesterol, ulcerative colitis, and reproductive issues like infertility or birth complications. These health effects often develop after long-term exposure to PFAS in drinking water, food, or soil. Because PFAS builds up in the body over time, many people don’t realize they’ve been affected until years later. Legal claims rely on medical records, exposure history, and research that connects these conditions to PFAS.
Great question. You should consider a lawsuit if you’ve been diagnosed with a serious illness and live near a site with known PFAS contamination, such as a military base, airport, manufacturing plant, or area where firefighting foam was used. Even if you’re not sure whether PFAS is the cause, it’s worth speaking with our law firm. We can check public records, environmental data, and even recent litigation to see if your location is part of a current lawsuit or eligible for a new one. Acting sooner rather than later helps make sure your claim is filed within your state’s legal deadline.
Our attorneys build your case by gathering a wide range of evidence that shows how you were exposed to PFAS and how that exposure may have affected your health. This includes reviewing water and soil test results, collecting medical records, identifying which companies used PFAS in your area, and consulting with toxicology or environmental professionals. We also work to uncover internal company documents showing the manufacturer knew the chemicals were dangerous but failed to warn the public. Our team will then use this information to hold the manufacturer legally and financially responsible.
If your PFAS lawsuit is successful, you may be able to recover compensation for medical bills, both past and future, related to your illness. You might also be reimbursed for lost wages, reduced ability to work, emotional distress, and any long-term health care you need. Some lawsuits include claims for the cost of testing your home’s water or installing filtration systems. In cases where companies knowingly put people at risk, courts may award additional punitive damages to hold them accountable. Every case is different, and our legal team will give you a clearer idea of what type of settlement to expect based on your diagnosis and exposure history.
Absolutely! Our firm has lawyers who focus on PFAS cancer claims and know how to investigate your exposure history and compare it to known contamination zones. They use evidence like EPA reports, community water testing, environmental studies, and cancer research to establish a link. They may also bring in doctors or scientists who can explain how PFAS exposure is connected to your specific diagnosis. This connection is a critical part of any claim, and it’s what allows you to hold companies or government agencies accountable.
Both options exist, and the right approach depends on your situation. Some lawsuits are part of multidistrict litigation (MDL), where many similar claims are grouped together to make the process more efficient. In other cases, people file individual claims, especially if their illness is severe or their exposure was different from most others. Our PFAS lawsuit attorneys will review the details of your case and help you decide whether to join an existing lawsuit or file your own. Either way, the goal is to get you the support and compensation you need.
