Firefighting Foam Exposure Can Lead to Serious Health Problems
Firefighters, military personnel, and airport workers have long relied on firefighting foam (AFFF) to put out dangerous fuel fires. However, this foam contains toxic chemicals known as PFAS—often called “forever chemicals”—which have been linked to cancer and other severe health conditions. If you’ve been exposed, you may be entitled to compensation.
Typical health issues linked to firefighting foam exposure:
- Kidney cancer
- Testicular cancer
- Bladder cancer
- Pancreatic or prostate cancer
- Thyroid disease and other immune disorders
If you worked with or around firefighting foam, don’t assume your illness is just bad luck. The manufacturers of AFFF may have known about the risks but failed to warn those who relied on their products for years. You deserve answers—and justice.
When you’re searching for a firefighting foam cancer lawyer in the greater Houston area, you want someone who understands these complex cases and fights hard to hold corporations accountable.

A firefighting foam cancer claim can help cover medical bills, lost wages, and the pain and suffering caused by exposure to dangerous chemicals. You’ve risked your life to protect others—now let us protect you.
The Real Cost of Firefighting Foam Exposure

Here’s what we help people recover:
- Medical expenses – hospital stays, treatments, medications, ongoing care
- Lost wages – including future income if you can no longer work
- Pain and suffering – physical and emotional hardship caused by your illness
You don’t have to face this battle alone. And you shouldn’t.
So Who’s Liable for Firefighting Foam-Related Cancer?
In these cases, multiple parties may share responsibility. When you hire a Herbert Trial Law firefighting foam cancer lawyer, you’ll have a team that understands product liability and environmental exposure—and will thoroughly investigate to find out who put you in harm’s way:
- Firefighting foam manufacturers – who used or sold toxic AFFF containing PFAS chemicals
- Chemical companies – that produced and distributed PFAS compounds despite knowing their health risks
- Corporations responsible for groundwater contamination – near airports, military bases, and industrial sites
- Employers and agencies – that failed to protect firefighters, airport crews, and military personnel from exposure
- Distributors and suppliers – that continued selling dangerous foam products after safety warnings
We uncover the truth—identifying who’s responsible and holding them accountable.
How Insurance Companies & Manufacturers Respond
Insurance companies and chemical manufacturers are quick to shift the blame. Why? Because they want to protect their bottom line—not the people exposed to toxic foam.
When victims develop cancer from AFFF exposure, companies often claim the illness came from other causes or personal lifestyle factors—even when decades of research show PFAS chemicals are linked to severe health conditions.
Don’t be surprised if you hear:
- “There’s no evidence you were exposed to AFFF”
- “You don’t qualify for the AFFF lawsuit.”
- “Your cancer isn’t related to firefighting foam.”
- “The statute of limitations has already expired.”
- “We followed all safety and disposal regulations.”

“I never knew the foam that protected others was harming me. Kyle and his team made sure someone was held responsible.”
— Michael T., Houston, TX
retired firefighter & AFFF exposure client
Michael spent more than two decades fighting fires on military bases and city stations—regularly exposed to firefighting foam later found to contain toxic PFAS chemicals. When diagnosed with kidney cancer, he had no idea his illness could be linked to AFFF exposure. The foam manufacturers denied liability, claiming the products were “safe.” Kyle’s team uncovered internal documents showing the companies knew the risks. They filed a firefighting foam cancer lawsuit and secured a $750,000 settlement to help cover Michael’s treatment, lost income, and long-term medical care.
