AFFF Firefighting Foam Lawsuits Greenville, SC
Greenville, SC, is a thriving city where industrial, military, and emergency services intersect. But beneath the surface of this growth lies a hidden danger for many workers and residents—exposure to AFFF (Aqueous Film Forming Foam), a firefighting foam containing toxic PFAS chemicals. These “forever chemicals” do not break down easily and have been linked to serious health conditions, including various forms of cancer.
If you live in Greenville or spent time working in firefighting, military service, or near an industrial site where AFFF was used, and you have developed a PFAS-related illness, you may be entitled to financial compensation. Though The Solomon Law Group, LLC is based in Columbia, SC, we proudly represent clients in Greenville and surrounding areas who have been impacted by toxic exposure.
What Is AFFF and How Does It Harm People?
AFFF is a fire suppressant used for decades by firefighters, airports, chemical plants, and military installations. While effective at extinguishing high-intensity fires, the foam contains per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), which have been shown to accumulate in the human body over time.
Research has linked PFAS exposure to several serious conditions:
- Kidney cancer
- Testicular cancer
- Liver damage
- Thyroid disorders
- Immune system impairment
- Hormonal disruptions
Because PFAS chemicals resist degradation, they can remain in soil and water supplies for years, increasing the risk of long-term health consequences.
