Boston Jury Hits Johnson & Johnson with Record $42M Verdict in Asbestos Baby Powder Case
Dean Omar Branham Shirley attorneys secure verdict by linking mesothelioma to asbestos in J&J talc products BOSTON, July 29, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--A Boston jury has sided with Paul and Kathryn Lovell in a lawsuit against cosmetic behemoth Johnson & Johnson (NYSE:JNJ) that asserted Mr. Lovell's mesothelioma was directly caused by the company's iconic, asbestos-laced baby powder. The jury awarded $42,609,300, making it what lawyers believe to be the largest mesothelioma verdict in Massachusetts history. During the two-week trial, jurors heard compelling arguments from Dean Omar Branham Shirley attorneys Aaron Chapman and Danny Kraft, who detailed how Johnson & Johnson and its affiliated entities knowingly concealed for decades the health risks associated with their talc products. The attorneys presented internal documents showing the company's awareness of asbestos contamination, its failure to adopt safer alternatives and systematic manipulation of scientific testing methods. The jury agreed that the company not only failed to warn consumers, but also actively misled the public and regulators by suppressing test results and spreading false assurances about product safety. "This verdict is not just about Paul Lovell. It's about every consumer who was told these products were safe," said Mr. Chapman. "For years, Johnson & Johnson ignored its own internal warnings and scientific evidence about the presence of asbestos in its talc. The jury has sent a strong message: Corporate misconduct will not be tolerated." Mr. Lovell, 69, and his wife have been married for 45 years. A father of four, he used Johnson's Baby Powder on himself and his children, trusting it was safe. They have lived in the same home in Melrose, Massachusetts, for decades. "Paul never worked in a factory, never used joint compound, and never had any occupational exposure to asbestos. Instead, like untold millions of Americans, he was a lifelong user of J&J's Baby Powder," said Mr. Kraft. "He trusted the product on himself and on his children." The jury found the company's actions amounted to negligence and breach of warranty. The Lovell family was also represented by Leslie-Anne Taylor of Thornton Law Firm LLP. The case is Paul Lovell and Kathryn Lovell v. Johnson & Johnson, Civil Action No. 21-2086, filed in Middlesex County Superior Court in Massachusetts. Dean Omar Branham Shirley, LLP, is a nationally recognized trial firm that handles cases across the country for individuals who have suffered catastrophic injuries or have died as a result of irresponsible conduct of others.

Johnson & Johnson Hit With $8M Verdict in Massachusetts Mesothelioma Talc Lawsuit
BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--A Suffolk County jury has awarded $8 million in favor of Janice Paluzzi, a Massachusetts woman who developed mesothelioma after decades of using Johnson & Johnson's (NYSE:JNJ) talcum powder products. 'Johnson & Johnson knew its talc Baby Powder could kill, and they chose to keep selling it anyway, despite the availability of safer cornstarch-based powders,' said Ben Braly. 'We are grateful to the jury for holding them to account.' Share The jury found the pharmaceutical giant liable for negligence and breach of warranty, concluding that the company's asbestos-contaminated talcum powder products caused Paluzzi's terminal cancer. During the trial, the Dean Omar Branham Shirley legal team, which represented Ms. Paluzzi, presented extensive evidence showing that Johnson & Johnson had internal knowledge of asbestos in its talc supply dating back decades yet continued to market the products as safe for daily use. J&J ceased production and sale of all products containing talc in the United States in 2020. Ms. Paluzzi, a lifelong user of the company's Baby Powder on herself and her children, was diagnosed with mesothelioma in 2021. 'Johnson & Johnson knew its talc Baby Powder could kill, and they chose to keep selling it anyway, despite the availability of safer cornstarch-based powders,' said Ben Braly, one of Ms. Paluzzi's attorneys. 'We are grateful to the jury for holding them to account.' Ms. Paluzzi, 84, raised seven children in single-bathroom homes for 20 years. Today, she has 10 grandchildren and is suffering through her illness. The legal team included Ben Braly, Anthony Bianco and Aaron Chapman of Dean Omar Branham Shirley, along with Brian Kenney of Early, Lucarelli, Sweeney & Mesienkothen, LLC and Amy Carter with the Carter Law Group. 'Johnson & Johnson sold their product as safe and took advantage of the trust of families like Ms. Paluzzi's,' said Dean Omar Branham Shirley partner Trey Branham. 'She used it every day on herself and her children. The jury saw that betrayal and delivered justice.' The case is Janice Paluzzi v. Johnson & Johnson, Civil Action No. 21-2109, filed in Suffolk County Superior Court in Massachusetts.
