What are the legal, environmental, and business implications of PFAS—often called “forever chemicals”? In this episode of The Firm Report, host Randy Jarrin sits down with John Ray of The Ray Group and Dr. Nhan Nguyen of West Loop Law to discuss why PFAS litigation may represent not one mass tort, but a “mass of mass torts.”
The conversation explores the expanding PFAS litigation landscape beyond AFFF, including localized water contamination, state-level claims, product users, environmental remediation, and the need for technically experienced litigation teams. John and Dr. Nguyen also discuss why PFAS exposure is increasingly appearing in insurance analysis, investment due diligence, and company valuation decisions.
