*Please note that we are no longer accepting clients for JUUL E-Cigarette claims
Electronic cigarette and vaping devices, including the extremely popular JUUL device, have disrupted the tobacco industry. Millions of consumers became e-cigarette users in the years following the product’s initial debut. Many people switched from traditional cigarettes to electronic versions due to manufacturers’ assertions that they were safer and/or healthier “alternatives.” In reality, JUUL and other e-cigarette devices can pose serious health risks for users.

Common Reasons for JUUL E-Cigarette Lawsuits
In their relatively short history, JUUL and electronic cigarettes have stirred up great controversy in the number of related health complications, illnesses and injuries. Thousands of consumers have brought suits against e-cigarette manufacturers and distributors for allegedly causing their serious damages. At Shapiro Legal Group, PLLC, our JUUL e-cigarette attorneys represent clients during all types of JUUL e-cigarette lawsuits. We can help you explore your options for legal recourse after many types of related incidents.
- Dangerous marketing. It is a manufacturing company’s duty to responsibly market and advertise its products. Many suits against JUUL manufacturers allege that they failed to do this by intentionally marketing toward young people. Some parents have filed suits for their children’s’ nicotine addictions, for example, due to JUUL failing to make it clear that their products contain nicotine. A JUUL cartridge contains about five times the amount of nicotine as other e-cigarette brands.
- Lung illnesses. Other e-cigarette lawsuits stem from severe and potentially deadly related lung illnesses. Popcorn lung, for example, has ties to the ingredient diacetyl – used as a flavoring in many e-cigarette cartridges. Popcorn lung is an irreversible condition that causes damage to the airways. Another serious illness called e-cigarette, or vaping, product use-associated lung injury (EVALI) caused thousands of hospitalizations and numerous deaths.
- Exploding e-cigarettes. Defective lithium-ion batteries in some e-cigarette devices have led to disasters such as e-cigarette explosions, fires and serious personal injuries. E-cigarette explosions are unpredictable and can occur while or not while in use. Fires and explosions connected to these devices have caused burn injuries, lacerations, shrapnel injuries, eye and face injuries, mouth injuries, lost teeth, amputations, property damage, and wrongful death.
