Pennsylvania JUUL Lawsuit Lawyers
Fighting for Victims of E-Cigarette & Addiction Injuries
In recent years, there has been a considerable backlash against e-cigarettes, especially the manufacturer of the popular e-cigarette brand JUUL. Teens and young adults have filed lawsuits against JUUL, claiming that the company’s products caused lung damage and led to hospitalization. Deceptive marketing may have played a huge role in getting teens and young adults addicted to nicotine and “JUULing.” JUUL has also been accused of sending one million tainted flavor pods out to customers.
If you or someone you love has been negatively affected by JUUL cigarettes or similar e-cigarette products, Fellerman & Ciarimboli Law PC can guide you through the process of filing a JUUL lawsuit and seeking compensation for your damages, including medical bills, lost income/wages, and pain and suffering.

What Is a JUUL?
A JUUL is a form of electronic cigarette (e-cigarette) that is about the size of a USB thumb drive and, coincidentally, is charged via USB cable. JUUL devices use nicotine in the form of a liquid paired with flavoring, glycerin, and propylene glycol. With the use of JUUL’s onboard battery and heating coils, the liquid is heated when inhaled and turned into vapor, hence the term “vaping.” JUUL and similar devices are referred to as electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS).
This USB style e-cigarette uses a pod system to deliver the nicotine to the user. The pod attaches to the top of the unit where the battery leads and coils sit. These units are highly addictive, as one pod unit contains nearly as much nicotine as a pack of cigarettes! The liquid contained in these pods has a much larger concentration of nicotine in each draw that is absorbed into the body at a much higher rate than tobacco cigarettes.
JUUL Lawsuits
Recently, two Philadelphia area school districts sued JUUL, along with many others across the nation, for harm caused to students through JUUL’s negligent marketing, which has been instrumental in getting teens addicted to nicotine. These types of cases are popping up all over the nation and are becoming more and more common.
JUUL lawsuits allege that the company’s aggressive marketing tactics are getting teens hooked on higher concentrations of nicotine that are more dangerous to still-developing lungs.
As a result, teens have suffered from nicotine poisoning, which can result in:
- Seizures
- Convulsions
- Joint pain
- Blood clots
- Heart injuries
- Embolisms
- Elevated blood pressure
- Stroke
Despite the known dangers, JUUL’s domination expands to over half the market share of e-cigarettes. Many lawsuits claim that JUUL purposely made this device small and sleek to attract younger users. This caused traditional cigarette smoking rates to fall to 3.6% in recent years from 29% in 1976, while JUUL use among teens skyrocketed.

I have a friend who sought help from Fellerman & Ciarimboli and said they were very nice and helpful. So when I needed assistance, they were the first ones I thought of, and gave them a call. I was connected to Attorney Molly Clark, who made a significant impact. Her comforting personality created a welcoming environment during our interactions, turning what could have been a somber experience into one filled with positivity. Our upbeat conversations, in contrast to the challenging situation, improved my well-being.
What truly won me over was Molly's commitment to keeping me informed about the progress of my situation. Whenever I called her with questions, she promptly provided answers, ensuring I had the information I needed when I needed it. Working with Fellerman & Ciarimboli was a positive experience given the circumstances I was facing. I highly recommend Attorney Molly and the firm to anyone seeking reliable and compassionate assistance during challenging times.

There are no adequate words to convey to you, Mike, and Ed how grateful our family is for all of your hard work in helping us through the most difficult time of our lives. Your commitment to justice is unlike anything we have ever witnessed. Our tragedy became your tragedy. The three of you have become part of our family.
Harry, you explained everything necessary in terms which were comprehensible and helpful to us to better understand all that was presented. We are so grateful for that.
The compassion shown to us by not only the three of you, but everyone to whom we encountered at Fellerman & Ciarimboli was off the charts and so sincere.
We will grieve our profound loss for the rest of our lives, but all of you helped to make it a bit easier, and we thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
God's Blessings to you and your family.

I was in a bad accident and I had my daughter in the car with me. I highly recommend this firm.
