MB Live with Attorney Joel Dilorenzo to Discuss Defective Combat Earplugs

The next MB Live will air Friday, May 24^th at 2:00 PM Central Time and will feature Attorney Joel Dilorenzo for a discussion on the combat veteran earplug case against 3M, including what gives rise to a claim, who is included, how the claims process works, who the Defendant is and who isn’t. Soldiers who were deployed between 2003 and 2015 were issued the 3M Combat Arms earplugs despite the fact that the dual-ended earplugs were too short for proper insertion. Because of this defect, the earplugs could loosen in the users’ ears, potentially resulting in serious, even permanent hearing loss or tinnitus. 3M is also charged with manipulating test results to ensure their earplugs would meet government standards and they would be awarded the lucrative government earplug contract.
