File Your Claim →What Happened?
Newell Brands, the maker of NUK baby products, faces a federal class action lawsuit alleging it misleadingly labeled certain NUK pacifiers as "orthodontic" without proven oral health benefits. The lawsuit claims parents paid premium prices for pacifiers marketed as beneficial for their children's dental development when the scientific evidence supporting these claims was inadequate.
This case has not yet settled but a class has been certified and the opt-out deadline is August 24, 2026. If you do not opt out, you will be bound by any future settlement or judgment.
How Much Will I Actually Get?
No settlement amount has been determined yet. If you want to preserve your right to sue Newell Brands individually or be part of a future negotiated settlement on different terms, you must opt out by August 24, 2026. If you stay in the class, you will be bound by whatever the court decides or the parties eventually agree to.
