Frequently Asked Questions about Defective Drugs
Below are some of the most frequently asked questions about a defective drug and harmful drugs lawsuits.
How
do I know if the drug I am using is defective?
It is sometimes hard to determine. Often, the side
effects of a drug are subtle but can have lasting,
harmful effects. In other cases, the damage is immediate
and often debilitating. Serious side effects are not
a fact of life. Call us today if you suspect the drug
you are using to be defective.
What if I have used a defective
drug that is not on your list of practice areas?
Call us. Even if the drug you are concerned about
does not appear on our list, our lawyers have extensive
experience in numerous medical malpractice and defective
drug litigations and can help you determine if you
have been the victim of defective drugs.
I think the drug I'm taking may be defective. Should I stop taking it?
No. You should consult your doctor before discontinuing
any medication. Also, if you notice any effect that
you suspect to be a result of taking a potentially defective drug , contact your doctor immediately. After meeting
with your doctor, you should contact one of our attorneys
immediately.
How do I know if I have a
case?
The answer to this question depends on many different
factors, but if you have taken or are currently taking VIOXX, Bextra, Adderall XR,
Accutane, Ephedra, drugs containing PPA (Alka-Selzer
Plus, Acutrim, Comtrex, Contac, Dexatrim, Dimetapp,
Robitussin, Tavist-D, Triaminic), Prempro, or Provera
and have experienced any side effect that concerns
you, you may have a case. If you believe you have
been a victim of defective drugs, please contact our
firm today.
How much will a lawyer cost?
In most cases, our lawyers work on a contingency
fee basis. That is, you will not pay any money unless
your lawsuit is won, in which case the attorney’s
fee is based on a predetermined percentage of the
total settlement. In other words, we only get paid
if you do. Otherwise, you pay nothing.
If I win my case, what sort
of compensation can I expect?
That is a difficult question to answer. Every case
is different, but we can assure you that we will work
hard to get you everything you deserve.
