Have you or a loved one taken a drug that has caused a serious life-threatening side effect or been subject to a drug recall? If so, you should contact us immediately. You may be entitled to compensation and we can help.
Drug companies are spending billions of dollars annually advertising and marketing their products to the American consumer. For the most part, these prescription drugs and over-the-counter medications help people to live longer, better lives by controlling or eliminating disease, infection, illness or by simply improving the person’s quality of life to some degree.
Unfortunately, drug side effects account for more then 200,000 deaths per year in the United States alone. Drug companies are paying out on a record number of settlements and verdicts for recalled drugs and drug side effects lawsuits.
As the drug companies continue to spend billions of dollars on public relations and advertising, they are neglecting to adequately warn consumers of the potential drug side effects until it is too late.
At Schmidt & Clark, we know this to be true because we are contacted on a daily basis by people just like you who are looking for legal representation and information regarding a drug recall or over-the-counter medication that has been the subject of a drug recall.
The manufacturers of prescription and over-the-counter medications have a responsibility to consumers to provide products that are safe and effective when used as intended. In addition, these manufacturers need to thoroughly warn consumers when a drug has the potential for side effects.
The Defective Drug Litigation Group at our law firm is an extremely experienced team of trial lawyers that focus exclusively on the representation of plaintiffs in drug side effect lawsuits. We are handling individual and group litigation nationwide and currently accepting new drug side effect cases in all 50 states.
