Mass Tort Litigation

Each year defective drugs and/or medical devices injure thousands of people. In order to prevent these defective products from reaching the public, the FDA has established specific protocols and regulations that are placed on the manufacturers. When a company fails to properly investigate their product or fails to report any problems or side effects, they put the health of their customers at risk and violate the law.

Injuries sustained from using defective drugs or medial devices can not only cause physical injury, but also financial hardship. Our attorneys have extensive experience in identifying and pursuing claims for our clients who have been affected by these products and drugs.

Our mass tort attorneys recently filed an Actos bladder cancer lawsuit against Takeda Pharmaceuticals. The lawsuit alleges that Actos, a drug prescribed to treat type 2 diabetes, is linked with an increase in the risk of bladder cancer for patients who take the medication for over a year.

If you believe you have been injured by a defective medical device or drug, please fill out the form to the right or contact us toll-free at (866) 981-4800.
