Current San Francisco Lawsuits
Our law firm is currently reviewing claims in the San Francisco area involving the following pharmaceuticals and medical devices:
- Zofran
- Xarelto
- Morcellators
- Vaginal Mesh
San Francisco Zofran Lawyer - The FDA approved Zofran (ondansetron) to treat nausea in patients following surgery, chemotherapy, or radiation therapy. Since 1998, however, the manufacturer is believed to have promoted the drug "off label" to treat morning sickness in pregnant women. Evidence now shows a higher incidence of birth defects in newborns whose mothers used Zofran during pregnancy.
Birth defects associated with Zofran include atrial septal defect (ASD), ventricular septal defect (VSD), heart murmer, craniosynostosis, gastroschisis, and other congenital malformations.
To file a Zofran lawsuit in San Francisco, we invite you to contact our office for a confidential review of your case. All consultations are provided at no cost and with no obligation to pursue a claim.
San Francisco Xarelto Lawyer - The blood thinner Xarelto (rivaroxaban) has been linked to severe internal bleeding injuries. Since Xarelto bleeding events have no means of reversal once they occur, these injuries are often life-threatening. Specific side effects include gastrointestinal bleed, intracranial hemorrhage, and stroke.
Evidence suggests the manufacturer of Xarelto failed to properly disclose significant safety concerns while at the same time promoting the drug as superior to other blood thinners such as Warfarin.
If you have questions about filing a Xarelto lawsuit in San Francisco, contact our experienced drug injury lawyers for a free and confidential review of your case.
San Francisco Morcellators Lawyer - Power morcellators are surgical tools used to remove uterine fibroids. The devices are known to spread uterine cancer in some patients, yet most women were never warned of the potential risk before surgery. In November 2014, the FDA issued nationwide safety warnings about the cancer-spreading risk of power morcellators and advised against use of the devices in almost all cases.
Lawsuits are now underway to compensate women diagnosed with advanced stage cancer following laparoscopic myomectomy or hysterectomy procedures that involved morcellation.
If you have questions about filing a morcellators lawsuit in San Francisco, we invite you to consult our experienced medical device attorneys at no cost.
San Francisco Vaginal Mesh Lawyer - In April 2014, the FDA issued safety warnings to San Francisco and other U.S. consumers about serious health risks associated with vaginal mesh implants.
Vaginal mesh has been widely used in surgical procedures to treat pelvic organ prolapse (POP) and stress urinary incontinence (SUI). But a growing number of women report serious complications such as erosion, perforation of organs, pain with intercourse, recurrent prolapse, and multiple revision surgeries.
Over 70,000 women have filed lawsuits against the device manufacturers, with settlement negotiations now underway. If you have questions about filing a vaginal mesh lawsuit in San Francisco, we invite you to contact our firm at (866) 808-2424 or online for a free and confidential evaluation of your case.
About San Francisco Drug & Device Litigation
Lawsuits involving defective drugs and medical devices are often believed to be class actions, where a single lawsuit is filed on behalf of all victims. While dangerous drugs and devices can affect thousands of patients nationwide, our firm pursues these claims on an individual basis. This means our lawyers represent you in a separate lawsuit against the drug or device manufacturer and litigate your claim according to the unique facts of your case. Most importantly we pursue compensation for the full range of your legal damages as opposed to simply recovering a fixed portion of class action proceeds.
No Legal Fees
We represent all our San Francisco drug injury clients on a no-fee, contingency basis. This allows our firm to carry your case to a fair resolution without imposing any financial burdens on you and your family in the process. Instead we recover our legal fees and costs only as a percentage of any favorable settlement or judgment we obtain at the conclusion of your lawsuit.
