Frequently Asked Questions about the Ortho Evra Patch and Other Defective Drugs
Helping victims of the Ortho Evra Contraceptive Patch
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, such as the Ortho Evra patch, 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, such as the Ortho Evra contraceptive patch.
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, Kugel Mesh Hernia Patch, Ortho
Evra Patch, AMO Complete Moisture Plus, Avandia, Terbutaline,
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.
