What types of medication and device cases can you help with?
As more and more products are being developed and as drugs and devices are being rushed to market without adequate testing and research, we hear news of growing numbers of injuries caused by hidden side effects of defective devices and dangerous drugs.
It is true that medications, prescription drugs, and medical devices and implants are meant to make us better, to heal us, and to improve our lives. But unfortunately, too often these products and pills cause serious harm and even death.
Just because your doctor prescribes it, does not mean it won’t hurt you.
If you have been hurt by a medication or device, you may have a legal case. Many pharmaceutical companies are embroiled in lawsuits currently for numerous medications and devices. And still more arise every day.
If you have been hurt or made sick by any of the medications or devices listed below or have suffered permanent or severe injury or harm from any pill or medication or device, call us at NB&W immediately to discuss your legal rights.
