How do you succeed in a defective drug or medical device claim?
Like other product liability claims, succeeding in a defective drug or medical device claim requires proof of a design or manufacturing defect or proof that the instructions or warnings on the drug or medical device were inadequate. To prove these claims requires an extensive knowledge both of the medical and scientific issues but also of the complex regulatory structure surrounding the FDA’s approval process for drugs and medical devices.
Why choose Faraci Lange?
Faraci Lange has represented a large number of victims of Vioxx, defective silicone breast implants and many others over our history. These claims require extensive research and understanding of the complex biochemical interactions which can cause injury. Our legal nurse consultants are extremely helpful in working with the experienced attorneys in this field to review the extensive medical literature and filings with the Food and Drug Administration searching out the proof that the manufacture knew or should have suspected that the drug could cause injury.
Merck has now offered a settlement totalling five billion Dollars to compensate people who suffered embolic strokes and heart attacks while taking Vioxx. Every single one of Faraci Lange’s Vioxx clients appears to qualify for these payments. This is no coincidence. We performed extensive research and carefully screened cases so as to only bring meritorious claims. Our reputation and history of success in these claims are two important reasons to choose Faraci Lange for your defective drug claims.
