Our team of attorneys for dangerous drug side effects and defective medical devices are here to help if you or a loved one has suffered from a drug injury or lost their life due to a pharmaceutical company’s faulty product. Our team of victim’s advocates will work tirelessly to ensure that you and your family get every penny you deserve. Our team of drug injury lawyers have successfully litigated numerous lawsuit claims for victims of dangerous or unreported medication side effects.

Our team of attorneys argued settlements for over 1000 plaintiffs and families who suffered cardiac arrest and/or died after dialysis with GranuFlo or NaturaLyte. One of our class action lawyers, Burton LeBlanc, was appointed to the Plaintiff’s Steering Committee that oversees all litigation surrounding the GranuFlo and NaturaLyte litigation.
