If you suspect harm from a drug or device, start by consulting a Parkside attorney who handles product liability matters. Collect any medical records, prescriptions, device documentation, and notes about your symptoms. An initial review can help determine whether you have a viable claim. A no-obligation consultation will explain your options.
Depending on the case, a family member or caregiver may file on your behalf if you are unable to participate. In general, the person bringing the claim must have suffered injuries and have a legal interest in pursuing compensation.
California statutes of limitations vary by the type of injury and the defendant. In many cases, you have a limited period to file a claim, so timely consultation is important.
Most personal injury cases involve a contingency fee agreement. You typically owe nothing upfront; legal fees are paid from any settlement or judgment.
Possible compensation includes medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and, in some cases, future care costs and punitive damages where permitted by law.
Many cases are resolved without going to trial. If a settlement cannot be reached, we prepare for trial and present your claim clearly in court.
Fault is determined by showing that the drug or device caused your injury and that the conduct of the defendant contributed to the harm. Investigations, medical testimony, and product analysis support these findings.
If a manufacturer operates abroad, California law may still apply if the harm occurred in California or involved California residents. We evaluate jurisdiction and applicable law on a case-by-case basis.
If you are not satisfied, you may request a change of counsel. We will review your situation and discuss options for continuing with another attorney or staying on with our firm.
