Start by scheduling a free consultation to discuss your situation. We will review your medical records, product information, and any related recalls.

In California, you generally have two years from the date of injury to file a personal injury claim, with some exceptions in product liability cases. Timelines can vary based on who is being sued and how the injury occurred. It is important to consult with an attorney promptly to preserve your rights and avoid missing deadlines.
Damages typically include medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering, along with future medical costs and diminished earning capacity if applicable. Calculations depend on medical prognosis, career impact, and the extent of liability of the drug or device manufacturer.
Many dangerous drug and medical device cases are handled on a contingency basis, meaning you pay no upfront fees and only pay if we recover money for you. This arrangement helps ensure access to legal help regardless of your financial situation.
Bring any medical records, prescriptions, test results, billing statements, device packaging, labeling, and any correspondence with manufacturers or insurers. Also note any warnings or recalls related to the product and a list of health care providers involved in your treatment.
Most cases settle before trial, but some may go to court if a fair settlement cannot be reached. We prepare every case for trial to protect your interests while pursuing the best possible outcome.
Case duration varies with complexity, the number of liable parties, and whether settlement is possible early. Some cases resolve within months; others may take longer while we gather evidence and negotiate, or proceed to litigation.
A recall or warning does not automatically end your claim. We review all evidence to determine liability and the best path to compensation. Recall information can still support your case and may impact settlement discussions or judgments.
