Choosing a pharmaceutical lawyer

Legal fees

The usual arrangement for hiring a lawyer in a dangerous drug or defective device case is a contingent fee agreement. The attorney agrees to be paid a fee only if the client's case is ultimately successful, either by settlement out of court or by a judgment following a court proceeding. The attorney then receives a percentage of the final amount recovered. This fee arrangement is helpful for most people with injuries from a drug or device because it does not require the person bringing the case to pay any money up front. Often the attorney may also be able to front the costs of litigation until the conclusion of the case.

If you or a loved one has suffered from a dangerous drug or defective medical device, you should immediately contact a plaintiff’s law firm that handles injuries.

Statutes of limitation and the need to act promptly

Most states have laws, called statutes of limitation, which prescribe how long after an event you may file a claim or a lawsuit related to the event. Because of these statutes, it is urgent that if you or a loved one believes you have a claim, you will want to contact an experienced plaintiff’s attorney so that your claim can be evaluated before the time limit is reached.
