Compensation is available for those who have sustained femur fractures caused by Fosamax

Hundreds of cases involving femur fracturing from long-term Fosamax use are expected to go to trial. Merck & Co. has already set up a huge $48 million fund dedicated to all possible lawsuits surrounding one severe Fosamax side-effect. Weitz & Luxenberg is ready to help you get compensated for your losses. We are up-to-date on all angles of the Fosamax issue and can help those who have sustained femur fractures get proper compensation for their losses.

So many in desperate need of compensation

Patricia is a single mother of three at the end of her rope. She is 48 years old and her kids are all in their teens. Being a pharmacist, Patricia considers herself to be knowledgeable of all of the current popular medications. Five years ago she started taking Fosamax to prevent osteoporosis, but now she is the victim of multiple femur fractures. Even as a pharmacist she was not informed of the dangerous side-effects of this common osteoporosis drug.

Patricia’s life right now is in shambles. She has paid out of her own pocket countless amounts of medical bills, hospital costs, devices to help her walk, and nannies who can help make dinner and clean the house while the kids are at school. This has caused her to go into massive credit card debt, and she is unable make the car payments or mortgage. In addition, the stress is inhibiting her ability to focus and causing her a great deal of depression. She has expressed the need to seek psychological counseling, but simply cannot afford it.

Weitz & Luxenberg can help count the countless. We can make sure that all the money you have put forth involved in your femur fracture injuries is accounted for, and we can help you pursue compensation which can pay you back for all of them. The ordeal you have to endure related to long-term Fosamax use is not your fault, and we can make sure you get just compensation for it.
