Hurt by Vioxx, the Ortho Evra Birth Control Patch, or Other Dangerous Drugs/Devices in Bridgeport, New Jersey?
FREE Legal Advice From a Drug and Medical Device Attorney


If you've been hurt by a dangerous drug like Vioxx or a faulty medical device like a Knee Replacement, you deserve compensation for your pain and suffering. You may be worried that filing a drug lawsuit means that you will be suing your physician. This isn't the case. In drug and medical device lawsuits, you are suing the makers of the item that hurt you, not your physician, who is not responsible for your injuries.

In 2002-03, the DOJ reports, the injury trial categories with the highest estimated median damage awards included medical malpractice and product liability cases, such as those involving dangerous drugs and medical devices.

Drugs and medical devices are meant to help people who use them, not cause harm. Makers don't always fulfill their obligation to make their products effective and safe, and oftentimes put making money before their customers. Residents of Bridgeport can turn to the attorneys at Weitz & Luxenberg to fight back against negligent drug and device makers. Weitz & Luxenberg's personal injury lawyers are experts in lawsuits involving Accutane, Vioxx, Bextra, Guidant Defibrillators, and other medications and medical devices. A lawsuit against a drug or device's makers can get you compensation for your pain and suffering and relief from the burden of medical bills and lost wages.

To begin your medical device or drug lawsuit, please fill out this short form. Your claim will be reviewed within one day. If you have a loved one in Bridgeport who could use the help of a drug attorney, please click here to refer them to Weitz & Luxenberg.

Please be advised that Weitz & Luxenberg may not be able to represent all lawsuits in all areas of New Jersey due to state and federal statutes.
