Toxic Mold

Over the years, scientists have proven that some molds and fungi may be to blame for allergies, infections, poisoning, and other serious health complications. Sometimes, these toxic molds can be embedded in houses where homeowners can’t see them. Hidden and undetected, these molds may release powerful, poisonous toxins that can make children and adults silently sick. Often, people don’t know that toxic molds could be the culprits of their illnesses. If you or your family has been victimized in your home or workplace by toxic mold, contact us today for help.

Pharmaceuticals

It is an unfortunate reality that despite safety regulations and requirements, many harmful or inherently dangerous drugs such as Vioxx® and Risperdal® make it into the marketplace. In many cases, these drugs have been FDA-approved for public use without undergoing adequate testing for side effects. Although the FDA’s role is to regulate pharmaceuticals, ultimate responsibility for the drug’s safety lies with the drug manufacturer. Victims of dangerous drugs are entitled to compensation for their injuries from these companies, even if the drug has already been recalled. Our personal injury lawyers handle a variety of pharmaceutical litigation, including the following dangerous drugs:

Vioxx®

On September 30, 2004, Merck & Co. pharmaceuticals voluntarily withdrew their widely used arthritis medication, Vioxx® from the market. While effective at managing acute pain, Vioxx® was found to double a patient’s risk of stroke and heart attack in clinical studies. With nearly 80 million worldwide users affected, the Vioxx® recall represents perhaps the largest drug recall in history. If you or someone you love has suffered cardiovascular problems as a result of taking Vioxx® a lawyer from our firm can help protect your rights. Contact us, to speak with a lawyer today.

Risperdal®

Risperdal® is an FDA approved antipsychotic drug intended for treatment of schizophrenia. As the drug’s popularity has increased, however, many doctors have begun prescribing Risperdal® for off-label uses such as the treatment of dementia. Risperdal® has been linked to an increased risk of diabetes and stroke, particularly in the elderly. In April 2003, Johnson & Johnson, the maker of Risperdal®, sent a letter to thousands of doctors warning of the increased risk of stroke and blood clots in elderly patients. If you or someone you love has been harmed from taking Risperdal®, contact us for help.

Trucking Accidents

Semi-trucks are heavy users of our nation’s roads and highways. This trucking traffic is, for the most part, a safe and effective means of transporting goods. However, 18-wheelers pose very specific risks to other drivers and have caused some of the worst accidents on our roads today. Semi-trucks have dangerous blind spots. Their slow speeds in traffic can cause frustrated drivers to try to dodge around them, while their heavy loads can make it difficult to stop quickly at high speeds. The trucks also have high centers of gravity, making them more likely to tip when going around curves. If you or someone you know has been injured in the Ocean Springs, Mississippi, area, an experienced trucking accident lawyer at our firm could assist you with obtaining compensation.

ATV Accidents

All-terrain vehicles (ATVs) can be extremely dangerous if not operated correctly. With little to no state regulation of ATV use, almost anyone can operate an ATV regardless of age, licensing, or training level. Many times it is children who are injured or killed in ATV rollover accidents. Furthermore, prior to 1987 vehicle manufacturers produced inherently unstable 3-wheel ATVs. The number of accidents resulting from this design defect produced governmental regulation requiring a more stable 4-wheel design; however, many of these 3-wheel ATVs are still in use today. If you or someone you love has been seriously injured in an ATV accident, you may be entitled to financial compensation. Contact us today to learn more.

Products Liability
 
Product manufacturers are responsible for ensuring that defective or inherently dangerous products do not enter the market and injure consumers. If a dangerous or inappropriately labeled toy injures a small child, a set of defective tires causes an automobile accident, or a faulty electrical appliance causes a house fire, the product manufacturer and possibly others in the development and supply chain could be held liable. If you or your family member has been seriously injured while using a product in the correctly prescribed manner, an experienced personal injury lawyer could help protect your rights. Contact us today to set up a consultation.

Asbestos

Through the 1970s, asbestos was used as insulation in many buildings. The workers who installed the asbestos were regularly exposed to its dangers—inhalation of its dust is now known to causes asbestosis, lung cancer, mesothelioma (a rare form of lung cancer), and colon cancer. Even people who work or worked in buildings insulated with asbestos are at risk. If you are a loved one has been exposed to asbestos, our attorneys can help you with your case. Contact us today.

Mesothelioma

Mesothelioma is a rare and dangerous form of lung cancer linked primarily to asbestos exposure. This type of cancer affects the lining surrounding the lungs and stomach (the pleural membrane) and can take many years or even decades to develop. Treatment options depend on the stage at which the cancer is caught and might include surgery, radiation, or chemotherapy. If you or someone you love has developed mesothelioma as a result of asbestos exposure, you may be entitled to significant compensation. Contact us to learn more.
