You may be legally entitled to significant compensation without having to ever appear in court.
If you took Elmiron® and developed eye damage like macular degeneration, you may be entitled to substantial compensation from the manufacturer.
Given that Elmiron® sales amount to at least $150 Million per year and is the only IC prescription on the market, countless Americans may be at risk of developing serious eye damage.
If the drugmaker did not disclose the link between Elmiron use and serious vision damage and failed to warn patients about this risk you may be awarded compensation for medical bills, lost earnings, and pain and suffering.
These lawsuits are not a class action. We fight each lawsuit separately. But the lawsuits may join into a multidistrict litigation (MDL). This should expedite the negotiation and settlement process.
Plaintiffs can be anyone who developed maculopathy after taking Elmiron.
The statute of limitations to file suit is short. In most states, it is only a year or two. Therefore, victims should consult a lawyer right away.
We believe everyone should have access to justice so we do not charge any upfront fees.
We only get paid if you get paid. If we don't get you a settlement, we don't get paid.
In addition to legal fees, there are various expenses that must be paid to others in order to prepare your legal matter. For example, payments must be made to obtain necessary reports or copies of necessary documents, to employ court reporters to take depositions, to obtain licenses or permits from governmental authorities, to file suits in courts of law, in addition to other outside entities that are necessary to help your cause. Generally, the amounts of these charges will be in direct proportion to the complexity of the matter involved. The easier your matter is to solve, the less these costs will ordinarily be.
At the start of your legal matter, we will try to estimate for you the amount of out-of-pocket expenses which may be incurred on your behalf. We will discuss with you whether or when you will be required to reimburse us for these expenditures which are made on your behalf to further your legal cause.
No. Most of our cases that have settled so far have settled without any court appearance. Many people have received hundreds of thousands of dollars in compensation and the total time they spent was probably less than an hour or two (to get signed up and provide us with the necessary information to get medical records and the proof we need.)
