Drugs and Defective Medical Devices
We depend on products such as medical devices, over-the-counter medications or prescription drugs to improve and extend our lives. However, manufacturers sometimes put profit over public safety by bringing an unsafe product or pharmaceutical into the marketplace, resulting in horrific, permanent side effects or death. Personal injury cases can hold these manufacturers responsible for their negligence.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are Consultations Free?
Yes. We always provide free consultations on personal injury claims. You’ll also be under no obligation when you get a free case evaluation from us. We want to make sure you find the best fit, and we’re confident that you’ll decide we’re the best personal injury attorney for your case. Don’t just search for “top rated personal injury lawyers near me” and pick the first one you find: Take the time to make a well-informed choice by talking to one of our attorneys first.How Much Is My Case Worth?
It’s impossible to know exactly how much a case is worth before legal action is taken. Factors that can influence how much a case is worth include the severity of your injuries, medical expenses, lost income, and pain and suffering. Our national personal injury lawyers will fight hard to get you the maximum compensation possible.Is it Worth Hiring a Personal Injury Attorney?
It’s absolutely worth hiring a personal injury lawyer because of the specialized knowledge and skills needed to file and litigate these claims. An experienced personal injury attorney can take on formidable opponents like insurance companies and drug manufacturers on your behalf, skillfully navigating the intricacies of case law and procedural rules as they advocate for your legal rights. With one of the top national personal injury law firms on your side, you can relax and let your accident attorney handle the details of your case.How Long Does a Lawsuit Take?
The circumstances of each lawsuit are unique, so it’s impossible to tell exactly how long any given personal injury lawsuit will take to litigate. Many factors can play into how long it takes to resolve your claim, such as difficulties determining liability, the challenges of calculating your case’s potential value, delay tactics by the opposing side, and how busy the court’s calendar is.Do I Need to Pay an Attorney’s Fees Up Front?
Law firms’ practices may vary, but at Parker Waichman, you’ll pay nothing up front and nothing out of your own pocket. Our personal injury lawyers work on a contingency-fee basis, meaning that we do not get paid unless you recover damages in your case. Your lawyer will get paid a percentage of the money received from any settlement or jury award.Will My Case Settle or Go to Trial?
Most cases settle before trial, but since every case is unique, it’s impossible to say with any certainty whether any particular case will settle or go to trial. If a settlement is reached, it often happens before the trial begins, but it can happen at any stage of a lawsuit. If you are offered a settlement, we will evaluate the offer and advise you on what we think is the best course of action.How Do My Medical Bills Get Paid?
In many personal injury cases, medical bills are initially covered at least in part by the victim’s health insurance. In car accident cases, no-fault insurance or personal injury protection coverage may also help to cover these costs. Securing a settlement or jury award for your injuries should reimburse you for out-of-pocket medical expenses as well as compensate you for future treatment that will be needed.Is There a Time Limit to Bring a Lawsuit?
Yes. All states have statutes of limitations that govern the amount of time you have to file a legal claim for your injuries. These deadlines can vary widely depending on the specifics of your case, but it’s important to act as soon as possible to preserve your legal rights. Failing to file a lawsuit on time can forever prevent you from seeking compensation.Should I Speak With the Insurance Company?
You should consult an attorney before you talk to the other party’s insurance company. Remember that they’re looking out for their own best interests, not yours, and so any statements you make to them could potentially hurt your case.How Do I Choose a Personal Injury Lawyer Near Me?
When you choose a personal injury attorney near you, you’ll want to meet with a few to find one you’re completely confident in. You might want to ask someone you trust for a recommendation, or you can do some research and make a list of firms that have a good track record with personal injury cases. Then, speak with each before you make a commitment to one.What Does a Law Firm Do?
A law firm offers legal support and representation to individuals and corporations. Their primary responsibility is to advise clients on their legal rights and to represent clients in civil and criminal cases. Exactly which tasks fall under these terms will vary from firm to firm. We recommend choosing a full-service law firm.What Does “Full-Service Law Firm” Mean?
A full-service law firm such as ours will assist you with every aspect of your lawsuit. The goal is to lessen the burden on the client through every step of the litigation process. Beyond simply representing you in a case, we will make sure to contact parties like insurance companies and seek any immediate benefits you could qualify for. What we do for each client will differ based on each case, but you can be certain we’ll be highly communicative and guide you every step of the way.Recent Articles
