Pharmaceutical Liability

Newsflash: The antibiotic Levaquin is being targeted for causing irreparable injuries to patients.

Pharmaceutical Liability Litigation at The Lanier Law Firm

Pharmaceutical Liability The Lanier Law Firm is a pioneer in VIOXX litigation, most notably winning a substantial verdict against Merck & Co. in the very first VIOXX lawsuit to go to trial. In August 2005, The Lanier Law Firm proved to a jury in Brazoria County, Texas, that Merck & Co., the manufacturer of VIOXX, was liable for the death of the plaintiff Robert Ernst. The jury found that Merck failed to warn doctors of the dangers of VIOXX, and that Merck's negligence caused the death of Ernst, a physically fit triathlete who suffered a sudden heart attack.

The Lanier Law Firm has been building a case against Merck since 2002. In addition to VIOXX-related claims, The Lanier Law Firm also represents clients who have suffered injuries involving Avandia, Bextra, Celebrex, Accutane, Neurontin, Ortho Evra and Viagra, as well as other drugs.

The Pharmaceutical Liability Practice Group at The Lanier Law Firm has decades of experience representing clients who have been injured as a result of the negligence of others. Several firm attorneys have also served as counsel to large national insurance companies, giving them a unique perspective on how to build the strongest case on behalf of their clients. The pharmaceutical attorneys at The Lanier Law Firm offer a unique blend of compassion, empathy and zealousness, and are committed to achieving nothing less for their clients than the fullest remedies available under law.
