Why SimmonsCooper?

SimmonsCooper’s pharmaceutical litigation group has a focused understanding of the complex medical and legal issues involving dangerous drugs and devices. We have taken a leadership role on a national stage in several past and pending pharmaceutical lawsuits, including Ephedra/PPA, Vioxx, Ortho Evra, and more.

We have achieved verdicts and settlements for thousands of clients totaling more than $100 million for our pharmaceutical clients alone.* We are incredibly proud to have provided a way for our clients to have their day in court and get the compensation they deserve. At the same time, the positive outcome of these cases has sent a powerful message to drug makers that they are bound to a moral and legal duty to do everything in their power to ensure their drugs are absolutely safe. If they do not fulfill this obligation, and people get hurt, they will pay.

If you believe you may have taken a dangerous drug, or if you have a medical device that is malfunctioning, turn to SimmonsCooper. We have the experience, the knowledge and the resources to help you at this very difficult time.

Experience

Our firm was founded in 1999 with a keen focus on protecting and standing up for individuals, people just like you who have been injured because a company did not take the proper steps to protect customers, patients or workers. In recent years, our pharmaceutical litigation group has taken a proactive, leadership role in a number of highly publicized trials against some of the world’s largest pharmaceutical manufacturers.

Knowledge

The attorneys in our pharmaceutical group have a focused understanding of what it might take to build your case against a drug maker or medical device manufacturer. First, we have inside knowledge of the testing and approval process, so we can identify any possible missteps. We also have in-depth experience of the legal requirements all manufacturers must meet regarding labeling, warnings and marketing. We balance all of this information against your personal medical history. 

Resources

Our experience has put us in touch with qualified physicians and legal professionals across the country to give you the best possible chance at a positive outcome. Our investigators are adept at uncovering what these manufacturers knew and when they knew it, which is an integral part of your case.

Taking on pharmaceutical manufacturers, which include some of the world’s largest companies, requires tremendous legal and administrative resources to gather and process information and evidence for presentation at a trial. SimmonsCooper is more than equipped to take on the challenge.

We are here to provide you with legal counsel, of course, but also help you through this very difficult stage of your life.
