Paxil® Birth Injury Lawyers

Our network of Paxil® birth injury lawyers are available to investigate birth injury cases on behalf of parents, nationwide, who believe their infants suffered a birth defect as a result of the antidepressant, Paxil®. We have extensive experience when it comes to representing people and families who have suffered from injuries caused by another's negligence.

We believe that the makers of Paxil®, GlaxoSmithKline, acted negligently by failing to properly warn patients of the potential birth defects associated with the drug. If your child was born with a heart or lung defect and you believe it may have been caused by Paxil® or another similar drug, contact our firm for qualified and experienced legal representation.

Paxil® Birth Injury Lawsuits

The National Law Journal reports that GlaxoSmithKline has settled almost every birth defect lawsuit in the mass tort program. According to reports, the drug maker lost the first case that went to trial in October 2009. The family of a boy who allegedly suffered heart defects from exposure to Paxil® during pregnancy was awarded $2.5 million.

To date, according to the National Law Journal, the company has agreed to settle almost 200 Paxil® cases total, the majority of which allege cardiac defects. The settlement amounts are confidential.

Compensation May be Available

Birth injuries are devastating. Our firm recognizes the emotional suffering and life-long challenges you and your infant may face. As a result, we have dedicated a large part of our practice to advocating for the rights of families affected by defective drugs.

Our mission is to recover the maximum amount of compensation available so you can get the highest quality medical care for your child. A financial award cannot reverse the damage done; however, it can help ease the burden of the challenges ahead.
