Durham Product Liability Lawyers
In the increasingly competitive marketplace, manufacturers rush drugs to market and advertise aggressively to recoup their investment. For example, in exchange for speedier drug reviews, drug companies promise the U.S. FDA that they will deliver clinical trials guaranteeing the effectiveness of their drugs.
Since 1992 over 69% of promised drug trials have never been completed. The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission is charged with monitoring products for safety violations, but companies may not comply with these regulations even after warnings and fines. The result is that some drugs and products have been recalled at later dates, often after many people were injured from dangerous side effects or accidents suffered as a result of product defects.
Our firm represents victims who live in Durham, North Carolina and elsewhere who have been injured from these types of defects. If you’ve been injured while using a recalled drug or product, contact us today for a free conversation about your situation. Our legal team will let you know their opinion about your case by the next business day.
NC Drunk Driving Accidents

However, in North Carolina, victims of car accidents in which the driver was charged with driving while impaired may be entitled to punitive damages.
