Taking On
Big Pharma
Pharmaceutical Expertise
We take on pharmaceutical companies that put profits over patient safety. Our attorneys understand drug approval processes, clinical trials, and the evidence needed to prove a drug is dangerous.
Mass Tort Experience
Many dangerous drug cases involve mass tort or class action litigation. We have the resources and experience to take on the largest pharmaceutical companies in the world.
No Upfront Costs
Dangerous drug cases are complex and expensive to litigate. We advance all costs and only collect fees if we recover compensation for you.
Profits Over Patients,
Justice Demanded
When pharmaceutical companies rush drugs to market, hide dangerous side effects, or continue selling products they know are harmful, patients suffer devastating consequences. We hold these companies accountable.
Your Path to Recovery
We handle the legal complexities so you can focus on healing.
Medication History Review
We review your medical history, prescription records, and adverse reactions to determine whether a dangerous drug or medical device caused your injuries.
Scientific Analysis
We work with pharmacologists, toxicologists, and medical experts to analyze the drug's mechanism of harm and establish the causal link between the drug and your injuries.
Corporate Discovery
We pursue internal company documents — clinical trial data, marketing plans, safety reports, and internal communications — that reveal what the manufacturer knew and when.
Maximum Recovery
Whether through individual lawsuit, mass tort, or class action, we fight for compensation covering your medical costs, lost wages, pain and suffering, and punitive damages.

How Dangerous Drugs Reach the Market
- The FDA approval process is designed to ensure drug safety, but it's far from perfect:
- Inadequate Clinical Trials — Drug companies may design trials to minimize the appearance of side effects, use too few participants, or exclude high-risk populations.
- Suppressed Safety Data — Companies sometimes withhold unfavorable safety data from the FDA, doctors, and patients.
- Accelerated Approval — The FDA's accelerated approval pathway allows drugs to reach the market with less evidence, based on surrogate endpoints rather than proven clinical outcomes.
- Off-Label Marketing — Pharmaceutical companies illegally promote drugs for uses not approved by the FDA, exposing patients to unanticipated risks.
- Post-Market Failures — Some dangerous side effects only become apparent after a drug has been used by millions of patients, revealing rare but devastating adverse effects.
Types of Dangerous Drug Claims
- Manufacturing Defects — The drug was contaminated, improperly formulated, or produced under substandard conditions.
- Design Defects — The drug's design is inherently dangerous, and the risks outweigh the benefits for the intended use.
- Failure to Warn — The manufacturer failed to provide adequate warnings about known or foreseeable side effects, drug interactions, or risks.
- Marketing Fraud — The manufacturer made false or misleading claims about the drug's safety or efficacy.
- Our Detroit attorneys handle all types of dangerous drug claims and know how to build cases that hold pharmaceutical companies accountable.
Michigan Laws That Affect Your Case
Statute of Limitations
In Michigan, you have a limited time to file your claim: 3 years for personal injury (MCL § 600.5805). Missing this deadline typically means you lose your right to compensation permanently.
“Time is your most valuable asset after an injury. Contact a Detroit attorney immediately to ensure your claim is preserved.”
Modified Comparative Negligence
Michigan follows a modified comparative fault system. You can recover damages only if you are less than 50% at fault. Your compensation is reduced by your percentage of fault.
Michigan Insurance System
Michigan operates under a No-Fault (PIP required) system. Drivers choose PIP coverage levels; unlimited PIP was historically required but reformed in 2019.
