In never working with a lawyer before, we were afraid that we wouldn’t even know if our lawyer was doing what he was supposed to be doing and that we would be confused throughout the process. These fears turned out to be completely unfounded. He was relentless in dealing with the other side and communicated the status of the case frequently so we were up to date on what was happening. We really appreciate all of his work and couldn't have asked for better representation.

Our oral
sodium phosphate lawyers have recently begun investigation cases across the
country related to the dangers of this drug. Most sodium phosphate is routinely before colonoscopies.Over the past several years, the US Food and
Drug Administration have received an alarming number of reports and they have
subsequently linked the drug to onset of acute phosphate nephropathy.This is a very dangerous condition where
calcium phosphate crystal develops in your renal tract.This leads to kidney damage and impairment of
the renal functions.
Essentially
the kidneys are responsible for filtering out all waste products from your
blood.Any damage to the kidneys impairs
their abilities to filter out this waste and your body becomes toxic in itself.Of course this is extremely dangerous and can
lead to death.
On February
11, 2006, the Federal Food and Drug Administration announced their requirement
that the package of these drugs had to contain a Black Box Warning.Black Box Warnings are known for their black
outline on the packaging.This is
required by the FDA for drugs which studies have shown cause serious and fatal
side effects.Because of this Black Box
Warning, these drugs are no longer allowed to be sold over the counter, but
must be by prescription only.The
popular brand of the over-the-counter drug was Phospho-Soda manufactured by
Fleet, however this drug was discontinued after the FDA’s Black Box Warning.
These types
of cases fall into the category of Product Liability.Specifically, we often look to see if the
chemical and the design of the drugs themselves are defective.Essentially this means that if the drug
itself causes the injury, it is thereby defective.This is often easy to convince a jury;
however, the harder part is proving that the kidney failure itself is due to
the medication.This often involves use
of numerous experts.Often times it is
common for us to spend in excess of $100,000.00 in expenses to even get the
cases to trial.In our cases, we pay all
these expenses up front for our clients so we never ask you to pay anything as
we go along.More importantly, if we for
some reason do not recover, we do not ask you to pay any attorney’s fees nor
any of the case expenses.
If you’d
like to speak with one of our oral sodium phosphate attorneys because you believe
it has injured your kidneys, please contact us at 888.956.2487 or use the
contact form on this website.Please
note the law limits the amount of time you have to file suit.The deadline is different for each
state.But more importantly, as each day
passes, people’s memories fade and evidence comes scarcer.Thus, in significant and complex cases such
as these, time is always of the essence.
