YAZ Wrongful Death Claims

Palmdale and Lancaster YAZ Birth Control Attorneys

Have you lost a loved one to stroke, heart attack, pulmonary embolism, liver disease, kidney failure, or gallbladder disease? Was your loved one taking YAZ, Yasmin or Ocella? It may be that you have grounds for a civil lawsuit to bring against the manufacturer who developed the drug or against the doctor who prescribed YAZ to your family member.

In California, the surviving spouse, parent or child of a person who has lost his or her life as a result of another’s negligent or wrongful conduct may be able to file a lawsuit against the party responsible for the situation that led to the loss. In YAZ lawsuits, this may be the manufacturer of the drug (Bayer Healthcare Pharmaceuticals) or possibly the doctor who prescribed YAZ. At the R. Rex Parris Law Firm, we represent clients throughout the Antelope Valley who have been injured or who have lost a loved one due to YAZ side effects. Your initial consultation with a Palmdale or Lancaster YAZ wrongful death attorney at our firm is free, and we will take this time to inform you of your legal rights, assess your unique case, and determine how we can help you.

YAZ Causing Serious Injury or Death

YAZ is one of the most popular forms of oral contraceptive in the U.S. today. It is estimated to comprise nearly 20% of the birth control market in the U.S. Some women that take YAZ have experienced serious side effects, and at times these may be fatal even when medical care is sought as soon as possible. In the face of a stroke, heart attack, or pulmonary embolism, a woman may stand little to no chance of survival. At this time, it is estimated that as many as 50 women have died as a result of YAZ or Yasmin.

Filing a YAZ wrongful death suit can be complicated, but at the R. Rex Parris Law Firm we believe that you should have the greatest opportunity of reaching a positive case outcome by bringing the responsible party to justice.
