Yaz Lawsuits

Yaz and Yasmin are growing in popularity because they are some of the only birth control pills on the market using drospirenone (DRSP), a specific hormone that can treat premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD). However, there are problems with both of these birth control bills, mainly relating to the rise in potassium levels you could experience when taking either of these drugs. In addition, Yaz has been marketed unsafely, confusing consumers who are interested in how it treats PMDD symptoms. Have you been hurt by Yaz or Yasmin? The right lawyer can help you win your case.

Why should I file a Yasmin or Yaz lawsuit?

Lawsuits can be time consuming, so it is easy to see why many women simply choose to move on to another form of birth control, never filing suit against Yaz/Yasmin manufacturer Bayer HealthCare Pharmaceutical. Not doing so could be extremely financially devastating, however. If you've developed serious medical problems because you used Yaz, your bills could end up costing hundreds of thousands of dollars. In addition, you might miss time at work, incur travel expenses, and pay for other things out of pocket. Winning a Yaz injury lawsuit can help you pay off these bills so you aren't ruined financially. Even if you don't need the money, however, it makes sense to file suit. Many other women have been hurt because they used Yaz or Yasmin, and your case will only strengthen theirs, sending a message to Bayer that their drugs are unsafe.

Do I need a Yaz attorney?

Technically, you don't need a lawyer to file a lawsuit. However, personal injury law is extremely complicated, and when you file a Yaz or Yasmin lawsuit, you're suing Bayer, one of the largest pharmaceutical companies in the world. They don't just have a good lawyer; they have a team of good lawyers, all working around the clock to prove you wrong. You need your own good lawyer in order to prove your case.

What qualities make up a good lawyer?

Although you should be concerned with price, in personal injury law, you likely won't pay many out of pocket expenses. Instead, your Yaz attorney will get a percentage of your money should you be awarded any when you win the case. Instead of focusing on money, look for a lawyer with experience. You want someone who knows personal injury law well, especially law regarding pharmaceuticals. You should also look for a lawyer that will devote time to your case, not hand off your case to inexperienced team members, and since you'll be sharing personal medical information, you should feel extremely comfortable around whatever lawyer you choose.
