Pellettieri, Rabstein & Altman lawyers have represented New Jersey residents since 1929 for personal injury, workers compensation, medical malpractice and mass tort & class action claims.

(PRWEB) October 22, 2004 -- Pellettieri, Rabstein & Altman lawyers have represented injured New Jersey residents since 1929 with offices in Princeton, Mt. Holly and now Nutley NJ. The firm is known for personal injury, workers compensation, medical malpractice and mass tort & class actions. And the firm has a track record specifically in representing victims in defective drug class action claims, including Fen-Phen and Baychol, as well as defective implant products for hip and knee replacements.

Americans pay higher prices, we are told, to ensure drug safety. We will hold drug companies to their promise -- we will hold them responsible for drug safety," explains Arthur Penn, Esq., chairman of the mass torts and class action claims litigation department at Pellettieri.

Clinical trials by the makers of VIOXX, confirmed significantly increased chance of heart attack, stroke and cardiovascular injury among VIOXX patients. In fact, the evidence was so clear and the consequences so severe that the study was cut short. The defective drug VIOXX has been withdrawn from the market.

Unfortunately, this comes too late for too many patients. The damage has already been done. And, Merck may have known more than earlier reported. So, according a statement released by the New Jersey law firms management committee, Pellettieri, Rabstein & Altman has decided its lawyers will represent victims of VIOXX.

Behind each injury is a tragedy, a story to be told, a wrong to be righted, responsibility to be taken, compensation due and closure needed, adds Joseph Gorman, Esq. an attorney in mass tort and class action claim litigation at Pellettieri.

If victims, or families of victims, of VIOXX who have had a heart attack, stroke or cardio-vascular injury, please contact lawyers at the New Jersey law firm of Pellettieri, Rabstein & Altman toll free at 1-800-432-LAWS (1-800-432-5297) or visit their website www.pralaw.com. Attorneys and medical teams are standing by to evaluate each case. Consultations are free.
