Jannsen Ordered to Pay $11 Million in Topamax Birth Defects Case: Now, AttorneyOne Can Provide Advice
San Diego, CA (PRWEB) December 06, 2013 -- AttorneyOne.com, a recognized authority on law, updated the website recently and they are now actively providing expert opinion, taking into consideration the recent news on Topamax Lawsuits.
According to Bloomberg (11/19/13), a Philadelphia jury ordered J&J's Janssen to pay $11 million in a case alleging that Topamax caused birth defects (case no. 110502251, Court of Common Pleas, Philadelphia County, Pennsylvania). Topamax, by Johnson & Johnson's Jannsen Pharmaceuticals, is approved by the FDA to treat patients with epilepsy who have certain types of seizures. In the lawsuit, the plaintiff claimed that her son was born with cleft lip and, according to the jurors, Janssen failed to adequately warn doctors for the plaintiff of the risks of Topamax.
Taking into consideration the latest developments, AttorneyOne.com updated the website and, now, can actively provide an expert opinion including how to get in contact with legal counsel easily and inexpensively in case of alleged Topamax severe complications. Sean Burke, director of Media Relations at AttorneyOne.com, adds that the relevant information illustrates that people continue to file Topamax lawsuits. "For that reason", he continues, "our focus should squarely fall on getting the word out and assisting people in finding the right legal assistance.”
A few days earlier, on October 30, Businessweek reported that a Philadelphia jury said that J&J's Janssen must pay $4 million in a lawsuit claiming that Topamax caused birth defects (case no. 110503459, Court of Common Pleas, Philadelphia County, Pennsylvania). In the lawsuit, the plaintiff claims that she took Topamax from August 2006 to February 2007 and her son was born on September 2007 with cleft palate and lip that required four surgeries.
