Texas Drug Injury Lawyer

Serving throughout the Great State of Texas

Texans trust the medication prescribed to them by doctors to make them feel better, ease pain, and improve their quality of life. Unfortunately, aggressive pharmaceutical giants push their “wonder drugs” on doctors, often untested or with ignored test results showing serious and sometimes fatal side effects.

Patients throughout Texas with diabetes, heart problems, depression, and other serious illnesses look forward to taking these drugs with the promise of a more comfortable life only to be faced with severe side effects, such as pulmonary hypertension, hemorrhagic strokes, kidney damage or failure, addiction, and even death.

The Texas drug injury lawyers at Daniel Stark believe these aggressive pharmaceutical companies need to be held responsible for negligently pushing drugs onto doctors and patients, ultimately causing devastating drug injuries. These pharmaceutical companies often use biased labs to run tests and often omit or misrepresent the seriousness of the side effects these drugs can have in Texas patients.

The costs of a Texas drug injury can be overwhelming, involving hospital stays, rehabilitation, physical therapy, additional medication, and sometimes emergency surgery. The mental and emotional strain can further harm victims and cripple their families as well. These are all costs that can be recovered from the pharmaceutical companies for your injuries, and the Texas drug injury attorneys at Daniel Stark will fight to help you get the compensation you deserve.

If you believe you or a loved one has suffered a serious drug side effect, speak with your physician immediately. Do not discontinue using any medication until you have spoken with your doctor. Then contact the highly skilled Texas drug injury lawyers at Daniel Stark. We work with discretion, determination, and understanding, and will fight to protect you against aggressive pharmaceutical giants who may try to deny your claims.
