This page will look at Saxenda cancer and gastroparesis lawsuits. Saxenda is a weight loss drug that is similar to Ozempic. Several years ago, Saxenda was linked to an increased risk of pancreatic cancer. Now, new evidence has emerged that indicates that Saxenda might also cause a serious condition called gastroparesis (stomach paralysis).

Our firm is currently investigating Saxenda cases from anyone who used Saxenda for at least 6 months and was subsequently diagnosed with gastroparesis. Contact us at 800-553-8082 for a free consultation. Continue reading

Rybelsus is a semaglutide drug made by Novo Nordisk. Although approved for diabetes treatment, Rybelsus is now widely used for weight loss similar to other drugs like Ozempic or Wegovy. New research has shown that using Rybelsus at higher dose levels for weight loss can cause a host of very serious health problems. Health conditions linked to Rybelsus include: gastroparesis or gastrointestinal conditions, including bowel obstruction or cyclic vomiting syndrome, and NAION vision loss.

If you used Rybelsus and suffered any of these health problems or injuries, you may be able to file a product liability lawsuit and get financial compensation. Our firm is currently accepting Rybelsus lawsuits from individuals with any of the following injuries:

Hundreds of sunscreen recall lawsuits have been filed against Johnson & Johnson since the discovery of benzene in sunscreen prompted the company to recall 5 major brands of Neutrogena and Aveeno spray-on sunscreen. Thousands of additional sunscreen lawsuits are expected to be filed against J&J (and possibly other manufacturers) moving forward. These sunscreen lawsuits will likely be consolidated into a new “class-action” MDL.

In this post, we will evaluate how much these sunscreen recall lawsuit settlement amounts (if they are successful) by comparing them to settlements in prior mass tort cases involving defective products and similar injuries.

Our law firm’s purpose here is to provide the latest information in the sunscreen cancer lawsuits. Our firm is not handling these claims.

Every state in the U.S. operates facilities for the detention of juvenile criminal offenders who have been sentenced to incarceration or are awaiting adjudication. Recent investigations have revealed the sad reality that juvenile inmates in these detention facilities are commonly subjected to sexual abuse and assault committed by staff members who are supposed to protect them.

Thanks to new laws extending the statute of limitations in many states and increased public awareness of child sexual abuse, many victims of sex abuse in juvenile detention centers are now filing civil lawsuits and getting financial settlements. Our national sex abuse lawyers are currently seeking juvenile detention center sex abuse lawsuits from victims across the country.

Juvenile Detention Sex Abuse News and Updates:

The Federal Tort Claims Act (FTCA) is a crucial piece of legislation that allows private individuals to sue the United States in federal court for most torts committed by persons acting on behalf of the United States. Before the FTCA was enacted in 1946, the doctrine of sovereign immunity prevented such lawsuits. This doctrine essentially stated that “the King can do no wrong,” meaning that the government could not be sued without its consent. The FTCA was a significant departure from this principle, providing a mechanism for citizens to seek redress for injuries caused by the negligent or wrongful acts of federal employees.

Historical Background

The FTCA was passed in the wake of numerous claims against the federal government, especially after incidents like the B-25 bomber crash into the Empire State Building in 1945. Before the FTCA, individuals who were injured by the government had to seek compensation through special legislation passed by Congress. This process was cumbersome and often resulted in inconsistent outcomes. The FTCA was designed to streamline this process and provide a uniform method for individuals to pursue claims against the federal government.

The CPAP recall lawsuits against Philips have spawned a new group of related satellite lawsuits against SoClean, Inc. SoClean is a company that makes a product specifically used to sanitize the recalled CPAP devices.

Lawsuits have been filed against SoClean alleging that the company falsely marketed their product as “safe” and “healthy” for sanitizing CPAP machines and other breathing devices.

According to the lawsuits, SoClean’s product was unsafe because it emitted harmful levels of ozone gas, which exceeded the maximum safe limits set by the FDA.
