Why You Need a Drug Injury Attorney

Pharmaceutical companies have large legal teams and deep financial resources to fight claims, making it extremely difficult for individuals to secure fair compensation without legal representation. Attempting to handle a drug injury lawsuit alone means facing complex medical evidence, aggressive corporate defense strategies, and intricate legal procedures—all while dealing with the physical and emotional toll of your injury. Without an attorney, you risk missing critical deadlines, undervaluing your claim, or having your case dismissed due to legal technicalities.

By working with an experienced drug injury lawyer in Mobile, you gain a powerful advocate who understands pharmaceutical litigation, product liability laws, and how to build a compelling case against negligent drug manufacturers. At Long & Long, we handle every aspect of your claim. Don’t go up against Big Pharma alone—let our team fight for you. Contact us today to get a free case review and learn your legal rights.

Understanding Drug Injury Claims in Alabama

Drug injury claims fall under product liability law, holding pharmaceutical companies, manufacturers, and other responsible parties accountable when dangerous medications cause harm. To pursue a successful drug injury lawsuit in Alabama, claimants must prove specific legal elements and follow key legal procedures. Below is a breakdown of the fundamental factors involved in these cases.

Key Elements of a Valid Drug Injury Claim

To establish a valid drug injury claim, you must demonstrate (through evidence):

  • The drug was defective/dangerous: The medication was unreasonably dangerous due to a design defect, manufacturing defect, or failure to warn of known risks.
  • It caused you injury or harm: You took the drug and suffered serious health complications.
  • There was direct causation between the drug and the harm: Clear evidence links the defective drug to your injury, often requiring medical records and expert testimony.
  • Damages: You incurred medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, or other financial and personal losses due to the injury.

Compensation Available in Alabama Drug Injury Lawsuits

Victims of dangerous or defective drugs may be entitled to significant compensation for the physical, financial, and emotional toll caused by their injuries. Compensation in drug injury lawsuits in Mobile generally falls into 3 categories: economic damages, non-economic damages, and punitive damages.

  • Economic damages: Measurable financial losses suffered as a result of the injury (ex., Medical expenses, lost wages, etc.).
  • Non-economic damages: Intangible damages suffered as a result of the injury (ex., Pain and suffering, mental anguish, etc.).
  • Punitive damages: Compensation intended to punish especially egregious actions from the defendant in order to deter similar conduct in the future (punitive damages are very rare).

How Much Could My Drug Injury Claim Be Worth?

The value of your case depends on factors such as:

  • Severity of your injuries and medical costs.
  • Impact on your ability to work and earn a living.
  • Pain, suffering, and long-term health effects.

At Long & Long Injury Attorneys, we aggressively fight for maximum compensation in every case. Our drug injury lawyers in Mobile will be able to evaluate your case and provide an estimate on how much compensation you could be owed. We’ll then negotiate with pharmaceutical companies to secure the full financial recovery you may deserve.

How to File a Drug Injury Lawsuit in Alabama

Filing a drug injury lawsuit in Alabama requires careful legal strategy, strong medical evidence, and strict adherence to deadlines. The steps below outline how to pursue compensation and hold drug manufacturers, medical providers, and other liable parties accountable.

Steps to Filing a Drug Injury Lawsuit

1. Seek Immediate Medical Attention

Your health is the top priority. Get a medical evaluation to document your injuries and receive the necessary treatment.

Retain copies of medical records, prescriptions, and test results to support your case.

2. Preserve All Evidence Related to Your Claim

Save medication bottles, receipts, and prescription records. Keep a record of any symptoms, side effects, and medical complications you experience. Document lost wages, additional medical expenses, and any other financial losses related to your injury.

3. Contact an Experienced Alabama Drug Injury Lawyer

Pharmaceutical lawsuits are complex, and the pharmaceutical manufacturers, distributors, or prescribers you are up against will have a team of lawyers on their side. Having a skilled attorney on your side levels the playing field and significantly increases your chances of securing maximum compensation.

At Long & Long, we offer a free consultation to review your case and determine your legal options. Your lawyer will investigate the claim, gather medical experts, and build a strong case against the responsible parties. You don’t pay anything unless we win for you.

4. Identify the Liable Parties

A lawsuit may be filed against:

  • Drug manufacturers for releasing a defective or dangerous medication.
  • Pharmacies or distributors for failing to warn about risks.
  • Medical providers for prescribing unsafe or improperly labeled medications.

In some cases, though rare, more than one of these parties may be liable for damages.

5. File the Lawsuit Within Alabama’s Statute of Limitations

Alabama law generally requires drug injury claims to be filed within 2 years from the date of injury. If the injury was not immediately discovered, a legal exception called the “discovery rule” may apply.

Missing the deadline could mean losing your right to compensation, so do not delay!

6. Demand Compensation and Prepare for Trial

Your attorney will calculate damages, including medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and more.

Most cases settle through negotiations with drug manufacturers and their insurers, but if a fair settlement isn’t reached, your case will go to trial.
