Baum Hedlund has successfully represented clients in every state in the U.S. In fact, we have represented more clients in antidepressant injury cases than any other law firm in the United States.

While representing our clients, we dig deep into pharmaceutical company files to discover the truth about what the company knew about the product’s risks, when the company knew of those risks and what efforts, if any, the company took to hide those risks. Only through legal action can anyone gain access to this type of information, as acknowledged in an article written about our firm on June 20, 2008 in the Wall Street Journal. We obtain documents through our litigation that not even the FDA has seen. We fight hard to get this information into the public domain to prevent others from having to endure similar tragedies.

Let our team of experienced attorneys make sure you are effectively represented in your Effexor case.
