Due to the complexity of truck accidents, which we have mentioned above, it can be quite a challenge to determine who is at fault. It could be that only the driver is at fault, or the trucking company that owns the vehicle is liable. Sometimes, it could be the company that loaded the truck who is responsible. The exact cause of the accident needs to be established first, after which the fault can be laid at the correct person or entity’s feet. You need an experienced truck accident lawyer to do this.

The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) has conducted a study on the causes of truck accidents and they list the following – from most to least common – as the matters most often reported as primary factors in truck accidents:

\t
• Brake failure
\t
• Traffic problems (congestion, previous accident)
\t
• Prescription drug use
\t
• Speeding
\t
• Drivers being unfamiliar with the roadways
\t
• Roadway problem
\t
• Failure to stop in time at crosswalks or traffic control devices, etc.
\t
• Over-the-counter drug use
\t
• Inadequate surveillance
\t
• Fatigue

While the idea of slipping, falling, and suing a property owner is often joked about, if you are the one left with the aftermath of a slip and fall injury then you will know that it is no laughing matter. As slip and fall accident lawyers, we have helped many people recover for the damages they incurred after slipping / tripping and falling.

If you have been involved in a slip and fall accident, then there are a few steps that you should follow:

Step 1: Get help

Alert nearby staff and/or people that you have fallen and injured yourself. Ask someone to call an ambulance so that medical professionals can tend to you.

Step 2: Take note of the current environment

Make sure you are aware of the details of your surrounding. Was the floor wet? If so, was there a safety sign? Did you fall due to a handrail giving way? Were there loose floorboards or clutter on the floor?

Step 3: Report the accident

The accident needs to be reported to the property owner as well as the tenant of the property. Even if it was a minor trip and fall, document the date, time, and people who were on duty when you fell.

Step 4: Document everything

Document the time you missed from work due to having to go to the hospital, any tests that you had to undergo, all your injuries, the names and numbers of the people who helped you, and be sure to keep photographs of your injuries.

Step 5: Decline to give statements

It is not always in your best interest to deal directly with the property owners yourself. You do not have to place blame or accept any type of apology – contact your slip and fall lawyers first.

Step 6: Get in touch with a Personal Injury Lawyer

It is important to get in touch with a personal injury lawyer who specializes in slip and fall accidents. Proving that your injuries are the result of someone else’s negligence is not always easy – you will need an experienced legal professional guiding you through the process. The lawyer can also pursue your claim and keep you updated on the progress of your claim.

Research indicates that prolonged use of Depo-Provera, a contraceptive injection containing medroxyprogesterone acetate, may significantly increase the risk of developing meningiomas. These are tumors that grow in the protective membranes of the brain and spinal cord. Although many meningiomas are non-cancerous, their growth can lead to serious health issues such as vision loss, seizures, and neurological complications. Studies suggest that women who use Depo-Provera for extended periods may face up to a 5.6-fold higher risk of developing these tumors.

Depo-Provera can have various side effects. Some side effects associated with Depo-Provera include:

\t
• Irregular Bleeding: Spotting or missed periods, especially in the first few months.
\t
• Weight Gain: Some users report weight increase.
\t
• Bone Density Loss: Long-term use can decrease bone density, increasing fracture risk, though this reverses after discontinuation.
\t
• Mood Changes: Mood swings, depression, or anxiety may occur.
\t
• Headaches: Ranging from mild to severe.
\t
• Delayed Return to Fertility: It may take months for fertility to return after stopping.
\t
• Serious Side Effects: These can include Meningioma tumors, blood clots, and severe bone density loss.

If you're considering Depo-Provera, discuss these potential side effects with your healthcare provider. If you experience severe side effects, consult a Depo-Provera lawyer to explore potential legal options.

Depo-Provera is a birth control shot that contains medroxyprogesterone acetate, a hormone that prevents pregnancy. It is typically administered every three months to prevent ovulation. However, research has shown that prolonged use of Depo-Provera may be linked to serious health issues, such as an increased risk of brain tumors, particularly meningiomas.

If you or a loved one experienced complications after using Oxbryta, consult with Shamis Gentile PA who specializes in pharmaceutical litigation. They can review your medical history, the timeline of events, and the evidence to determine if you have a valid claim. You may be entitled to significant compensation.

Pfizer voluntarily recalled Oxbryta after studies indicated an increased risk of complications, including vaso-occlusive crises (VOCs) and fatalities, in patients with sickle cell disease.

Oxbryta (voxelotor) is a prescription medication approved for the treatment of sickle cell disease (SCD). It works by increasing hemoglobin levels and reducing red blood cell destruction. Despite its benefits, concerns over potential adverse effects have led to legal claims in some cases.

Individuals who experienced severe side effects or harm after taking Oxbryta and believe that the manufacturer failed to adequately warn about those risks may be eligible to file a lawsuit. Family members of affected individuals, particularly in cases involving significant harm or death, may also be eligible to pursue legal action.

Oxbryta lawsuits typically arise from allegations that the drug caused unforeseen side effects or complications not adequately disclosed by the manufacturer. Other cases might involve issues like improper marketing practices, false claims about the drug's efficacy, or failure to warn users about specific risks.

The mass torts lawyers of Shamis & Gentile, P.A. have the ability and know how to successfully litigate transvaginal mesh lawsuits. There are many occasions from which it is necessary to bring a transvaginal mesh lawsuit, due mostly in part to the alarming reports of serious complications from these treatments. It has become such an issue that the FDA issued a public safety notice in late 2008 about vaginal mesh devices and in 2011 warned that complications from TVM products are not rare, and that alternative treatments may be preferable. In 2012, the FDA issued a requirement that manufacturers of the products conduct new clinical trials to assess the risk of serious complications. This has led to a huge transvaginal mesh recall.

Many brands are being reviewed for potential recovery against, among the most common being Bard G2 IVC filter, Bard Recovery IVC filter (manufacturers of the Eclipse brand IVC filter), and Cook IVC filter (manufacturers of the Celect brand IVC filter and Gunther Tulip filter). These companies failed to adequately warn about the risks of the problems and negligently designed a defective and unreasonably dangerous IVC filter. It is our opinion that the manufacturers will ultimately be forced to pay substantial financial compensation to resolve these cases.

As we speak, the attorneys at Shamis & Gentile, P.A. are investigating cases from veterans from around the country who suffered partial or total hearing loss as a result of being given defective 3M Combat Arms Earplugs. These earplugs were distributed by the U.S. military for many thousands of soldiers, including those headed to combat zones, from 2003 to 2015. The problem with these particular earplugs was a design flaw, which rendered them too short to be properly inserted into the ear canal. This, in turn, made it impossible for the earplugs to provide the proper amount of protection and, ultimately, led to significant hearing damage and hearing loss for the unfortunate veterans who wore them.

In July 2018, a federal judge in Michigan was the first to declare in a published dispositive opinion that a ringless voicemail message (RVM) is a “call” regulated by the TCPA. In the Telephone Consumer Protection Act class action lawsuit Saunders v. Dyck O’Neal, U.S. District Judge Gordon J. Quist of the U.S. District Court, Western District, Michigan, noted Congress’ broad descriptor “any” in prohibiting “any call,” and noted that the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and the Supreme Court have generally construed the TCPA broadly in ruling that new and emerging telephone technologies are governed by the TCPA, including voicemail messages, text messages and email-initiated text messages.

The Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) of 1991 was created in response to consumer concerns over telemarketing. It is a U.S. Law and it sets guidelines for companies who are engaging in telemarketing practices. The TCPA requires companies that are making telephone solicitations maintain do-not-call lists, and it places greater restrictions on the use of automated telephone equipment.The TCPA was revised in 2013 to include clear and conspicuous disclosure for marketing text messages. The result of this revision led companies to be required to request that consumers opt in, and the opt in isn’t allowed to be a requirement to complete a purchase or other transaction with the brand. In 2014, the TCPA was revised to prohibit only those calls made without the “prior express consent of the called party.” In July 2015, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) released the text of its omnibus Declaratory Ruling and Order, which was the result of petitions from a number of trade associations and companies who sought clarifications from the TCPA of 1991. The most prominent issue was the defined scope of an “automatic telephone dialing system”. The Ruling expands the meaning of this term and subjects more types of dialing equipment and platforms to a case-by-case determination of their inclusion within the TCPA.Despite the law being continuously updated over the years, the number of robocalls continues to skyrocket because the cost of this type of marketing is very low. Further contributing to the rise in robocalls is new software that helps disguise callers’ identities. VOIP services also enable companies to use robocallers from outside the U.S., which means they do not have to adhere to the law. The full text of the TCPA Act of 1991, which is still enforced today, can be found here.

If you are being bombarded by marketing messages, then it is good to know how to block ringless voicemail. Preventing robocallers from leaving a voicemail can be tough, but there are a few options.There are a number of spam blockers that can be downloaded from the Play Store. The biggest problem with these spam blockers is that there is no way to automatically backup your blacklist. If you lose your phone and you haven’t backed up the list in a while (or ever), you will have to start building your blocked list from scratch.Instead of building your list inside of the ad blocker itself, build it inside your contacts list. Create a contact called ‘blocked numbers’ and continue to add numbers to the list over time. This way, if you lose your phone or your phone breaks, you will still have a list on your sim card that can be used on your new phone or within a new ad blocker.If you aren’t sure whether the call you received is spam or not, Google the number. Many times, you will find that the number has received a number of complaints. In this case, you can add it to your blocked list.If you have an iPhone that runs on iOS 8 or higher, you can block it on your phone. Go to the Recent Calls tab in the Phone app, and tap the “i” icon at the right of the number that you want to block. If the number is in your Contacts list, open that contact’s page in the Contacts app. From the contact page for the caller or contact, scroll to the bottom of the page and tap Block This Caller.If you have an Android phone, just tap a number in your call log and hit Block/report Spam.

Different states have their own laws regarding ringless voicemail. On 1 July 2018, Florida Governor Rick Scott signed into law Senate Bill 568, which explicitly sweeps ringless voicemail technology within the state’s law. This new law makes it clear that unsolicited ringless voicemails are forbidden in the state of Florida. The Senate Bill 568 amended the definition of “telephonic sales call” to include “voicemail transmissions”, which are defined as “technologies that deliver a voice message directly to a voicemail application, service, or device”.Attorney General Maura Healey from Massachusetts, along with a number of others, are joining the fight against ringless voicemail. Companies have asked the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) for an exemption to the robocall rules saying that their voice messages shouldn’t be considered calls. Healey and other Attorneys General said the exemption would give companies a free pass to spam phones.If you run a call center or business that uses ringless voicemail, you should closely scrutinize your calling practices and technologies to determine whether you are operating within or outside of the law.

In a nutshell, ringless voicemail is a technology that allows messages to be directly delivered to a consumer’s cell phone voice mailbox. The voicemail is delivered without the phone ever ringing, so the message will be waiting in their voicemail box without them being disturbed.Real estate agents, for example, have seen much success with ringless voicemail. Instead of marketing properties haphazardly, some of them are sending a simple and short voice message asking potential clients if they are interested in selling their property.Ringless voicemail works through software. Once you have a list of the numbers you want to contact, you enter the cell phone numbers into the software program and schedule your message. The software calls the cell phone number but it bypasses the ring and leaves the contact a voicemail.Many of us avoid a phone call if we don’t recognize the number. People get so many phone calls nowadays that they don’t want to risk taking a call from someone who is selling something that they are not interested in buying. A large portion of people who won’t take a phone call from an unknown number are more comfortable listening to a voice message because they want to know who called it. It is for this reason that ringless voicemail is very effective.Test messages and ringless voicemail to contact your target audience can be two additional, efficient ways of communicating with your potential clients. The companies that are the most successful also use various forms of digital marketing such as email marketing, Facebook Messenger, and online blogs where potential clients can find more information. Ringless voicemail is only a small part of an arsenal of tools that can help companies increase their bottom line.This is still a new field of marketing and there are a number of petitions and court cases that can be drawn upon for more clarity. If you want to use ringless voicemail for your business, you are advised to learn about the laws in your state and consider hiring a commercial law attorney to guide you through the process so that you don’t expose yourself to lawsuits.

Ringless voicemail is a mechanism that enables companies to deliver a message to a cell phone without a human delivering the message. Software, such as automated direct voicemail broadcasting mechanisms, is used to deliver these messages to cell phones. The messages are pre-recorded and delivered directly to a voicemail so that the recipient’s phone doesn’t ring or disturb them. Marketers use this as a tool to communicate with clients because it is an affordable way to increase interest in their products and services.Ringless voicemail drops work by allowing a server to insert a voice message directly onto the consumer’s voicemail. It is seen as a non-intrusive message. The phone may ring, but the call is dropped and the message is left for the consumer, which means that no traditional call is ever made. The reason why ringless voicemail is classified under the TCPA is that of complaints and petitions from people who do not want to receive this type of communication, or because they feel that the communication they received wasn’t relevant to them.

The injuries that women are suffering from this transvaginal mesh implant are severe and debilitating and could have been avoided had people had the proper information. The edges of the mesh/sling cut through the skin after implantation causing infection and cutting into nearby structures sometimes puncturing the bladder, bowel, and uterus.Additionally, the petroleum-based synthetic material is particularly capable of causing infection because the material itself is a “breeding ground” for bacteria. Complications from these infections include incontinence, extreme pain during intercourse, UTI, back pain, inability to walk, etc. Some of these infections spread through the whole body and lead to death.

More than 100,000 transvaginal mesh lawsuits have been filed, making it one of the largest mass torts in history. Many of these cases remain unresolved, but the multimillion-dollar settlements and verdicts that have been reached to date bode well for mesh victims who await resolution of their cases. In addition, the punitive damages handed down by juries in some verdicts support the claim by women that manufacturers showed egregious misconduct in their failure to warn patients about mesh side effects.According to a class action blog, in August 2017, Endo agreed to pay $775 million to resolve the remaining 22,000 lawsuits filed over its vaginal mesh implants.

Vaginal mesh complications arise when surgical mesh, often used to treat conditions such as pelvic organ prolapse (POP) or stress urinary incontinence (SUI), fails and causes harm to patients. Thousands of women have reported complications following pelvic surgeries, such as mesh erosion, vaginal scarring, and chronic pain. These side effects from defective transvaginal mesh implants often lead to revision surgeries and, in many cases, legal action. Mesh complications may also include infections, injuries to the vaginal wall, and damage to surrounding organs. Many women experience mesh erosion, where the mesh material breaks down and damages internal tissue. These severe complications associated with transvaginal mesh have led to countless lawsuits as patients seek compensation for their pain and suffering.

Yes, it is required that you have taken name brand Suboxone Film in order to file a Suboxone lawsuit.

ndividuals who have suffered substantial adverse effects while taking Suboxone may qualify for a Suboxone lawsuit. This includes those who have developed severe tooth decay caused by suboxone or other serious dental issues.

A Suboxone lawsuit is a legal claim filed by individuals who have experienced adverse effects from the use of prescription Suboxone Film, a medication used to treat opioid addiction. The core of every Suboxone lawsuit typically revolves around claims that the manufacturers failed to warn patients about the potential side effects, particularly concerning oral health. Many individuals have reported that their use of Suboxone led to unexpected dental complications, including extensive tooth decay, damage to tooth enamel, and even the need for tooth extractions. These lawsuits allege that the product liability of Suboxone manufacturers stems from their neglect to adequately inform healthcare providers and patients about the risks associated with their product.

Suboxone can be administered in a variety of ways, such as by injection, by putting it under the tongue, through a patch, or even via an implantable device. However, the lawsuit for Suboxone causing dental damage only applies to Suboxone Film.

The FDA approved a generic version of Suboxone Film in June of 2018. Most insurances would have only covered a generic version of Suboxone Film after this date.

Suboxone (buprenorphine/naloxone) is an opioid that is used to treat opioid use disorder and chronic pain. Suboxone works uniquely on opioid receptors, allowing it to relieve opioid withdrawal symptoms, while also preventing many other opioids such as heroin from causing the desired euphoria.

Let us talk. We can discuss your circumstances and symptoms. The complications of hernia mesh might resemble other ailments. Although, there is not an official Physiomesh recall, the market withdrawal is a serious red flag.If you believe that you or a loved one has suffered any of these effects, call Shamis & Gentile, P.A. today for help with a hernia mesh lawsuit. Remember, we only recover if you do!

There have been two studies confirming that the Johnson & Johnson Ethicon Physiomesh Composite Mesh hernia patch had higher rates of hernia re-opening, called “recurrence” than similar brands. The patient was forced to undergo additional surgery to solve the problem. The manufacturer has since issued a “market withdrawal.” The FDA explicitly pointed out that this was not the same as a recall. What exactly is the difference? Truth be told, it is a matter for legal experts to decide. Perhaps, an official Physiomesh recall would have been too public. Either way, the manufacturer’s actions have shown that there is a problem with the medical device.

You might have heard of some of the problems associated with the Johnson & Johnson Physiomesh product. They even issued a “market withdrawal.” Does that mean I have grounds for a Physiomesh lawsuit?

Exactech has set up a website containing all the recall information and outlining the claims process. Patients are advised to call the Exactech-Broadspire helpline. Once you confirm that you have an Exactech polyethylene insert, a claim is started and a representative will get back to you with all the necessary information, more advice on how the reimbursement procedure, and all the forms you need to fill in.

The settlement could cover any medical treatment, including surgery costs, after your device replacement device fails. Medical expenses (past and future) Pain and suffering (past and future) resulting from injuries, treatment, and recovery, could also be included. While it is currently uncertain exactly what type of settlements can be expected when you successfully file a suit against Exactech, it is possible to make a general estimate. The average compensation for knee injury tort cases is $110,000, but Exactech recall cases may well result in a higher amount being awarded. Juries are likely to be relatively unsympathetic to a major medical device company that has placed thousands of patients at risk through sub-optimal design and packaging protocols. Punitive damages are likely to be a factor. All things considered, settlements could reach between $200,000 and $300,000.
