Frequently Asked Questions

What should I do if I have concerns about my use of SSRIs and my baby’s health? 
You should contact your doctor if you have concerns about your baby’s health if you used SSRIs such as Prozac®, Paxil®, or Zoloft® during your pregnancy. You and your doctor can discuss your concerns and options.

What are my legal options? 
Your legal options and those of your baby may include the right to be compensated for any respiratory injury (i.e. such as Persistent Pulmonary Hypertension (PPHN)) that your baby suffered at birth as well as for the expense, mental anguish and inconvenience you may have suffered.

What are the legal fees? 
There are no legal fees unless you receive compensation in the form of a settlement or award. This is called a contingent fee and is a percentage of your award. We are only entitled to such a fee if we are successful in obtaining an award or settlement for you.

Do I have to advance money for costs? 
No, you do not have to advance any moneys for costs. We will advance the money necessary to pay for the out-of-pocket costs required to prosecute your case. If you receive a settlement or award, we will be reimbursed out of the settlement for the costs we advanced on your behalf. If you do not receive a settlement or award, you owe nothing.

How soon will you begin work on my case? 
As soon as we receive a signed Retainer Agreement, we will begin work on your case. The initial phase of this work will be to obtain medical records and evaluate your potential claims. To do so, you also need to sign and return HIPPA medical releases. IF AVAILABLE TO YOU, PLEASE BE SURE TO INCLUDE A COPY OF YOUR PROZAC®, ZOLOFT® OR PAXIL® BOTTLE WITH PRESCRIPTION INFORMATION, OR, IF YOU CANNOT COPY IT, WRITE THE INFORMATION DOWN ON A PIECE OF PAPER – INCLUDING THE NAME AND ADDRESS OF THE PHARMACY THAT FILLED YOUR PRESCRIPTION - AND SEND IT TO US WITH THE OTHER DOCUMENTS.
