"... have a proven record of dedication to our clients in serious injury and death cases caused by misconduct, defective products, toxic chemicals, and sexual abuse.
Our team of consumer lawyers are recognized nationally as class action specialists in consumer fraud, defective product, toxic chemical, price-fixing, anti-trust violations and securities fraud. Our record speaks for itself.
More than 2,000 patients at the Redwood City Kaiser hospital may have been exposed to hepatitis C and B during gastrointestinal examinations there. In serious cases of hepatitis C, a liver transplant is required, this is unlike AIDS, which can now be treated for many years. Some medical practitioners have stated that hepatitis C is actually worse than AIDS, for that reason. At the Redwood City Kaiser hospital, malfunctioning sterilization equipment prevented colonoscopy tubes and similar devices from being sterilized properly. This has created a risk for thousands of people who underwent invasive gastrointestinal procedures, such as colonoscopies, from Oct. 30, 2003 to May 3, 2004. If you fall into that group, you are urged to get a blood test as soon as possible. Please contact our law firm, if you have further questions. Or call us at 800.921.1776."
