When a drug, device, or product that was meant to help you ends up causing harm, the damage isn’t just physical. It can upend your finances, shake your confidence in the system, and leave you wondering who- if anyone – is on your side.
At Foster James Law, we’ve seen the internal memos. We’ve read the clinical trial results that never made it to public view. And we’ve represented people who had no idea their suffering was the result of a calculated decision – not just bad luck.
If you’re here because something went wrong and no one will give you a straight answer, you’re not alone. Our personal injury attorneys can review your case and help you understand your legal options.
Let’s look at the kinds of cases where we’ve helped people hold powerful companies accountable.
Defective Drugs
Prescription medications should improve your health, not make things worse. But too often, drug manufacturers put profits before safety. They downplay risks, rush through approvals, or fail to warn the public about serious side effects. And when people get hurt, those companies expect them to deal with the fallout on their own.
Our lawyers represent clients who have suffered serious complications after taking dangerous or defective medications. These include drugs that were later recalled, those pushed for off-label uses, and medications that were approved despite limited or misleading clinical data.
Pharmaceutical companies have teams of lawyers to protect them. You should have a legal team protecting you. If a drug harmed you or someone you love, reach out. Our drug injury lawyers can investigate your case and help you take legal action.
Defective Medical Devices
Medical devices are supposed to improve your quality of life—but when they’re poorly designed or rushed to market, they can do the exact opposite. Devices implanted in your body should meet the highest safety standards. Unfortunately, that doesn’t always happen.
We’ve seen how defective implants, surgical tools, and monitoring devices can fail patients. In some cases, the damage is immediate: internal injuries, infections, or device migration. In others, problems show up years later, often requiring more surgery and leading to long-term complications. We handle medical device claims involving:
- Joint replacements that fail early
- Surgical mesh that causes internal injuries
- Heart and vascular devices linked to serious complications
Medical device companies are required to test their products thoroughly and disclose risks. If they skip steps or hide problems, and that decision leads to harm, they can be held accountable. An medical device attorney from our team can help build a strong case for you.
Defective Products
Most of us use dozens of products every day without thinking twice—electronics, appliances, tools, toys. But when a product is built poorly, lacks proper warnings, or is unsafe by design, it can cause serious injuries. We represent people injured by consumer products that should have been safe to use. This includes products that:
- Catch fire or explode during normal use
- Cause electrical shocks or burns
- Break or malfunction and cause injury
Product liability cases require careful investigation. We work with engineers and safety professionals to find out what went wrong and who’s responsible—whether that’s the manufacturer, the distributor, or both.
You shouldn’t have to suffer because a company cut corners. If a defective product caused your injuries, our product liability attorneys are here to help you seek justice.
Personal Injury
No one prepares you for what comes after an accident. The paperwork. The calls. The endless back and forth with insurance companies. It’s like getting hurt once and then reliving it through every delay and denial. Insurance adjusters will try to downplay your injuries, shift the blame, or push you into a fast settlement that only helps them.
At Foster James Law Firm, we don’t just file paperwork – we control the narrative. We document everything from the start: the ways your injury changed your day-to-day life, your career, and your future plans. We don’t let companies reduce your life to a number on a spreadsheet. Our lawyers have represented clients in:
- Serious car and truck accidents resulting in long-term injuries or permanent disability
- Slip and fall incidents caused by unsafe property conditions or code violations
- Workplace accidents
- Burns, scarring, or disfigurement caused by preventable hazards
- Wrongful death claims filed by surviving family members
Every move we make is about putting pressure on the other side to pay what’s truly fair. So, before you sign anything, talk to our personal injury attorneys to explore your legal options.
Toxic Exposure
Exposure to toxic chemicals or harmful substances can slowly damage your body over time. And by the time symptoms appear, the harm is often serious and permanent. Toxic exposure cases are some of the most difficult to uncover and prove. But we’ve worked with clients facing serious harm due to:
- Asbestos, silica dust, and other occupational toxins
- Contaminated water or air near factories or industrial sites
- Harmful chemicals found in household products or packaging
These claims often involve large corporations that try to deny any responsibility. And when we take on a toxic exposure case, we dig into environmental records, corporate practices, and medical evidence to connect the dots.
If you’re living with a disease or condition that may have been caused by long-term chemical exposure, speak with our toxic exposure attorneys today.
Your Story Matters. Let’s Talk.
Most people avoid calling a lawyer because they think it’ll just bring more confusion. At Foster James, we cut through that from the start.
No complex legal talk. No playing coy with timelines or outcomes. You’ll know what’s happening, when it’s happening, and what to expect. We won’t promise you the moon – we’ll show you exactly what we can fight for and why it matters.
We’ve helped people rebuild after devastating injuries. We’ve gone toe-to-toe with major corporations. But what matters most is that we stay human, honest, and accessible at every step.
We don’t charge anything upfront. And we don’t get paid unless you do. If you’re ready to talk, we’re ready to listen.
