Fosamax Lawsuit Information: Working With Your Fosamax Attorney.

Please also see our article entitled "Seeking a Fosamax Lawyer" for information on how to find a Fosamax attorney.

The purpose of this short article is to examine in more depth some of the basic points that were raised in that other article. Remember:

• When you call for your appointment with your Fosamax lawyer, describe your Fosamax problem clearly. When did you take Fosamax? What did you take it for? How long did you take it for? How much did you take per day? What injuries did you suffer? For example, “I took Fosamax for two years ending January of this year for osteoporosis and suffered jaw death.”
• When you meet with your prospective attorney (either in person or on the phone), be prepared to give a clear summary of your situation and the history of your Fosamax injuries. It is helpful to bring a one page summary of all of your relevant information, including dates, times, names and addresses (in other words, the basic "who, what, where, when, why and how" information).
• Also come prepared with all the documents that will help you tell your story (especially prescriptions and medical records). By examining this information, your prospective Fosamax attorney can quickly determine whether he or she is in a position to take your case. Having all the records, hospital reports (and everything else you have gathered) also means that you are serious about your Fosamax case, and that you mean business.
• No interview would be complete without finding out what your own responsibilities would be. Ask if there are any tasks you would be involved in, and what your role in decision making would be.

If your case is one that your lawyer can take (and not all cases are), it is very important to do the following:

1. Return all phone calls from your attorney promptly. Often he or she needs certain information from you in order to file a particular legal paper or motion. Without your response, your Fosamax attorney may not be able to do the job you hired him or her to do.
2. The same goes for written requests. Cases such as Fosamax are often very "document intensive." This means that from time-to-time, your Fosamax lawyer may send you a written request for a document or statement. Please make sure that you respond to these requests promptly and accurately.
3. Your Fosamax attorney will really work hard to make your case as easy as possible on your end, but in the end, it is still a "team effort." Just remember that your attorney is on your side, and will always to happy to answer any questions that you may have during the course of the litigation.

If you have taken Fosamax in the past, and you have suffered any serious complication, you have certain legal rights, and you may have a legal case against Merck, the maker of Fosamax. You should thus contact an Fosamax lawyer as soon as possible.

Our law firm is currently investigating potential cases against Merck, and if you think that you may have been harmed by Fosamax, you are strongly encouraged to contact us. There is no charge, and no obligation. If we take your case, there is no fee for our services unless we win your case, or settle it in your favor.

On the other hand, if you fail to protect your legal rights now, you may lose the right to be compensated for your harm. (Persons seeking to preserve any potential legal claims should contact an attorney promptly, since all states have mandatory time periods in which lawsuits must be filed with the courts; otherwise, they may be forever barred).

Our firm has a great deal of experience in representing plaintiffs in “drug” cases.

In addition, we have the resources to handle our own cases. This means that when you call our firm, you talk to your own lawyer who has been assigned to your own case.

Please contact us now (your privacy is assured). The secure form below only takes a couple of minutes to fill out, but if you are uncomfortable sending your information over the internet, please call our toll-free number at 800.921.1776 to speak to an attorney. The call is free, and there is no obligation. Act now, as delays can harm your case.
