Ashcraft & Gerel



The law firm of Ashcraft & Gerel was formed more than 50 years ago. We've grown steadily, and in an era when law firms are often short-lived, we are going strong and expect to be around for another 50 years. We are one of the largest personal injury law firms in the country that limits its practice exclusively to representing injured victims. We don't represent insurance companies. Our lawyers have well earned reputations for providing aggressive and high quality representation, and we know injury law. We're a big time law firm devoted to helping the little guy.

People injured by the prescription diet drug Fen-Phen and other dangerous, defective and unsafe drugs, medical devices and consumer products. These are called product liability claims, and they include the drug litigation over Baycol, the cholesterol lowering drug, found to cause serious injury and death due to a muscle condition called rhabdomyolysis, another cholesterol lowering drug called Crestor , found to cause kidney damage and rhabdomyolysis, and Propulsid , which is a heartburn medication withdrawn from the market after being linked to hundreds of heart rhythm abnormalities and many deaths. Three drugs recently found to be dangerous and that have prompted many lawyers to file lawsuits are Vioxx , Celebrex and Bextra. And if the FDA carries through on its recommended approval of Pargluva, there likely will be a huge number of lawsuits associated with the heart and stroke complications that were revealed in pre-approval studies. Medical product liability lawsuits also include Sulzer defective hip implant claims and the FDA's second round of defective hip implant recalls . Other relatively recent medical product liability claims involve (1) contaminated Olympus bronchoscopes , which have caused many people to become seriously ill from lung infections following broncoscopy and (2) failures associated with the stent-graft that is part of Guidant's Ancure endograft system. Guidant has also, as of June, 2005, recalled 50,000 defective cardiac defibrillators (sometimes called an ICD or implantable cardioverter defibrillator) that have, to date, resulted in at least 45 failures and at least two deaths.
