What Is the Lawsuit About?
Many lawsuits have been filed against manufacturers of opioid-based drugs for misleading patients and doctors about the safety of long-term use of the drugs for pain management and other issues that could have been treated with non-opioid based substances. Women who found themselves addicted after simply following doctor’s orders had to continue taking the drugs through pregnancy because suddenly stopping the use of opioids could lead to miscarriage. That resulted in an increase in the number of babies exposed to opioids in-utero and born with neonatal abstinence syndrome. Manufacturers are being blamed and plaintiffs are seeking to hold them responsible for the medical needs of these babies.
Why Would I Qualify For This Lawsuit?
If Any of the Questions Below Apply To You, You May Qualify:
- Are you a woman who received a prescription for opioids to manage pain?
- Did you use opioid-based drugs for several months or years?
- Did you become addicted to opioids?
- Were you advised to continue taking opioids through pregnancy?
- Was your baby born with neonatal abstinence syndrome?

How Much Money May I Be Entitled To?
There have been multiple lawsuits started in 2019 against the manufacturers of opioid drugs. Lawsuits are recent and still ongoing and no settlements have been awarded as of today.
What You Need To Know
- Settlement amounts vary on a case-by-case basis.
- Our legal team works with you to investigate your claim and decide on the most appropriate course of action.
Many factors should be investigated before initiating a lawsuit. Some of those include the reason why a mother may have been prescribed opioids for long-term use, what the mother’s life was life prior to initiating opioids (whether she had any history of previous drug abuse), whether she turned to street drugs after her doctor stopped prescribing opioids, and documentation attesting that the baby was in fact addicted to opioids at birth and the extent of his or her injuries. The Angell Law Firm will help you fight to recoup money for past and future medical expenses, pain, and suffering for both mother and child.
Joining A Class Action Lawsuit Is Straightforward
All it takes is finding the lawsuit which applies to you, contact a participating attorney, and then speaking with them to begin the process. Many times these attorneys don’t even charge you for their time but take a portion of the judgment. So the more you’re awarded, the more they make.
