Yaz Lawsuit Update on Accuracy of Yaz Lawsuit Settlement Amounts

Yaz Lawsuit News Release

Yaz Lawsuit News Release

01/25/2013  Yaz Lawsuit  Update on Accuracy of Yaz Lawsuit Settlement Amounts: A variety of reports have been made about the Average Yaz Lawsuit settlement amounts.  Yaz Lawsuit settlement reports have indicated that the Average Yaz Lawsuit settlement amount is between  two hundred and two hundred and fifty thousand dollars. The broad range of average Yaz Lawsuit settlement amounts have many confused. Ultimately the current reports on Yaz Lawsuit Settlement amounts may bear little resemblance to the final average settlement amount for Yaz Lawsuits once all cases have been settled.

Yaz Lawsuit Settlement Amounts

The reason the Yaz Lawsuit Average Settlement amounts may ultimately be far different from what is currently being reported is a result of two basic reasons.  The first reason is that no all women who are eligible to file a Yaz Lawsuit have done so as of yet.  It is unknown and unknowable how many women that were injured by Yaz have yet to file suit. There will come a time when the time limit to file a Yaz Lawsuit has expired and at that point and only at that point, will it be known how many Yaz Lawsuit cases will ultimately be filed against Bayer.

The second reason that the current Yaz Lawsuit average settlement amounts may not be accurate is due to the fact that it appears that Bayer may be taking longer to settle cases that will result in the largest payouts.  This could be simply because these are more complex cases however, there may be another reason Bayer is delaying the settlement of cases that will result in large payouts. Bayer is owned by its stockholders and its stock is traded on the stock exchange.  Massive lawsuits like the Yaz Case can negatively impact a stock price.  The top executives at Bayer are required to keep their stock holders informed regarding anything that could have a significant negative impact on the company.  By delaying settlement of the Yaz cases that will result in the largest payouts, the average Yaz Lawsuit Settlement Amount remains lower than it would be if the larger potential settlements were included in the average.  If Bayer is able to delay the settlement of the cases that will result in the largest payouts until the time they can announce that the Yaz Lawsuit is essentially behind them, then the positive effect the news of the end of the Yaz Lawsuit could outweigh the negative news of any increase in the reported average Yaz Lawsuit Settlement.  There is no way to know if Bayer is taking these factors into consideration in determining the order in which they settle Yaz cases, however from the stand point of protecting their stock price, the possibility exists.

Yaz Lawsuit Settlements continue as more Yaz and Yasmin Lawsuits are filed

Yaz Lawsuit Settlements

Yaz Lawsuit Settlements

01/10/2013 Yasmin and Yaz Lawsuit Settlements: As 2012 draws to a close, the tally of Yasmin Lawsuit claims and Yasmin Lawsuits against Bayer continues to rise. Reports of most recent filings include allegations of death potentially caused by the use of Yasmin and Yaz. Reportedly, at least five new cases were recently added to the Yasmin lawsuit and Yaz lawsuit multidistrict litigation in the US district Court of Southern Illinois where the case is being presided over by Judge Herndon. Allegations against Bayer reportedly include negligence, liability and failure to warn. With Yazmin lawsuit numbers growing, Yaz Lawsuit Settlement talks are expected to continue.  It has been reported that Bayer has already offered Yaz Lawsuit Settlements to numerous plaintiffs and many have been accepted. If you were injured by Yaz or Yasmin, please contact us today to arrange a free legal consult about your Yaz Lawsuit.

Yaz Side Effects Lawsuit

Clinical studies of Yasmin and Yaz Side Effects continue with potential victims offering a fertile feeding ground for post market studies. For instance, if a woman developed a serious condition possibly related to Yasmin side effects, her case might be included in the studies. One recent Yasmin lawsuit allegedly claims a woman died following a stroke possibly related to one of the drospirenone containing birth control pills manufactured by Bayer. Studying actual cases of potential injury give scientists a close up view that will include past medical history as well as symptomology relating to the incident. Advancement of medical science while extremely valuable to the public as a whole is not likely to offer much in the way of consolation for grieving loved ones.

Reports suggest that Yasmin lawsuit settlements may include consideration for the possibility Bayer knew of the potentially deadly Yasmin side effects risks but failed to warn or adequately warn the public and healthcare professionals.  In January 2012, Judge Herndon postponed the bellwether trials for the Yasmin lawsuit and Yaz lawsuit multidistrict litigation in US District Court of Southern Illinois, and then ordered Yasmin lawyers and the defendant Bayer to begin Yasmin lawsuit settlements discussions. As January 2013 is upon us, Yasmin lawsuit settlements have begun and are expected to continue to the benefit of those allegedly harmed by potential Yasmin side effects.

There has been no Yasmin recall and it is not known if a Yasmin recall or Yaz recall is likely to occur. Women are urged to thoroughly research Yasmin side effects giving full consideration not only to published clinical studies but allegations made in Yasmin lawsuits as well.  Discuss any potential concerns with your healthcare provider and any potential legal concerns with a Yasmin lawyer.

Yaz Lawsuit News and Information

 

Bayer announced earlier this year that they intended to settle the outstanding  Yaz and Yasmin Lawsuit cases. It has been reported that Bayer currently faces in excess of ten thousand lawsuits over Yaz and Yasmin. The information we have received is unclear if these amounts include the settlement of Ocella Lawsuits as well.

Both Yaz and Yasmin were block buster drugs for Bayer and netted the company in excess of a billion dollars in revenues.  Neither Yaz nor Yasmin have been recalled by the United States Food and Drug Administration, although the FDA did issue new warnings for medical practitioners that prescribe these drugs. The logical assumption for  the FDAs new Yaz and Yasmin Warnings is to reduce the future number of injuries caused by Yaz, Yasmin and Ocella.

Considering the large volume of serious blood clot related injuries, many of which were fatal, there are many who believe that the FDA should issue a Yaz Recall, which would include Yaz and Yasmin. The FDA however is not quick to issue such recalls and is often criticized for being slow to act and allowing drugs to stay on the market that should be removed.  The FDA has an extremely small budget when compared to other Government agencies. The revenues of a single major pharmaceutical company can far exceed the average operating budget of the FDA. The FDA is also often criticized for conflicts of interest among the experts it employs as consultants to render opinions on drugs being considered for recall or other actions.

Whether Yaz, Yasmin and Ocella are ever recalled is yet to be seen. These fourth generation birth control products are not the only products of their kind that have been linked to blood clot related injuries such as Deep Vein Thrombosis, Pulmonary Embolisms and other blood clot related injuries. Numerous drugs similar to Yaz, Yasmin and Ocella are also the target of lawsuits over blood clot related injuries. Thus far Bayer is the only manufacturer that we are aware of that has publically announced its intention to settle the outstanding lawsuits against them.

Yaz Lawsuit Settlement News

Yaz Lawsuit Settlement News:  Contact (800) 611-7080. Bayer recently announced that they intend to settle many of the Yaz Lawsuit cases and Yasmin Lawsuit cases that have been filed against them. This is good news for Yaz Lawsuit plaintiffs who have filed claims as a result of injuries related to blood clots.

The announcement by Bayer that it intends to settle many of the outstanding Yaz Lawsuit cases came in close proximity to an announcement that Judge Herndon, the judge in the Yaz Lawsuit Multi District Litigation, had granted a third extension of time for Bayer to attempt to settle Yaz Lawsuit cases.

The fact that many of the plaintiffs in the Yaz Lawsuit will not have to go to trial is welcome news. The extra time granted to Bayer to settle cases will give law firms handling Yaz Lawsuit cases more time to add clients to their docket of lawsuits. Those injured by Yaz still have time to enter the Yaz Lawsuit before Bayer settles their existing docket of Yaz Lawsuit cases. The fact that more people injured by Yaz may have time to get their case settled through Yaz Lawsuit settlements is a positive development in the opinions of many watching the Yaz Lawsuit case.

If you had a blood clot related injury such as a stroke, a pulmonary embolism, DVT, or heart attack after taking Yaz, it is not too late to file your Yaz Lawsuit case and possibly have it settled in the first round of Yaz Lawsuit Settlements. Contact us today for more information.
