Yaz lawyer Washington, DC

Yaz lawyer Washington, DCIf you took the birth control Yaz or Yasmin and suffered from any of its severe side effects, it is probably a good idea for you to discuss your situation with a Yaz lawyer from Washington, DC. If you are in the horrific situation of having lost someone you care about to the rare but fatal side effects of one of these drugs, a personal injury lawyer that is experienced with defending Yaz victims may be able to help you.

Yaz

Yaz (generic name, drospirenone-ethinyl estradiol) is a birth control medication that is a combination of two hormones. One is a kind of estrogen, ethinyl estradiol, and the other is a progestin, drospirenone. Females who take Yaz do not ovulate (release an egg) during their menstrual cycles. It makes vaginal fluid thicker, in order to help prevent sperm from reaching the ovaries and any eggs that may be released. It also changes the lining of the uterus (often referred to as the womb) to prevent a fertilized egg from attaching to it so that it passes out of the body instead of turning into a pregnancy.

While Yaz has been an effective form of birth control for many women, some of its dangerous and serious side effects have warranted a need for a good Yaz lawyer that is licensed to protect injured people in Washington, DC and its surrounding areas.

In addition to preventing pregnancy, Yaz is also used to treat premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD) and moderate acne in females who are over the age of 14 and have elected to take oral contraceptive pills as their method of pregnancy prevention. While it is not necessarily used specifically for these things, some of the added benefits of taking Yaz are that it often makes periods more regular, decreases blood loss, decreases menstrual pain and decreases the risk of ovarian cysts.

Dangerous Yaz Side Effects

Even with these benefits, Yaz has caused dangerous side effects in some of its innocent patients. If you are in the unfortunate situation of having experienced any of the dangerous side effects associated with Yaz, a lawyer in Washington, DC who is experienced with Yaz litigation, may be able to protect your rights and get you the compensation you are entitled to.

Some of the dangerous side effects that can come from taking Yaz may include but are not limited to:

  • Blood clots
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) 
  • Gallbladder problems
  • Heart attacks
  • Pulmonary embolism (PE)
  • Strokes
  • Numbness 
  • Weakness
  • Confusion
  • Rear eye pain
  • Compromised vision

The company that manufactures Yaz, Bayer Healthcare Pharmaceuticals, may be liable for the injuries that Yaz patients have suffered from. A personal injury lawyer in Washington, DC that is experienced with successfully defending the rights of Yaz victims, may be able to get you the compensation you are entitled to and deserve.

For a highly rated Yaz lawyer in Washington, DC, contact Cohen & Cohen any time of the day or night, any day of the year.

Ms. Skibicki handled my uninsured motorist claim exceptionally well. She understood the importance of balancing justice and compensation from those involved in the dispute. She fought for a fair settlement and genuinely listened to my concerns and complaints about the process, showing empathy throughout. She thoughtfully explained the pros and cons of pursuing further litigation if I was not satisfied with the offer, and she gave me ample time to make a decision that felt right for my situation. I never felt pressured to accept an offer that didn’t meet my needs. If I need legal assistance again, I would choose Cohen and Cohen and specifically request Ms. Skibicki as my attorney.

I retained Cohen & Cohen after I was struck by a car and fractured my spine. Adam was kind, knowledgeable and truly an advocate throughout the entire settlement process. He was incredibly responsive to my calls, emails and texts, and always took the time to explain how parts of the admittedly complex process worked with insurance, etc. Adam was able to secure a settlement of the offender's maximum policy limit, and the process was completed within a year. 10/10 recommend!

Nicole was a strong advocate on my behalf and worked diligently to ensure that I received a fair settlement from the insurance company.

If you want experienced legal representation, exceptional client service, and a team that truly cares about achieving the best possible outcome for you, this is the firm to choose. Thank you, Nicole and the entire Cohen & Cohen team, for your dedication and outstanding work!
