Birth Defect Tragedy Comes to Light After Decades of Inaction

GlaxoSmithKline might sound more like the name of an ironic indie band than a drug manufacturer, but they are under fire these days for something far graver than a bad company name.

A heart-wrenching case out of Philadelphia this week highlights the importance of having an aggressive product liability lawyer on your side. A lawsuit filed by Debra Johnson more than 30 years ago is finally moving forward. Johnson alleges the clubbed hands and other sever deformities she inherited at birth resulted from her mother taking thalidomide, GlaxoSmithKline's morning sickness treatment drug.

Until the day comes when drug-induced birth defects are a thing of the past, it's essential to have a personal injury attorney who will stand tough against drug company abuses in product liability cases.
