Actos Class Action Lawsuit

Question:

How do I join the Class Action for Actos after Developing Bladder Cancer?

ANSWER:

Although lawsuits over medications that injure hundreds of people are commonly referred to as a class action, Actos bladder cancer lawsuits are actually being pursued by the lawyers at Saiontz & Kirk, P.A. as individual cases. To join the litigation and determine whether you, a friend or family member may be eligible to pursue a settlement for bladder cancer caused by Actos, request a free consultation and claim evaluation by calling our office toll free at (800) 522-0102 or complete our on-line request form.

Although the Actos litigation remains in the early stages, it is expected that several hundred people will ultimately file a lawsuit against Takeda Pharmaceuticals after developing bladder cancer. It is likely that many of these cases filed in certain states or in the federal court system will be consolidated for pretrial litigation as part of a mass-tort or multidistrict litigation (MDL).

While this pre-trial consolidation is handled similar in many respects to how an Actos class action lawsuit would be managed, each claim remains an individual lawsuits where the plaintiff’s lawyer must establish that the injury was caused by side effects of Actos.

Because the impact of bladder cancer is going to be different for every user, it is not possible for a large number of claims to be aggregated into one class representative, as would be the case in an Actos bladder cancer class action.
