Vioxx lawsuits by non-US residents

After we published our first report on Vioxx recall cases outside the United States, there is some more good news for Vioxx recall victims. Some estimates put the number of these non-US Vioxx customers to be approximately 80 million, but due to the challenges of language, distance, expensive phone charges, and time difference, it is not always easy to find the right law firm in the United States.

Several Vioxx attorneys in the United States are now welcoming overseas Vioxx victims to contact them via email (the cheapest way to communicate if you live overseas). Typically, the Vioxx attorney has a simple form on its websites where you provide complete information about you, the lawyers evaluate your case to see if you are eligible to participate in the United States legal process, and then initiate contact with you to discuss the next steps.

The Law Offices of Bagolie Friedman has gone even one step further and has created the International Vioxx Practice Group specifically to work with Vioxx victims overseas, particularly in the UK, and Australia for now. The firm has tremendous experience in working with overseas clients since it has represented them when they were injured in any way while visiting the United States. The firm also has Spanish speaking attorneys on their team.
