Attorney Jason Turchin is a #1 Best Selling Author in Personal Injury and Car Accident Law, on the Super Lawyers list, has been featured in the ABA Journal, and acts as a legal correspondent for several media outlets.

As part of our investigation, we look for patterns of injuries and death as are related to particular medical devices and medications, review medical research and literature, consult with medical and research experts as needed, review marketing materials of drug and device manufacturers, and off label uses and warnings of the devices and drugs, among other factors. While many medications and medical devices are safe, profitability for the drug manufacturers and medical device companies sometimes make them rush products to market either despite testing showing adverse effects or without doing sufficient testing and research.

At the Law Offices of Jason Turchin, we can help fight the drug companies and medical device companies to try and get the most money you are entitled to your your injuries or the wrongful death of a loved one.

If your case involves the accidental death of a family member, our firm also has a Probate department who can assist with setting up the necessary probate estate to bring your claim. We can also work with your own probate attorney if you have to make the process as easy as possible.

As part of your medical care, if you incurred medical expenses, we can fight to get all of your medical bills reimbursed or paid for out of any settlement or verdict for any injuries caused by the faulty medical device or medication. We can also seek compensation for your lost wages and any out of pocket expenses you have, in addition to pain and suffering.

If your child sustained surgery or died, you may also be entitled to recover money and other damages for your child or as a survivor of the child.

We look forward to speaking with you more to see how we can help you with your injury or wrongful death case. We work on a contingency fee, which means we don’t get paid any money unless you get compensated.
