Ortho Evra and Legal Compensation

Getting Legal Compensation for an Ortho Evra Injury or Death

Ortho Evra Lawsuits

If you experienced serious side effects from the use of Ortho Evra, or a person died due to an adverse reaction while using the Ortho Evra birth control patch, you may have a claim for legal compensation.

Legal compensation claims involving injuries or death caused by the use of the Ortho Evra contraception patch are made by filing a lawsuit in court.

Statutes of Limitations for Lawsuits

All states have statutes of limitations that determine the time period allowed to file an Ortho Evra lawsuit. The applicable statute of limitation, or deadline to file claims, varies from state to state, and the personal injury statute of limitation deadline can be different from the wrongful death statute of limitation deadline within the same state. For example, in some states a personal injury claim must be filed within 3 years from the date an Ortho Evra contraception patch injury is diagnosed, while a wrongful death claim must be filed within 2 years from the date of a death. In some states, the statutes of limitations may be as short as 1 year from the date of diagnosis or death.

Because of these varying deadlines, you should not delay seeking a law firm to provide legal advice and legal representation if you have suffered an adverse reaction from the Ortho Evra patch.
