The Law Office of Ronald R. Benjamin is located in
upstate New York, and concentrates on civil litigation,
in particular personal injury lawsuits for clients
who sustained physical and emotional injuries as a
result of exposure to defective products, motor vehicle
accidents, medical malpractice and other types of
negligence. The attorneys in the firm currently have
over 50 years of combined experience including actively
pursuing litigation against pharmaceutical companies
for injuries caused by drugs.
The firm brings substantial experience to pursuing
products liability lawsuits on behalf of injured plaintiffs,
and has practiced extensively in the federal and state
courts of New York, and have associated with local
counsel in other states on these types of cases, as
well as prosecuted claims for our clients that are
transferred to various Multi-District Litigation (MDL)
proceedings in federal courts around the nation.
The Law Office of Ronald R. Benjamin investigates
and pursues legal action on behalf of our clients
against major companies that market harmful products.
We have obtained recoveries for our clients in a variety
of cases against various companies for defective products,
such as latex gloves and diet drugs (fen-phen). In
the case of a drug sold from 1947 to 1971 to prevent
miscarriages that harmed the fetuses – DES (Diethylstilbestrol)
-- Mr. Benjamin presented the expert medical testimony
that resulted in the highest single jury verdict in
United States history on behalf of a victim who sustained
injuries due to exposure to that drug.
Put our experience to work for you if you have been
injured by the fault of a company or other third party.
Examples of the cases against pharmaceutical companies
that we are accepting now include:
Prempro or Premarin
Vioxx - Celebrex - Bextra
Paxil
Zyprexa
Crestor
Effexor
In some cases, the manufacturers are alleged to have
rushed a drug to market without adequate testing and,
after profiting from sales, removed the drug from
the market at a later date, claiming they did not
know the dangers of the drug -- usually after devastating
and catastrophic harm to the patients who used the
drug. Our firm investigates these matters for our
clients and takes legal action on their behalf that
holds the manufacturers and sellers liable for money
damages.
