Birth Injuries & Defective Drugs or Chemicals

Honolulu Dangerous and Defective Drugs Attorneys

The law firm of Trecker & Fritz is proud to have been the first to successfully represent a client in a lawsuit for damages caused by the acne medication Accutane. This drug is a teratogen, or known cause of serious or fatal birth defects. In our opinion, Accutane poses the greatest risk to pregnant women of any drug since the now banned Thalidomide.

In addition to securing a huge settlement in the Accutane case, our effective lawyers have also achieved uncommon success in cases relating to other prescription drugs and dangerous chemicals like the fungicide Benlate. If you were harmed or your child suffered a serious birth injury caused by a dangerous or defective drug or if your property was damaged by a toxic chemical, contact our offices to schedule a free consultation.

Our dedicated team provides smart legal advice and aggressive advocacy for clients who have suffered due to any type of birth injury, including cerebral palsy, shoulder dystocia (damage to the brachial plexus also known as Erb's palsy) and hypoxic brain injury (oxygen deprivation, sometimes referred to as anoxia).

We will fight hard to get you the financial compensation you need to ensure that your injured child receives necessary rehabilitation, medical treatment and long-term care. We can also assist in life-care planning for your child. A special needs trust may need to be created and trustees appointed. We help families think ahead.

We also helped secure a multimillion-dollar settlement in a case brought against child protective services (CPS) for reuniting a vulnerable child with an abusive mother.

Whether your child suffered a serious or fatal birth injury, you were injured, or a loved one was harmed by a defective drug or dangerous chemical, contact us today to speak with a knowledgeable attorney in a free consultation.

"Both my wife and I have Doctorates. I work with the Department of Defense. When my wife was improperly treated by a doctor and suffered devastating injuries, we needed someone with experience and skill to help us pursue our claim. I went to my son who was a lawyer who represents doctors in malpractice cases. He found Trecker & Fritz. They were creative, intelligent and highly professional in obtaining a very good result for us."

"My original lawyer wanted me to settle for the first offer from the insurance company. It was really a low offer since I had surgery and was unable to go back to my old job. Fortunately, Trecker & Fritz was willing to take over my case. I was really happy with the result and their handling of my case."
