National Xarelto Attorneys Announce Over 100 New Xarelto Lawsuits

Lawyers handling national Xarelto lawsuits for the Onder Law Firm announce a status update on the Xarelto lawsuits pending for internal bleeding allegations in U.S. District Court.

Monday, June 15, 2015 - Attorneys handling national Xarelto lawsuits report that the number of cases consolidated as part of MDL 2592 now exceeds 550, according to court documents.* Each of the claims shares common questions of fact and have been transferred to the Eastern District of Louisiana for consolidated pretrial proceedings. Last month, the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation reported a total of 434 cases included in the litigation; as of June 15, 2015, the number of national Xarelto lawsuits has risen to 552, according to official court documents.

"As pretrial proceedings move forward, new cases are being added for inclusion in the MDL. The purpose of multidistrict litigation is to avoid duplicative discovery in order to promote efficiency and consistency in the court‘s handling of these Xarelto cases. As more Americans learn about the existence of Xarelto lawsuits making allegations of internal bleeding injuries and wrongful death, we expect the number of cases to continue to rise," explained Jim Onder of the Onder Law Firm.

Each of the 552 claims now pending in U.S. District Court in the Eastern District of Louisiana has been approved for consolidation because it shares "common questions of fact", according to court documents. In other words, these cases all make the same allegations against the same defendant(s). In the case of Xarelto lawsuits the plaintiffs include individuals and the family members of individuals who allegedly suffered severe internal bleeding while taking Xarelto, according to court documents. These plaintiffs allege the pharmaceutical company responsible for marketing Xarelto, Janssen Research & Development (a subsidiary of Johnson & Johnson) knew or should have known of the increased risk of serious internal bleeding caused by Xarelto and should have warned consumers, according to court documents. Furthermore, these Xarelto lawsuit claims allege plaintiffs were not warned of the lack of a known antidote to stop bleeding once it had started in a patient taking Xarelto, according to court documents.
