Los Angeles Law Firm Leading Several Major Cases in 2023

Baum Hedlund personal injury lawyers have several bellwether cases heading for trial in 2023. The upcoming cases involving Zantac, toxic baby food, and the Gardasil HPV vaccine represent the first in each litigation to go before juries.

1)Baum Hedlund Vice President and senior trial attorney R. Brent Wisner will serve as co-lead counsel in the first Zantac trial scheduled for February 13, 2023. Wisner, who earned worldwide acclaim in the Monsanto Roundup litigation by earning two landmark verdicts totaling over $2.3 billion, also serves on the plaintiffs' leadership in the consolidated Zantac cases in California state court (Ranitidine Product Cases JCCP 5150). Example case number: RG20061705.

The Zantac lawsuits are against defendants GlaxoSmithKline, Pfizer, Sanofi-Aventis U.S. LLC, Sanofi US Services Inc., and Boehringer Ingelheim. Plaintiffs allege the drug manufacturers failed to warn that Zantac (generic: ranitidine) can degrade into a cancer-causing substance called N-Nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) when taken as directed.

2)Wisner and Baum Hedlund associate attorney Pedram Esfandiary (who worked with Wisner on the Monsanto trial teams) will also bring a first-of-its-kind baby food lawsuit to trial on May 2, 2023. The lawsuit N.C., a minor, v. Hain Celestial Group, Inc. et al. (Case No. 21STCV22822, Superior Court for the State of California, County of Los Angeles) alleges several major baby food companies knowingly sell products that contain dangerous amounts of toxic heavy metals. Studies show that children exposed to arsenic, lead, and mercury are at risk for developing autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).

3)Baum Hedlund also co-leads the Gardasil multidistrict litigation (MDL) for plaintiffs who allege the HPV vaccine caused them severe auto-immune injuries. This summer, the U.S. Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation (JPML) issued an order consolidating dozens of Gardasil human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine injury cases before a federal judge in North Carolina. The order allowed gardasil lawsuits filed throughout the U.S. to move into coordinated discovery and pretrial proceedings. In October of 2022, the judge overseeing the Gardasil MDL appointed Baum Hedlund senior shareholder Bijan Esfandiari to serve as co-lead counsel for plaintiffs. Esfandiari believes the first case in the Gardasil MDL will go to trial at some point in 2023. The Gardasil MDL is captioned In Re: Gardasil Products Liability Litigation MDL No. 3036.

4)Lastly, Baum Hedlund and Shawn Brown Law, filed the first federal lawsuit (Case No. 2:22-cv-00048) against gun manufacturers, the school district, law enforcement, and other defendants for their roles in the Robb Elementary school shooting in Uvalde, Texas. Baum Hedlund attorney Stephanie Sherman is leading this case on behalf of several Uvalde families. While a trial date has not yet been set, this case has generated significant attention to important safety issues affecting Uvalde and the rest of the country.
