Women Makes $4 Million Deal

November 12th, 2007: Glenn Phillips

A Bellevue woman who was severely injured three years ago in a collision involving a State Patrol trooper has been awarded a $4 million settlement.

The victim was home for the 2004 winter holidays when her vehicle was T-boned by former Trooper Josh Stuart’s, according to Patrol spokesman Capt. Jeff De Vere.

Terlinchamp suffered traumatic brain injuries and required months to recover, according to a lawsuit she filed last year in King County Superior Court. The Patrol accepted responsibility for the accident once the facts of the case were known.

Stuart resigned in 2006 during the investigation, which revealed that the accident had been avoidable.

Trasylol Pulled Off the Market

November 5th, 2007: Glenn Phillips

Germany’s Bayer has suspended temporarily the global marketing of its anti-bleeding drug Trasylol, which has been linked to a higher risk of death. Trasylol is aimed at preventing blood loss in patients with an increased risk for blood loss during heart bypass surgery. The drug, approved in 1993 and known generically as aprotinin, has been under a cloud for more than a year amid data suggesting it might boost the risk of death, serious kidney damage and stroke, so the step was not unexpected.

If you or a family member has been injured in the state of Washington by Trasylol, please contact the product liability lawyers at Phillips and Webster, PLLC. With easy accessible offices in the Seattle, Washington; Bellevue, Washington and Woodinville, Washington areas.
