Tylenol Autism Lawsuit in Denver

The attorneys at Boesen Law are representing clients in Denver who have been affected by Tylenol’s failure to inform them of the risks of taking acetaminophen while pregnant. If your child has been diagnosed with ADHD and/or autism and you took Tylenol, paracetamol, or acetaminophen while pregnant, call our office as soon as possible.

We will thoroughly review your case to determine if you are eligible for the mass tort against Tylenol in Denver. Important considerations include when you took tylenol, how much, and how often.

You may also be eligible for compensation if your child was prescribed tylenol within the first 18 weeks of life and later developed ADHD and/or ASD.

What Happens in a Mass Tort?

In a mass tort, cases are heard one at a time and settlements awarded accordingly. By contrast, a class action involves one plaintiff representing a large group of similarly affected individuals. For this reason, mass tort settlement amounts tend to be much higher than class action payouts.

How Much Can I Win in the Denver Tylenol Lawsuit?

The mass tort against the makers of acetaminophen containing drugs is in early stages. However, as evidence continues to evolve, it stands to be one of the largest mass tort payouts in history.

We expect high settlements to compensate, at the very least, economic damages suffered by families with children who developed autism or ADHD as a result of prenatal tylenol consumption. The medical expenses alone for children with neurodevelopmental disorder can be shocking. Some experts estimate that a family can spend $60,000 a year caring for a child with autism. Another study found that children with ADHD represent an economic burden that is five times greater than children without ADHD.

Then there is the emotional toll that a child with special needs can take on a family. Divorce rates are statistically higher in couples when one or more children have ASD. Forbes estimates that a divorce in 2023 averages between $15,000 and $20,000. The stress, psychological pain, and loss of companionship are no less important when it comes to this mass tort.

Economic damages we anticipate being awarded in the Tylenol mass tort include:

• Medical bills

• Lost wages

• Psychiatric bills

• Medication costs

• Special equipment

• Attorney costs

• Transportation costs

• Specialized education costs

• Extended childcare costs

• Divorce proceedings costs

• And more, case by case

Non-economic damages (those without a tangible cost) that might be sought in the Denver Tylenol lawsuit include:

• Pain and suffering

• Loss of quality of life

• Emotional anguish

• And more, case by case
