Diethylstilbestrol (DES) Side Effects

If you or someone you love suffers from DES - diethylstilbestrol effects, the lawyers at Aaron M. Levine & Associates can provide the legal help you need. Our firm began research in the early 1980s on DES effects on behalf of afflicted clients and have gone on to study all available literature-and cross-referenced over 1,000 reports of the relationship between prenatal exposure and its effects. They were also able to confirm that any reasonable manufacturer should have known that diethylstilbestrol not only failed to promote healthy full-term pregnancies, it was also a teratogen and a carcinogen.

Expert women's health lawyers.

As the leading diethylstilbestrol effects attorney group, Aaron Levine & Associates has won both jury and appellate cases. The firm gained precedent-setting rulings in DES cases when the drug was prescribed for pregnant women during the 1950s and 1960s. The bottom line is that the diethylstilbestrol should never have been placed on the market. In addition, they have successfully prosecuted diethylstilbestrol claims against manufacturers of other dangerous drugs and defective devices throughout America, Belgium, Holland, France, Germany and Italy.

Aaron M. Levine is a nationally recognized expert on the effects of DES. As a DES attorney, he has served as a Legislative Assistant to a United States Senator and Congressman. He helped draft legislation protecting consumers including the first Medicare bill to help those in need.

On the forefront of Diethylstilbestrol

Aaron M. Levine & Associates have traveled around the world to personally interview and visit the laboratories of the leading researchers in DES (Diethylstilbestrol) side effects. They are performing the molecular, genetic and clinical research that is answering the following questions:

How does diethylstilbestrol cause Breast cancer?

Diethylstilbestrol causes proliferation of breast ducts in female fetuses during embryogenesis. This results in a higher incidence of ductal carcinoma of the breast in women over 40. Breast cancer can be highly aggressive and fatal. All women will require some form of treatment including combinations of surgery, radiation, chemotherapy and oral adjuvant therapy where indicated. The entire process to get rid of breast cancer may take several years. Be sure to read our article on DES and Breast Cancer.
