05/07/2008- It’s a situation all parents hope they’ll never have to contemplate - which kid to save from death first.

Christi Ault’s eyes fill with tears as she thinks about how close she came to that situation last Sunday, when her Ford F-150 truck spontaneously exploded into flames only an hour and a half before her three children would have been strapped into their car seats.

“It’s just horrible to think about, you know?” she said. “Who do you pick?”

(OPENPRESS) May 12, 2008 -- Ennis & Ennis, P.A. is supporting the petition to the FDA, filed by Public Citizen, to remove the Ortho Evra Birth Control Patch from the U.S. market. Ennis & Ennis, P.A. encourages women who have used the Ortho Evra Patch and have experienced side effects including DVT, Blood Clots, Strokes or Heart Atttacks to go to the FDA's website and fill out the MedWatch form, which helps the FDA evaluate and retrieve accurate information on the actual victims of the patch. Attorney David Ennis stated: "Based on our 22 years of experience in pharmaceutical and medical device litigation, many times the problems of actual victims are under-reported to the FDA." Ennis also encourages health care providers who have prescribed, diagnosed, or treated patients using the patch to encourage these patients to complete the FDA's MedWatch form.

The lawyers and staff of Ennis & Ennis P.A. would like to congratulate attorney Mike Hook and his staff for their tremendous verdict in the amount of $10.5 million for a 24 year old Utah woman who was diagnosed with ulcerative colitis after taking Accutane. This has been a well kept dirty secret by the manufacturer Hoffman-La Roche for many years. We are glad to see these cases come to light and hopefully the word will spread to teenagers and young adults who are still on the drug or are thinking of taking the drug. We have been working with Mike and his staff since 2003 on these cases and it has been a long hard fight. The manufacturer has stonewalled the litigants time and again and it is good to see these cases finally get to trial and let the truth come out. Mike and his team have won 3 straight trials in New Jersey state court in the amount of $2.5 million, $7.5 million and yesterdays verdict of $10.5 million. We are convinced, based on our research, that there are many more victims out there who have not correlated their illness to the drug accutane. Accutane has received much publicity for side effects including depression, suicide and birth defects. The real dark secrets lie in the correlation between accutane and IBD (Inflammatory Bowel Disease), Ulcerative Colitis, Crohn's, Liver and Kidney damage. Ennis & Ennis, P.A. is still offering free nationwide consultations to victims of accutane by calling 1-800-856-6405 or visiting our website http://www.the-accutane-lawyer.com and filling out our free online case evaluation form.

Kamie Kendall, a Utah hairdresser, started taking Accutane at age 12, according to David Buchanan, one of her lawyers. She was diagnosed with ulcerative colitis at the age of 14, and in 2006 she had her colon removed. As a result, Mr. Buchanan says, Ms. Kendall suffers from debilitating diarrhea.
