(1888PressRelease) February 04, 2011 - A website catering to the legal assistance needs of the public has been recently made available especially for those who have taken Depakote and suffered serious birth defects. The site, http://www.depakotelawsuitinfo.com/ , advocates the rights of consumers who were kept blind to the damage Depakote cause. It provides clients with free compensation evaluation and within as short as 24 hours, they will know if they do qualify for compensation and be contacted by experienced lawyers.

Harry Flockhart, the founder of the website, said, "Every person who has become a victim unintentionally of these drugs being marketed without regard to its dangers must be given attention so they can lead their lives the way it was before. Though Depakote is proved to be an effective medication for people with bipolar tendencies, prescribing it to pregnant patients would only cause worst conditions. It is better to stay aware of the nature of the drug as well as the Depakote side effects."

Depakote is initially a medication for manic depression, seizure, and bipolar conditions. However, when taken during pregnancy, it can lead to further birth risks from less serious such as cleft palate, hand deformation, and heart malformations, to the most serious side effects like spina bifida, growth retardation, serious skeletal defects, and even fetal death. In case of a history of Depakote medication of a victim, the best option is to immediately contact a health professional to conduct a medical evaluation. Any pregnant woman or new mom who took Depakote during pregnancy should consider seriously this option. It is just too risky to wait for a birth delivery before acting upon the situation.

Pursuing a Depakote class action lawsuit is one huge step to lessen the burden victims endured having been prescribed a drug that is fatal during pregnancy. After a medical evaluation, seeking the help of a Depakote lawyer would speed up the lawsuit process and they may even expect winning a cash settlement if they manage to defend their case properly.

Depakote Lawsuit Info is a website that helps clients, who have faced medical problems brought by Depakote negative side effects, by providing free Depakote compensation evaluations. They allow victims to know if they qualify for compensation and if they do, these victims are contacted by credible lawyers. There is no fee to get a Depakote compensation evaluation from this site especially if their case is related to Depakote birth defects.
