Dempsey Kingsland Osteen can initiate individual lawsuits or represent your interests in class action litigation. Some products have been taken off the market in full-scale drug recall after patients died or suffered permanent injury.

- Reglan (metoclopramide)
- Trasylol (heart surgery)
- Gadolinium (metal found in MRI contrast dyes)
- Duragesic Fentanyl Pain Patch (pain relief)
- Avandia (diabetes)
