Jessica Shoulders Lawyer Reviews & Ratings - Bowling Green

I am an attorney and parnter at ELPO who works primarily on products liability and personal injury cases, with most of my practice focusing on defective medical products and pharmaceuticals.. I am handling lawsuits against the makers of IVC (inferior vena cava) filters, which are used to prevent blood clots from traveling through the body and causing a pulmonary embolism. The IVC filters are sometimes left in the body for too long, and can puncture veins and cause other severe problems. I am also representing patients who have been injured by Bair Hugger Forced Air Warming Blankets. The blankets are used during surgery to keep patients warm, but can promote deep joint infections after orthopedic surgery.  These infections can sometimes lead to painful revision surgeries or amputations.. Beyond medical devices, I am handling cases involving Actos, a diabetes drug that has been linked to bladder cancer, and Lipitor, a drug taken to lower cholesterol that has been shown to cause diabetes in post-menopausal women. I am also representing patients who have suffered severe bleeding events while taking the Xarelto, a popular drug used to treat atrial fibrillation and deep vein thrombosis. I also represent patients injured by the Fluroquinolone antibiotics Levaquin and Avelox, which can cause peripheral neuropathy, and I am fighting for the rights of children born with birth defects because their mothers took Zofran during their first trimester of pregnancy.. I have an undergraduate degree in accounting from Western Kentucky University and a law degree from the University of Kentucky. I am a member of the American Association for Justice, the Kentucky Justice Association, the American, Kentucky and Bowling Green-Warren County bar associations. I recently graduated from the Leadership Bowling Green program, am serving on the Western Kentucky University Young Alumni Council and the Board of Directors of the American Red Cross of South Central Kentucky and the Bowling Green-Warren County Bar Association. I am a native of Franklin, Kentucky.
