Methotrexate is a powerful anti-metabolite for a variety of medical purposes, including the treatment of cancer, amino-related diseases, rheumatoid arthritis and psoriasis. The drug is so powerful, in fact, that a number of serious and fatal toxic reactions can develop in patients for whom the drug is not appropriate and for those who are not monitored carefully for side effects by their physicians.
If you or a family member has suffered serious harm that you believe may be linked to the use of methotrexate — put one of Atlanta's prominent personal injury law firms and a nationwide leader in pharmaceutical and medical malpractice litigation on your side.

Putting Our Experience on Your Side
The attorneys at Toliver & Gainer have more than 60 years of combined legal experience with personal injury and wrongful death litigation in Georgia and throughout the United States as well.
Our clients also benefit from the unique background, knowledge and perspective of firm partner A. LeRoy Toliver in particular. Prior to becoming an attorney, Mr. Toliver was a practicing pharmacist and a professor of pharmacology. His understanding of prescription drugs helps him understand pharmacy, physician and hospital liability issues better than many of the expert witnesses called upon to testify in defense of doctors or drug companies.
This experience, our reputation as effective trial lawyers and the intensive case preparation we engage in help us to reach fair settlements outside of court in many cases. However, if the insurance company is not offering you full and fair compensation — we will not hesitate to file a lawsuit against the responsible provider(s). Our fee will be a percentage of your verdict or settlement. If we are unable to obtain money for you, you owe us nothing.
Our goal in every case is maximum compensation. To put our experience to work for you in your methotrexate injury case — call or contact our law offices in Conyers, Georgia, and ask to speak with a lawyer.
