Do I need an attorney that specializes in TEN?

Yes. A toxic epidermal necrolysis attorney from Dunn Sheehan understands the medical proof these cases require, from burn-unit records to long-term injury documentation.

What records should I preserve after TEN?

We recommend preserving all medical documents. Keep the prescription name, pharmacy receipt, dosage, hospital records, discharge summary, and any specialist notes you have. However, a TEN specialist at Dunn Sheehan can request any missing records directly, so your family does not need every document ready before the first call. Our job is to find and organize all that information, but the documents you do have, we ask that you share them.

What if we were told it is too late to file?

Do not assume the deadline has passed. Filing rules vary by state and case type. A toxic epidermal necrolysis lawyer at Dunn Sheehan reviews the timeline first, then explains where your case stands without pressure or obligation.

What happens when I contact Dunn Sheehan?

You speak with an attorney who understands TEN litigation. We review the medication timeline, the diagnosis, and the harm that followed. If the evidence supports a claim, your toxic epidermal necrolysis attorney explains the next step and carries the legal work from there.

Our Experience With TEN Cases

Toxic epidermal necrolysis is among the rarest and most medically complex pharmaceutical reactions a law firm can litigate. Dunn Sheehan has led more TEN cases than any firm in the country. Building the evidentiary record, the expert networks, and the litigation history that holds drug manufacturers accountable. For us, SJS and TEN are not occasional files. It is the work we do every day.

Here’s How We Help You

We Build the Timeline

Our experienced team traces the chain from first dose to diagnosis, including pharmacy logs, hospital timestamps, ICU records, and specialist consult notes. The timeline builds the case, and researching it is our responsibility, not yours.
We Partner With Leading Experts

Burn medicine, pharmacology, ophthalmology—we engage with the specialists who can translate TEN’s medical reality into legal evidence. Our expert network is built for these cases specifically, not assembled on demand after a client calls.
We Confront the Manufacturer

Every claim targets the drug company, never the prescribing physician. Using the manufacturer’s own labeling history and the expert record we’ve built, we pursue the party whose warning failure caused TEN. We file where the law is strongest.

Chosen by Attorneys Nationwide

We’ve led more SJS cases than any firm in the U.S. Reach out to our team now to learn your legal options.

I have NEVER been treated with such, compassion, dignity, respect, empathy, and all around kindness in my life. All of this and so much more from a group of people whom I never even met. I was going through the worst moment of my life, and I was having to relive it over and over, looking for help. I could not have found a better group to go through this experience with. I can honestly say they all have a special place in my heart, and I will never forget them or what they've done for my family. Everyone was amazing, but a special acknowledgement to Connor and Michelle.

I can’t thank Connor, Michelle, and Linda enough for all the work they’ve done on my behalf. I feel so fortunate to have found them and had them in my corner litigating an extremely complex and challenging case against a large and well-resourced corporation. They were always responsive, easy to work with, and compassionate towards my condition and the limitations it placed on me in life. The award they were able to win has been integral to ensuring I have access to the needed care and maintain my quality of life in retirement.
