Frequently Asked Questions
Who Qualifies for a Tylenol Autism Lawsuit?

Through a Tylenol autism lawsuit, you may be able to seek compensation for medical expenses, mental healthcare expenses, permanent disability costs, physical and emotional pain and suffering, loss of enjoyment of life, and other losses.

The main qualifying issues are:
- Mother took Tylenol or generic acetaminophen while pregnant
- The mother was not taking acetaminophen or Tylenol against the advice of a health professional
- Your child sustained fetal exposure to Tylenol or generic acetaminophen

How Long Do I Have to File an Acetaminophen Lawsuit?
The statute of limitations for filing a product liability, negligence, or unfair trade practices claims varies from state to state. Even within a state, some of these claims have longer statutes of limitations than others.
In many cases, the standard timeline is extended if you didn’t know or reasonably couldn’t be expected to know that the product had caused harm. But, even then, many states have absolute limits. So, it can be difficult to determine exactly how long you have to file a certain type of claim in a particular state.
What Settlement Amounts Can Tylenol Autism Lawsuit Plaintiffs Expect?
Based on estimation from mass tort law firms, the trial value of a successful verdict in a Tylenol autism lawsuit would likely be between $5 million and $10 million.
As this lawsuit is still at the early stage, and individual injuries vary from each other, a specific compensation amount cannot be promised.
