More than 95% of the 203 clients of Simmons Hanly Conroy have received their settlement amounts in the landmark Pfizer settlement of more than 5,000 Bextra and Celebrex personal injury claims, the first large volume of such claims to have been paid. “Working with the tremendous back-office support of our co-counsel SimmonsCooper, we were able to get nearly all of our clients paid their settlements in the last few days,” explained Jayne Conroy, one of three lead negotiators of the terms of the nationwide settlement program. “It is highly gratifying to have been able to secure these early payments for so many deserving victims, and we are especially delighted to have received so many emails and calls from clients thanking our two firms for our work,” she added.
