We've heard the stories. Pharmaceutical companies failing to warn of side effects. Marketing drugs illegally. Whistleblowers bringing incriminating evidence of corporate machinations leading to huge verdicts and settlements. And in this true-legal thriller, it all started with butterfly ballots putting a presidential election on hold. Meet Stephen A. Sheller, an attorney whose career reads like an encyclopedia of the biggest legal cases of our time. Sheller fought tobacco companies and exposed fraud in their efforts to promote light cigarettes as safer than regular smokes, filed the first suit over the butterfly ballots in the controversial Bush v. Gore presidential election of 2000, and recovered a staggering $6.4 billion by going after pharmaceutical companies whose actions superseded patient safety. Pharmageddon: A Nation Betrayed is the inside story of Sheller’s fights to hold accountable powerful pharmaceutical companies for aggressively campaigning for their product’s distribution in spite of dangers and side effects many prescription drugs carry. From uncovering the devastating effects on children and elderly to defending all of our rights in an increasingly complex legal system, Sheller has uncovered greed and avarice displayed by these multi-billion dollar corporations. Discover what happens when a legal champion takes up a cause.

For more than fifty years, Stephen A. Sheller, Esq., has been an icon of justice. In Lawyering in Times of Saints and Evildoers, he shares his career experiences showing how he became a highly recognized advocate of everyday people, passionately protecting citizens’ basic rights under the US Constitution and law. While his fearless legal strategies have been controversial, Sheller nearly always achieves what he sets out to do. Readers interested in how the U.S. legal system works—and how it doesn’t—will gain much from his first-hand accounts, including his representation of African American Union employees, wrongly jailed Black Panthers, women experiencing gender pay inequity in the 1960s and 70s, and his novel consumer fraud tactics still used in tobacco litigation today. Sheller has gone up against major corporations across the country, representing those they have hurt physically and financially or have denied the rights they deserve as citizens. He’s been a pioneer of national whistleblower lawsuits, exposing corporate malfeasance ranging from credit scams to medical malpractice to environmental disasters. Part personal memoir, part legal thriller, this eye-opening book will inspire you to stand up for justice, equality, and the Constitution of the United States. This book lays the foundation for his next, Pharmageddon: A Nation Betrayed, starting with Bush v. Gore and focusing on the pharmaceutical industry.
