Frequently asked questions

Oxbryta claims: common questions

Who qualifies for the Oxbryta lawsuit?

You may qualify if you or a loved one took Oxbryta (voxelotor) for sickle-cell disease between 2019 and 2024 and experienced vaso-occlusive crises, stroke, organ damage, or death.

Is it too late to file a Oxbryta claim?

The Oxbryta litigation is active and accepting new claims as of 2026, but every claim has a filing deadline (statute of limitations) that varies by state and by when the injury was discovered. Because missing the deadline can permanently bar a claim, it is best to have your situation reviewed as soon as possible.

How much does it cost to have my case reviewed?

Nothing. Having Omid review your case is free and confidential, and these claims are handled on a contingency-fee basis, so you pay no fee unless compensation is recovered. Depending on the complexity of your case, it may be referred with your approval to a firm with the national resources to handle it, and that same no-fee promise still applies.

Depending on the complexity of your case, it may be referred — with your approval — to a firm with the national resources to give it the attention it deserves. You’ll always be informed first, and the promise stays the same: no fee unless you recover.
