Defective Medical
Devices

Millions Recovered for Clients across the United States

Advances in medical technology have led to the development of remarkable devices that can help us recover from health problems, protect us from unwanted complications, and replace parts of the body that have deteriorated due to age or illness. We count on medical device manufacturers to make sure that products designed to heal us won’t, in fact, make us worse. Sometimes, however, the trust we place in those companies is betrayed. Improperly testing, poor manufacturing, and deceitfully marketed medical devices injure or kill thousands of Americans every year.

At LawMD, our attorneys stand up for victims of such negligence, pursuing and, in many cases, obtaining compensation from the responsible companies. We have stood up to major manufacturers, distributors, and pharmaceutical entities; we know what it takes to effectively fight for your fair recovery. If you were harmed or lost a loved one due to a defective medical device, reach out to our attorneys as soon as possible.

FDA Approval Doesn’t Mean a Medical Device Is Safe

Before a medical device is made available to the public, it must be approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). But the approval process is far from foolproof.

Just because a device has received FDA approval does not mean it’s safe or free from dangerous and potentially deadly flaws. Often, devices that have already been implanted in or used by tens of thousands of patients are found to have catastrophic problems.

Those problems could involve:

• Defective design
• Improper manufacturing
• Inadequate testing
• Deceptive marketing
• Inadequate warnings

Why you may benefit from a doctor in your courtroom. We understand your injuries, because we’ve likely treated them.

Most of our physician-attorneys are either current or past treating doctors in, collectively, a wide range of medical specialties. There is a good chance one or more of our physician attorneys have actually treated medical conditions similar to the ones from which you or your loved one now suffers. That translates into care and understanding as your Counselors, and know-how as your Advocates.

Time and cost-savings for your case.

Any honest medical malpractice attorney will tell you that one of the greatest expenses in a medical malpractice case is having to pay physician experts to study the details of the medical issues in your case and, if necessary, provide testimony at deposition and trial. While even our physician attorneys may also need to hire outside medical experts for your case, our medical know-how allows us to perform a significant amount of the medical analysis necessary for your case in-house which may translate into significant savings at the conclusion of your case.

Rapid Response with solid answers to your serious questions regarding your case.

Because we have in-house medical know-how, we can evaluate the medical questions in your case and provide answers without a lengthy wait. Our internal process involves getting the issues in your case quickly in front of the right physician attorney who, based on his or her medical experience and training, is most likely to have the answers you seek about whether you have a case and how we might help you get the compensation you deserve to help secure a brighter future for you and for your loved ones.
