Committed Medical Accident & Injury Lawyers
Unsafe pharmaceuticals and defective medical device claims often give rise to actions involving multiple defendants and complex legal claims. We recently obtained an $11.4 million verdict in a wrongful death case, in which the victim suffered an injury to his cervical cord during surgery. The lawsuit named both the hospital and the medical device manufacturer as defendants and included medical malpractice, product liability, and spoliation claims. Likewise, in a pharmaceutical negligence case, we not only obtained $3.7 million for the victim’s family in a wrongful death action, but we also made sure that the hospital discontinued the use of the dangerous medication.
Dangerous & Defective Medical Devices
Like all manufacturers, medical device engineers and manufacturers have an obligation to provide safe medical devices to the public. If a medical device is found to be dangerous or defective, the manufacturer has an obligation to remove the unsafe product from the market and correct any safety issues. The failure to do so could result in product liability.
