Drug Recalls
There is a tremendous financial incentive for pharmaceutical companies to develop and market drugs that offer a cure for almost every human woe. Unfortunately, some of these medications cause more harm than good and some patients develop significant complications or even die as a consequence of poorly developed medication or when they are not tested on a long-term basis.
Below is a sampling of current pharmaceutical drug litigation that our office is involved in:
Defective Medical Devices
The FDA is responsible for the regulation and approval of medical devices used to treat illness and for devices that are surgically implanted. The agency needs to balance the introduction of new devices to help people with the responsibility to protect the public from inherently dangerous devices. Sometimes manufacturing defects or medical complications that arise when the device is used on a longer-term basis develop with these devices resulting in serious harm to patients. When a medical device malfunctions or is inherently defective and a patient is injured, they may be able to file a lawsuit against the manufacturer, distributor, or even the medical facility where the device was used.
Below are some examples of medical device lawsuits that our attorneys are currently prosecuting.
