Recover Damages for Medical Product Liability
When you have surgery to repair a medical problem, you expect to heal and feel better. However, if you received a defective surgical implant, you are likely experiencing discomfort, pain or worse. In fact, you may need additional surgeries to replace the defective implant. If this has happened to you or a family member, you need a personal injury lawyer to help you recover your losses.
At Vickery, Riehl & Alter, our attorneys have practiced personal injury law for decades, and we understand how to pursue medical device product liability cases. We help clients throughout central Ohio who have suffered injury due to defective surgical implants and defective medical devices. To discuss your injury claim, please call our Columbus office at 614-602-4153.
Defective Medical Devices
Have you received letters from your surgeon about a medical device or implant recall? Are you or a family member experiencing pain or other problems associated with a defective surgical implant?
Defective medical devices, such as the Zimmer Durom Cup (hip implants) make big news when they are recalled. Unfortunately, that news comes too late for patients who already have the implant or device.
We can help individuals who have defective surgical implants, prosthetics and other medical devices such as:
- Pacemakers
- Defibrillators
- Stents and shunts
- Knee implants
- Hip implants
In these cases, we may be able to seek damages from the product's manufacturer, distributor and seller.
