Medical Devices
Medical devices are intended to help people. Unfortunately, sometimes they cause worse problems than the ones they’re intended to fix. Medical devices can cause injuries for many reasons, including a failure of the device’s parts to work as designed or the device’s material is incompatible with the body’s organs. When you implant a foreign object in the body, the injuries are typically life altering.
Lawsuits related to defective medical devices are complicated. It is not enough to simply show that a device injured someone. The law may require you to prove that a safer design was available or that the manufacturer should have known about the risk of injury. To put it simply, there are only limited avenues to prevail on a medical device claim. It is crucial to hire a law firm that knows the pathways to success.
