A Defective Device Caused Your Injury.
The Manufacturer Must Pay.

Hip implants, pacemakers, surgical mesh, IUDs, spinal cord stimulators — when a medical device fails inside your body, the results can be catastrophic. Manufacturers knew the risks and sold the device anyway. We hold them accountable.

We're Not a Billboard.
We're Your Lawyers.

FDA Recall Database — We track every Class I, II, and III recall. If your device was recalled, that's powerful evidence of negligence.
Expert Network — We work with biomedical engineers and former FDA reviewers who can testify about design defects and manufacturer negligence.
Strict Liability Applies — In New York, manufacturers can be held strictly liable — you don't need to prove they knew the device was defective, just that it was.
Statute of Limitations — NY gives you 3 years from discovery of injury. Don't wait — evidence of the defect disappears and claims become harder to prove.
No Upfront Cost — We front all litigation costs — expert witnesses, medical records, engineering analysis. You pay nothing unless we win.

Common Questions
About Defective Medical Devices

My device was recalled — do I automatically have a case?+

A recall is powerful evidence but doesn't automatically mean you have a case. You must also show the defect caused your specific injury. We'll evaluate both — the recall history and your medical records — in a free consultation.

Can I sue if my doctor recommended the device?+

Yes. The manufacturer's liability is separate from your doctor's. If the device was defectively designed or manufactured, the company bears responsibility regardless of your doctor's recommendation. You may also have a separate claim against your doctor if they failed to warn you of known risks.

What damages can I recover?+

Medical expenses (past and future revision surgeries), lost wages, pain and suffering, loss of enjoyment of life, and in cases of egregious corporate conduct, punitive damages. Device cases often result in significant settlements because manufacturers want to avoid public trials.

My device wasn't recalled — can I still sue?+

Absolutely. A recall is not required. If your device failed in a way that caused injury and that failure resulted from a design defect, manufacturing defect, or failure to warn, you have a claim. We investigate the device's history, FDA filings, and adverse event reports.

How long do these cases take?+

Device defect cases are complex and typically take 18 months to 3+ years to resolve. However, if your manufacturer faces mass tort litigation, you may be able to join a multidistrict litigation (MDL) that can accelerate resolution. We assess the best path for your specific situation.
