Medical Device
Many times individuals must use implanted medical devices. These may be artificial knee or hip joints, pacemakers, or even transplanted bones and other human tissue. These procedures and implants can be life savers. But, they can also cause life threatening problems.
At the Edwards Law Firm, we represent many people who have received defective pacemakers or defibrillators. We also represent individuals with negligently obtained, not sterile, human bone and tissue implants. Medical device companies must adhere to strict guidelines concerning the production and implantation of their products. Sometimes these companies take shortcuts and try to make more profit for themselves but greatly damage the patient in the process.
If you have received a defibrillator made by Medtronic or Guidant, or have notice of problems created by implanted Human Tissue, contact us immediately.
