Medical Devices Are Supposed to Be Safe
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is responsible for ensuring that medical devices and pharmaceutical products are safe for consumers. The FDA does what it can to ensure the products are designed and manufactured under the strictest standards. In light of the vast number of products on the market, however, complete oversight is difficult, if not impossible.
Free Consultation · No Attorneys Fees Unless You Win
If you were injured by a defective medical device or dangerous pharmaceutical product, talk to a prominent medical litigation firm about your case. Humphrey, Farrington & McClain has taken a leading role in individual and class action litigation against many of the largest medical device and pharmaceutical companies in the world. Since 1984, we have obtained over $800 million in catastrophic personal injury and wrongful death settlements and verdicts on behalf of victims of negligence.
What It Takes to Win a Medical Products Liability Claim
It is no secret that Congress and the courts have been friendly toward large corporations like medical device manufacturers, pharmaceutical companies and doctors over the past ten years. Winning a medical products liability claim requires not only a showing of negligence on the part of the manufacturer, but a showing of health problems and/or financial losses directly caused by the product. In order to prove these losses, the victim's law firm must have the professional and financial resources to investigate and prepare complex claims that can take years to resolve.
Humphrey, Farrington and McClain has the resources, experience and fortitude to stick with your medical products liability case until you get the highest settlement or jury verdict you are entitled to. When we accept a case involving a defective medical product, we consider it our responsibility to ensure the problems get fixed. That does not happen unless the manufacturer is held accountable for the full cost of the damages they cause.
