Defective Products

Some malpractice claims do not involve negligence by a medical professional. At Gillette & Izzo, we have represented New York residents victimized by a faulty medical product or device. A manufacturing or design defect can have devastating consequences, resulting in health setbacks to the victim or the loss of a loved one. A skilled lawyer can help you pursue compensation for the harms you have suffered.

When dangerous products are discovered, manufacturers must provide adequate warnings to their consumers, as required by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA). When they fail to notify consumers or continue to misrepresent their products as safe, we fight to hold them accountable.

We Can Skillfully Handle Your New York Medical Device Injury Claim

At Gillette & Izzo, we represent our clients and their family members when defective medical devices have changed their lives. Specific products common in these complex medical claims include:

• Heart valves
• Pacemakers (Medtronic)
• Knee implants (Oxinium)
• Artificial hip replacements (DePuy, Biomet and Stryker products)
• Ventilators
• Defibrillators (St. Jude)
• Transvaginal mesh
• Dialysis devices and machines
• Bone grafts for spinal and neck surgery (Medtronic Infuse)
• IUDs (Mirena and NuvaRing)
• Lap-Band bariatric implant
• da Vinci surgical robot
• Medications (Zantac, Prevacid, Celebrex)

When surgery is needed for implantation or use of a medical product, a second procedure is needed when that device is discovered to be faulty. The inconvenience and increased recovery time create frustration with patients. Many are out of work and unable to enjoy a once-active life.
