Every year, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration approves hundreds of new medical devices and pharmaceuticals. The FDA is tasked with testing and approving these products only if they are safe and effective to perform as intended. Sadly, a focus on profits over people has resulted in lax testing, hidden trial results, and countless consumer injuries. Cases involving defective medical devices and drugs are complex and they are expensive to handle properly. They also involve not only the element of federal safety and FDA procedures, but state laws as well. Therefore, it is crucial that you retain an attorney experienced in this area.
How Do I Know If I Have a Dangerous Drug or Medical Device Case?
Ultimate responsibility for a dangerous drug or medical devices falls on the manufacturer, and FDA approval does not waive them of liability. A manufacturer can be held liable for manufacturing defects, defective design, failure to warn about harmful side-effects, or falsely marketing the product.
