Defective Medical Products
Sean M. Cleary – Miami Injury Attorney
When manufacturers of medical devices and pharmaceuticals introduce new products to the market, they are responsible for their safety and efficacy. While medical devices and drugs undergo rigorous examination by the Food and Drug Administration to secure their approval, ultimately, it is the manufacturer who is responsible for any injuries and deaths caused by defective or faulty products. Victims of defective drugs, malfunctioning pacemakers and faulty knee replacements are often eligible to demand and receive compensation for their injuries, as well as physical, psychological and financial distress.
As a highly regarded personal injury law firm in Miami, the Law Offices of Sean M. Cleary is dedicated to advancing the legal rights of victims who have suffered injury due to the improper behavior of medical product manufacturers. As a highly skilled personal injury attorney, Sean Cleary is experienced in negotiating and litigating personal injury cases arising from a variety of unlawful acts. Please explore the pages listed below to learn more about dangerous medical devices and drugs to avoid and also about the steps you should take if you have been exposed to them:
- Faulty Medical Devices. In recent years, several brands of knee, hip and spinal disc replacements have been recalled due to design flaws and manufacturer negligence causing major pain and personal injury.
- Malfunctioning Pacemakers & Defibrillators. The FDA has issued recalls of Guidant, Medtronic and St. Jude ICDs and pacemakers due to the risk of serious injury and death they pose to consumers.
- Defective Drugs. A number of pharmaceuticals have been removed from the U.S. market due to their potentially lethal side effects. Some of the more prominent recalls include Permax, Rezulin, Prozac and Fen Phen.
