Medical Devices
The term “medical device” refers to just about any device used by medical practitioners to treat a disease, illness, injury, or disability. Some examples of medical devices that have run into medical and legal problems in recent years include defibrillators, stents, implants and contraceptive devices.
Many people have relied on a medical device to better their health, only to suffer injuries from that same device. Sometimes, these injuries can form the basis for a product liability claim. You or someone you know may be reliant on a life-sustaining medical device. In these instances, if there is a malfunction or defect in the device, it can cause death. Many manufacturers of these devices wrongly believe an FDA seal of approval frees them from liability. They later learn how wrong they were. The Personal Injury lawyers at Tully Rinckey are experienced in taking on these companies and the faulty products manufactured.
Our Albany personal injury attorneys offer free initial consultations to potential clients, so we can meet and discuss your case in person. If your or a loved one is the victim of a malfunctioning or faulty medical device, call Tully Rinckey today at 1-888-529-4543 or (518) 218-7100 to set up a free meeting to discuss your case.
