Defective Medical Products

Helping Those Injured by Defective Medical Products

The biomedical device industry has produced products that can extend and improve the quality of our lives. Like any other manufactured product, however, medical devices can become dangerous because of defects introduced in the design, manufacturing or marketing of the product.

If you have been injured by a defective medical product, you can rely on the attorneys of Walsh, Knippen, Knight & Pollock, Chartered, for experienced legal representation.

Defective Implantable and External Medical Products

We represent clients injured by defective knee and hip implants, pacemakers, implanted defibrillators and other medical implants. We also represent people harmed by respirators, ventilators, fetal monitors, pumps and other defective external medical products.

Bringing the Facts to Life

We consult respected medical experts, as well as experts in the manufacturing of biomedical devices. Using the latest in computer technology, we translate complex concepts into clear arguments that a jury will find compelling.

Did you developed an infection because the manufacturer improperly sterilized an implantable device? Did you sustain a heart device injury from the defective leads of a Medtronic implantable defibrillator?
