Get Representation for Hernia Mesh Lawsuits

When you undergo a medical procedure, you expect that the products used are safe. Unfortunately, this is not always the case. Since 2005, more than a dozen hernia meshes have been recalled either due to defects, unsafe materials, or mislabeling of packaging, and there may be many other harmful meshes in use that have yet to be recalled. If you have undergone surgery to repair a hernia and mesh was used to do so, you may be at risk for injury or complications. It’s crucial that if you’ve encountered any issues with this mesh, including the removal of it, you keep detailed records of doctor visits, as you may be entitled to a cash payout. Legal Rights Advocates can represent you to help you get the compensation you deserve. You pay nothing unless a recovery is obtained. We have years of experience representing individuals in consumer rights and medical cases. Contact us today to set up a consultation to discuss your case.

Problems with Defective Hernia Mesh

Patients implanted with defective hernia meshes may face a variety of complications. The FDA has cited many companies for using unsafe materials in their medical meshes as well as for ignoring reports of product contamination. This is not acceptable, and those affected are entitled to compensation. It’s important that you report any problems you encounter with your hernia mesh and keep medical records or bills tied to these issues. Defective hernia mesh could result in any of the following side effects:

• Recurrence of hernia
• Total or partial hernia explant (revision) surgery
• Severe pain
• Infections
• Adhesion
• Intestinal blockage
• Other complications
