Question:
Who is liable in a medical device injury claim in Southwest Florida?
Answer:
In Florida, with a defective product, any entity that places the product in the stream of commerce is liable for a medical defective device claim, that includes the manufacturer, distributor, retailer, which in many cases is the hospital where the procedure is done, and perhaps even the doctor if the doctor is being paid for the device that’s being implanted that turns out to be defective. It’s this whole stream of people that could be potentially liable and that’s one of the things we investigate when we handle medical device injury claims.

Sometimes, the manufacturers will have programs set up to settle claims quicker. Either way, our firm is ready, willing, and able to handle these claims for you."}},}]}
