Companies that manufacture and sell drugs and medical devices have duties to appropriately make, test, ensure product safety, and appropriately warn of the side effects and complications associated with the use of their products. However, when companies forsake these duties, often to protect their profits, defective and dangerous drugs and devices are put on the market. As a result, many individuals are exposed to and injured by these products every year.
The injuries from these defective products can have significant and devastating consequences, including permanent injuries, the need for surgery(ies), other serious medical interventions, and even death.
The attorneys at Brown Chiari LLP are committed to seeking compensation for those injured due to the improper actions of the companies involved in the manufacture and sale of these defective products. We have a longstanding history of successfully representing victims of numerous defective drugs and medical devices. Our attorneys have the experience to handle the complex litigation entailed in bringing claims against drug and medical product device manufacturers in both state and federal courts.
