Dangerous drug and medical device claims seek accountability for injuries caused by faulty products. These cases often involve product liability principles, regulatory oversight, and, in some situations, defenses based on federal preemption.

This glossary explains common terms used in dangerous drug and medical device cases to help you understand the process.

A legal theory that holds manufacturers and sellers responsible for injuries caused by defective products.
A set of federal standards and oversight that can influence what state claims are allowed, depending on the product and claim.
Clients may explore product liability lawsuits, regulatory complaints, or negotiated settlements. The best path depends on injury severity, available evidence, and long-term goals.

Contingency arrangements are common in personal injury work, meaning you may not pay upfront fees. Fees are typically based on a percentage of any recovery, with costs discussed upfront.
Recall-related injuries can involve regulatory actions and product liability claims against manufacturers. We review recall notices, gather evidence, and pursue remedies against responsible parties.
