While the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulates these products, some issues only become apparent once a product reaches consumers, and even then, companies may delay issuing recalls, leaving users at risk.

Defective medical products or drugs include items that are improperly designed, manufactured, or labeled, as well as those that fail to perform as expected or cause harm.
If you have suffered injury, illness, or worsening medical conditions as a result of using a medical product or drug, you may have a case. A consultation with the qualified Connecticut defective medical products attorneys at Cooper Law Group can help you determine if the product or drug in question was defective, and whether you are entitled to compensation.
Every defective medical product and drug case is different, so compensation will vary depending on the unique facts of your case. You may be eligible to recover compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, permanent disability, and even funeral expenses in cases of wrongful death.
Most claims must be filed within three years of discovery, but no later than ten years from when the defendant last controlled the product (with limited exceptions). Consulting Cooper Law Group as soon as possible will help ensure you don’t miss out on important deadlines.
Even if a product has been recalled, you may still be eligible for compensation. Manufacturers often delay or fail to recall products promptly. The existence of a recall does not necessarily absolve them of liability for any harm caused.
Yes. Even if the manufacturer claims the product was safe, they may still be liable for injuries caused by design defects, manufacturing errors, or insufficient warnings. Cooper Law Group will conduct a comprehensive investigation to uncover the truth and protect your rights.
No. Cooper Law Group works on a contingency fee basis, meaning we don’t charge you anything unless we win your case. This allows you to pursue justice without worrying about legal costs.
The timeline of a defective product case depends on its complexity and the willingness of the defendant to settle. Cases can take several months or even years to resolve, especially if they involve multidistrict litigation. Our team is committed to fighting for the best possible outcome as quickly as possible.
