Illinois Hernia Lawsuit Criteria

You do not need to know the manufacturer of your hernia mesh.

Most of our Illinois hernia mesh lawsuit clients do not know what company produced their surgical mesh.  This information is rarely discussed between the doctor and patient.  In fact, the doctor often does not find out which surgical mesh product will be used until the date of the surgery.

This is because doctors and hospitals are allowed to rely on a medical device product approved by the Federal Drug Administration (FDA).  However, the drug companies cannot hide behind FDA approval to escape liability for their wrongful or deceptive practices.

Illinois Hernia mesh lawsuits do not blame the doctor or hospital for a failure of the surgical mesh.  The claims for financial compensation are only made against the manufacturing companies.  We believe many of these hernia mesh manufacturers knew or should have known that their product was not safe for its intended purpose.  This wrongful conduct can give rise to legal liability enforceable through an Illinois court of law.

Upon completion of our client intake process, we send clients HIPPA authorizations for the release of hernia repair medical records.  We obtain the surgery charts at no out of pocket cost to the client.  Our experienced medical attorneys will review the records to determine all needed information for a hernia mesh lawsuit to be filed in the Illinois courts.
