Dempsey & Kingsland has the experience and resources to take on major manufacturers of medical devices in pursuit of rightful damages for our clients. We have handled complex, multi-district litigation and class action lawsuits. We hire experts in product engineering and manufacturing, surgical implantation, medical electronics and related fields to demonstrate the failure and to establish a connection between the device and the adverse patient outcome.
