Defective Medical Devices

Some of the most common mass torts involve defective or dangerous medical devices . We know how serious these cases can be, often resulting in lifelong injuries and damages. As manufacturers often develop thousands of the same defective product, countless people can suffer injuries. This is why a mass tort can often be brought against the manufacturer or company, consolidating each injury victim’s case. Knowing how to craft a strong case within a mass tort is crucial.

Metzger Wickersham is currently reviewing mass tort cases involving:
  • Bone cement
  • IVC filters
  • Metal-on-metal hip replacements
  • Physiomesh
  • Transvaginal mesh
  • Zimmer NexGen knee replacements

Dangerous Drugs

In addition to defective medical devices, dangerous drugs are another leading reason for mass torts. Similarly, these cases can be extremely complex and require a heavy element of proof.

The Pennsylvania mass tort lawyers at our firm are reviewing the following dangerous drug cases:
  • Heartburn Medications (Proton Pump Inhibitors)
  • Opioids
  • Risperdal®
  • Talcum Powder
  • Taxotere
  • Zofran

Mass torts can also arise from any type of defective or toxic consumer product. Our Harrisburg mass tort lawyers are well-equipped to handle any and all consumer product injury claims. Consumer product claims may involve anything from kitchen appliances to hazardous materials to vehicle defects.

A few examples of consumer product and toxic tort claims may include:
  • Defective airbags (Takata airbag recall)
  • Defective seatbelts
  • Defective seatback mechanism
  • E-cigarette explosions
  • Leukemia from Benzene exposure
  • Mesothelioma from asbestos exposure
  • Roundup weed killer / glyphosate and cancer
  • Vehicle fuel tank defects

Many big corporations and popular brands are no stranger to mass tort litigation as a result of defective parts, recalls and toxic exposure from their products.
