Reports of Transvaginal Mesh Complications
Since 2005, more than 1,000 patients have suffered from serious complications from the placement of a transvaginal mesh device. The transvaginal mesh is a type of medical device used to treat Pelvic Organ Prolapse (POP) and Stress Urinary Incontinence (SUI), conditions that may occur after childbirth and pregnancy. If you or someone you loved has been injured, you have the legal right to pursue monetary compensation in a court of law.
In October 2008, the FDA issued a public health notification alerting healthcare providers and the public to the increasing number of serious health issues associated with the transvaginal mesh. Complications reported to the FDA include meshes from nine different manufacturers. Transvaginal meshes are implanted through surgery. According to the FDA, contributing factors to complications potentially include the patient’s health, mesh material, the size and shape of the mesh, surgical procedures and estrogen levels.

No Recovery, No Fee
Generally speaking, we take cases on a contingent basis. That means that there is generally no cost to you unless we are able to recover a settlement or judgment on your behalf. So, unless your case is resolved by trial, arbitration, settlement, or other resolution, you generally do not have to pay any attorney fees to us, or pay any costs. Litigation costs include filing fees, court reporter fees for deposition, copying costs, experts, and travel. Litigation costs are paid by our firm so you don’t have to have cash to pursue justice against Advanced Bionics. If there is a recovery, we are reimbursed our fronting of litigation costs out of any damages you are awarded. So, in a sense, you do not need cash up front to hire us as your lawyer to pursue a claim for personal injuries, emotional injuries, lost business or property damage.
