Suffering From A Defective Or Recalled Knee Replacement In New Orleans? We Can Help
Get help with the new Exactech Knee Replacement Recall Or Any Other Defective Implants
Your knees are arguably the most important joints in your body. When you are standing, walking, or running, they support almost the entire weight of your body and are essential for mobility and independence.
The health of your knees is directly related to your ability to get around – and to the overall quality of your life as a result. Undergoing knee replacement surgery requires you to place a great deal of trust in a prosthetic device.
If that device has failed you because of a defect, the manufacturer can and should be held accountable.
I Have A Defective Knee Implant, What Can I Do?
When knee replacements go wrong, especially because of a defective product, the impact on your life cannot be understated. From constant, chronic, daily pain to an inability to walk or even sit, defective knee replacements are a massive drain on your quality of life and your pocketbook.
On top of paying for the initial replacement and defective product, victims of defective knee replacement implants now need to pay for additional, even more complicated surgery or a new implant. And if you cannot afford that, you may be looking at a life of pain or reduced mobility.
Unfortunately, no one can take back the pain you have suffered from your defective knee implant. However, the knee replacement and implant claim compensation attorneys at The Gertler Law Firm can help you obtain financial compensation for your medical costs and the suffering you have endured.
In doing so, you also help protect the thousands of patients who will undergo knee replacement surgery by making sure manufacturers ensure the safety and effectiveness of their implants.

If it is one of these, then you almost certainly have a strong case for compensation. Even if your knee implant is not on this list, or you are not sure, you should give our law firm a call. There may still be grounds to claim compensation.
Do I Need A Knee Implant Claim Attorney?
If you have been experiencing long-term pain, recurring discomfort, or a loss of mobility after a knee replacement operation, chances are you might have the right to make a claim for compensation.
The only way to know for sure if you are able to make a claim, however, is to discuss your operation, experiences, and medical history with a qualified personal injury attorney. A lawyer with experience dealing with defective knee implant claims will ask you the following to help you figure out if you should be making a claim:
What was the reason for the knee replacement, and was it full or partial?
What symptoms did you experience after the operation?
Was any additional surgery necessary?
Has your doctor mentioned the possibility of needing more surgery down the road?
Has your doctor determined a reason for the implant’s failure?
Has there been an FDA or manufacturer’s recall for your device?
Does this sound like your situation? Even if you are not sure of the answers, you can call our firm for free to arrange a consultation. As specialists in personal injury claims and defective product lawsuits, The Gertler Law Firm will be able to help you figure out if you, too, deserve compensation.
