Advice for starting your vaginal mesh lawsuit
A large number of vaginal mesh lawsuits are already being pursued, and if you need advice for starting yours, you can contact the team for advice today.
Thousands of women have reported suffering from mesh implant complications, and the UK has been slow to take real action to safeguard women and ensure compensation is awarded for victims who are now suffering.
Some of the problems people can suffer from can be irreversible, so it’s important for anyone suffering with complications to start their vaginal mesh lawsuit as soon as they can; especially given that time limitations for new cases can be tricky.
Compensation for pelvic mesh problems
You can claim for personal injury compensation for pelvic mesh problems, and it’s important to claim given the severity of the issues that can arise.
We’ve spent a number of years talking about pelvic mesh problems, and we’re now at a point where the number of people suffering complications appears to be increasing, and people are far more aware of the dangers now. Only recently did the NHS finally put a widespread pause on the procedure – news we welcome – after another review into the safety and the efficacy of the devices.
With some victims left unable to walk or work for the rest of their lives, claiming compensation for personal injury and losses is incredibly important.
Pelvic mesh suits continue against Boston Scientific
Pelvic mesh suits are to continue against pharmaceutical giant Boston Scientific after a Judge denied an attempt to dismiss some 800 claims.
The major pharmaceutical companies like Boston Scientific and Johnson and Johnson seem to be trying their hardest to dismiss the thousands of claims that are currently being made against them in them around the world. The UK is somewhat behind in terms of taking full legal action for victims pursuing pelvic mesh suits, and it’s a legal action we’re involved in.
This latest failed effort to dismiss claims is another small victory in what continues to be a long, hard fight for justice.
Pelvic mesh implant complications lead to NHS halt
The increasing number of pelvic mesh implant complications has finally forced the NHS to put a widespread halt on the use of the procedure as more and more women come forward with problems over the use of transvaginal mesh and transvaginal tape.
We’ve been advising women suffering mesh implant complications since the start of 2013, and our Group Action Lawyers are involved in legal action over the use of the devices. We wholeheartedly welcome the NHS pause on the use of the implants that’s arisen from a review chaired by Baroness Julia Cumberlege.
This may prove to be another crucial step forward toward justice for the many women who have suffered catastrophic and lifelong injuries caused by mesh implant complications.
