Hernia mesh lawsuit UK
We’re taking on claims for those who need to launch a hernia mesh lawsuit UK case. We’re already acting for a number of victims, and anyone who has yet to start their claim is being urged to speak to us as soon as they can.
We can tell you from years of experience that medical product claims can be complicated. In one medical product group action alone, we’ve recovered over £1.3m damages (and counting); so, you know you can trust our advice.
One of the major issues is the limitation periods that can apply to these types of claims. There can be more than one, and plenty of people end up missing deadlines in lawsuits. Missing those deadlines can cost Claimants literally tens of thousands of pounds in unrecoverable compensation. It’s important to act fact!
Compensation for vaginal mesh problems
We’re representing victims claiming compensation for vaginal mesh problems. With some women suffering with lifelong problems, legal action is important.
We’ve been helping with legal advice for vaginal mesh problems for a number of years now. Some of the cases that arise from dangerous mesh implants are high-value cases because of the severity of the problems women are suffering.
It’s important to seek advice and representation from specialist lawyers. Our primary focus as a firm is group action cases, which is why our expertise is important for people to recognise.
Bone cement complications from product recall
A regulator warning earlier this year stemmed from bone cement complications caused by an issue with the product itself.
A risk of the need for revision surgery from the use of Optipac 40 Refobacin Revision and Optipac 80 Refobacin Revision was identified. Manufacturer, Biomet UK Limited, issued a Field Safety Notice at the end of last year. The UK’s medical regulator, the MHRA (Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency), issued their own recall advice off the back of the findings.
Anyone who has suffered with bone cement complications may find the reason is to do with the product itself as opposed to failed surgery.

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.
Resuscitation system recall issued after risk of damage to lungs found
An error with a resuscitation system has been reported to risk damage to lungs, according to information released by the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA).
Manufactured by Intersurgical, the manual resuscitation system – named as the “Bag valve mask” (BVM) – risks damage to lungs due to the potential for excess pressure being delivered by the system.
Given that the defect is with a resuscitation system, this recall is an important one as lives may be at risk as a result of it.
