Defective Medical Device Injury Attorneys in Dallas
Medical devices should improve your health-not create new injuries. If a hip implant, surgical mesh, pacemaker, insulin pump, or other device failed and harmed you, the defective medical device lawyers at McMahon Dean can hold manufacturers accountable across Dallas-Fort Worth and Texas.
Examples of Defective Medical Devices
Hip or knee replacements with premature failure or metallosis; transvaginal mesh erosion; faulty pacemakers or defibrillators; IVC blood filters that fracture or migrate; insulin pumps or wearables that malfunction. If you're unsure whether your device is
involved in a recall, we'll check and advise next steps.
How Medical Devices Fail
Design flaws (e.g., metal-on-metal hips that shed debris), manufacturing defects (contamination or weak components), and failure to warn (insufficient instructions or risks). We work with biomedical engineers and surgeons to pinpoint what went wrong and why the company is responsible.
The Impact on Patients
Device failures often require revision surgery, lead to infections,
nerve or organ damage, limited mobility, and months off work. McMahon Dean documents the full ripple effect-medical bills, lost income, and daily pain-to demand a settlement that reflects your reality.
Our Experience in Device Litigation
From single-plaintiff suits to coordinated
mass torts and MDLs, we partner with nationally recognized experts and co-counsel when it benefits your case. As Dallas-based trial lawyers licensed in Texas (and with Oklahoma reach), we can serve as your
local counsel and your voice in complex litigation.
Defective Device FAQs
The manufacturer offered a recall/replacement-should I still pursue a claim?
Yes. Replacement doesn't cover your pain, lost wages, or future care.
Do I need to remove the device before filing?
Not always. If removed, ask the hospital to preserve it as evidence.
How long do device cases take?
Complex cases can take years. We keep you informed throughout.
What compensation is available?
Revision surgery, future medical needs, lost earnings, pain and suffering, and sometimes punitive damages.
Will my doctor be sued?
Usually the focus is on the manufacturer unless there was separate medical negligence.
We Stand With Injured Patients
If an implant failed after a procedure at a Dallas hospital in the Medical District, Plano, or Arlington, McMahon Dean can investigate and demand accountability.
