Birmingham Dangerous Drugs & Medical Devices Attorney

Many of us take medications or use medical devices to help treat certain health conditions.

We trust our doctors and expect that these drugs and devices will work effectively and safely. Unfortunately, that is not always the case.

Every medication comes with side effects, but some are more severe than others. Medical devices can also cause unexpected harm. They may come loose from inside the body and cause organ damage and other injuries. They can also cause serious illnesses.

It can be devastating when something that you expect to improve your health actually causes the opposite effect. If you have been injured by a dangerous medication or device, seek legal help from a Birmingham dangerous drugs attorney who can help you get justice.

    Who is Liable?

    If a drug or medical device is considered dangerous, the manufacturer can be held liable under strict liability law. This means that the company can be held liable for any damages, regardless of their intent. It does not need to be proven that the manufacturer was negligent or acted recklessly.

    However, to prove strict liability, three elements must be proven:

    1. The defect was unreasonably dangerous.
    2. The defect existed after leaving the manufacturer.
    3. The defect caused a patient to suffer injury.
