Defective Drugs and Medical Devices: Getting Justice

When manufacturers make mistakes with prescription drugs or medical devices, the biggest price is paid by the victims — the people who took the drugs or had the devices implanted with every expectation that they were safe.

At the Girardi | Keese law firm in California, our clients are people who have been injured through no fault of their own. When a drug company or a medical device manufacturer places a product on the market and promotes that product to doctors and patients, it is our position that they have a moral and monetary responsibility to the patients.

For more than 40 years, we have built a reputation as highly effective personal injury trial lawyers. We have never represented big corporations — only the people that they have injured. We earned our reputation by fighting back against some of the world's biggest companies, including medical device and pharmaceutical companies.

Challenging medical device and drug manufacturers in court requires a law firm with significant financial, technological and scientific resources as well as attorneys with the passion and determination to be champions of justice. Our trial lawyers are on the front lines in the fight against defective Zimmer hip replacements, defective diabetes drugs like Avandia and Byetta, and other defective medical devices and drugs.

Product defects — especially those that threaten the health and lives of medical patients — should cost the responsible manufacturer dearly in terms of money (the language they understand best) and reputation.

If you have a client, a loved one or a friend who has been seriously harmed by defective medical devices or dangerous prescription drugs, contact us for more information.
