Medical

The Motley Rice Medical practice group represents individuals harmed by drugs, defective medical devices, nursing home abuse or neglect, or medical malpractice. Our attorneys are positioned to take on medical industry giants and follow the trail of inadequate medical care, corporate wrongdoing, or a hasty marketing push for a medical drug or product. As the business and science behind medical industries grow increasingly complex, we strongly advocate for those suffering from a failure to provide sufficient medical care, research and product development.

Potentially Dangerous Drug Lawsuits

Drug manufacturers sometimes fail to properly research their products or inform patients and health care providers about all of the risks and side effects associated with their drugs. Motley Rice’s Medical practice group has experience litigating prescription drug lawsuits and the resources necessary to defend the legal rights of people injured by potentially dangerous drugs. Motley Rice attorneys have litigated cases or are currently litigating or interested in representing clients in drug cases regarding the following prescription drugs: Accutane® , Actos®, Avandia®, Crestor®, Denture Cream®, Digitek®, Drugs Associated with Stevens-Johnson Syndrome®, Fosamax®, Levaquin®, Meridia®, Multaq®, NuvaRing®, Pradaxa®, Tekturna®, Topamax®, Wellbutrin®, Yasmin®, Yaz®, Zoloft® and Zyban®.

Medical Device Lawsuits

Many have suffered serious injury or wrongful death from using medical devices that manufacturers did not adequately test before selling to the general population. Motley Rice Medical team understands the complex legal, scientific, and medical aspects of medical device lawsuits and has experience litigating on behalf of those who have experienced serious injury or suffered wrongful death related to the use of a faulty medical device. Our lawyers are currently litigating cases or are interested in representing clients in medical device cases regarding the following potentially defective medical devices: Composix® Kugel® Mesh Hernia Repair Patch, DePuy Hip Replacements, Medtronic Sprint Fidelis® Defibrillator Leads, Mirena® IUD, Synthes Synex II® Central Body Components, Transvaginal/Pelvic Mesh and Zimmer Durom® Cup Hip Replacement.

Nursing Home Abuse and Neglect Lawsuits

Nearly two million Americans currently live in nursing homes, and the increase in abuse, neglect and malpractice against the elderly has become a national concern. Abuse and neglect of our most defenseless population can take many forms, and the federal and state regulations that exist to govern the rights of nursing home and assisted living residents sometimes fail. Motley Rice’s lawyers have experience litigating nursing home lawsuits and seek to protect the rights of residents while providing victims of negligence with the compensation and care to which they are entitled.
