We represented a woman who had a total knee replacement surgery to address degenerative joint disease in her left knee. The prosthetic that replaced her knee, however, was ultimately unsuccessful and failed to bond properly with her bone. As a result, she suffered from chronic knee pain and lost partial mobility of her knee. The specific implant used in the surgery was later deemed faulty and recalled by the manufacturer. We negotiated a settlement that reimbursed our client for all of her medical bills incurred, the cost of future therapy, and provided her $170,000 for her inconvenience and pain and suffering.
