Medical Device Failure

When you rely on a medical device to improve your health or quality of life, you expect it to work safely and effectively. But when a device fails—whether due to a design flaw, manufacturing defect, or lack of proper warning—the consequences can be devastating. At J Davis Law, we represent individuals harmed by defective or dangerous medical devices across Charleston and throughout South Carolina.

We hold manufacturers, distributors, and medical providers accountable when their negligence causes preventable harm.

Common Types of Defective Medical Devices

Our firm handles cases involving a wide range of failed or recalled devices, including:

  • Hip and knee replacements
  • Spinal cord stimulators
  • Pacemakers and defibrillators
  • Insulin pumps and glucose monitors
  • Surgical mesh and hernia mesh
  • Breast implants
  • Intrauterine devices (IUDs)
  • Catheters, stents, and implantable ports

Defective devices can lead to infection, organ damage, chronic pain, revision surgery, or even death.

How Medical Devices Can Fail

Device injuries can be caused by:

  • Design defects – inherent flaws in the way the product was created

  • Manufacturing defects – errors during production that make a specific batch unsafe

  • Failure to warn – inadequate instructions or lack of warning about known risks

  • Improper implantation or use by medical staff

Determining the root cause of the failure is critical—and our team has the experience to investigate and uncover the truth.
