Tennessee Dangerous Drug & Medical Device Lawyer

Protecting Patients Across Tennessee and Nationwide

We trust doctors, hospitals, and pharmaceutical companies to help us heal, not harm us. Unfortunately, some medical products meant to improve lives instead cause devastating injuries or even death. When drug and device manufacturers cut corners, mislead regulators, or hide known dangers, innocent patients pay the price. At Fox, Farley, Willis & Burnette, our Tennessee dangerous drug and medical device lawyers fight to hold these corporations accountable.

Our firm has decades of experience representing victims of defective medications and medical products across Tennessee and nationwide. We know that battling large pharmaceutical and device manufacturers requires skill, resources, and relentless advocacy. We bring all three to every case we handle.

Understanding Dangerous Drug and Defective Medical Device Claims

When a prescription drug or medical device causes harm, the manufacturer can be held liable under product liability law. These claims often involve allegations that the product was defectively designed, improperly manufactured, or inadequately tested before being released to the public. In many cases, companies are aware of the dangers but fail to warn patients or medical professionals.

Our attorneys thoroughly investigate each case to uncover internal documents, clinical trial data, and FDA records that show how these products reached the market. We also work with medical and scientific experts to link your injuries directly to the defective drug or device.

You may have a claim if you or a loved one experienced severe side effects, required corrective surgery, or suffered lasting health complications after using a prescription medication or medical product.

Common Dangerous Drug Cases We Handle

Drug manufacturers have a legal duty to ensure their products are safe for consumers. When they breach that duty, the consequences can be life-changing. Fox, Farley, Willis & Burnette represents clients in Tennessee and nationwide harmed by drugs such as:

• Hernia Mesh (Bard, Gore, Ethicon, Atrium): Used to repair hernias, these mesh products have been linked to severe infections, organ perforation, and chronic pain due to faulty design and poor material quality.
• IVC Filters: Implanted to prevent blood clots from reaching the lungs, defective filters can migrate, fracture, or puncture vital organs, leading to life-threatening internal injuries.
• Paraquat: This herbicide has been associated with Parkinson’s disease and other neurological conditions. Farmers and agricultural workers exposed to Paraquat may have grounds for compensation.
• Roundup (Glyphosate): Long-term exposure to this popular weed killer has been connected to non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma and other cancers. Lawsuits allege the manufacturer knew of the risks but failed to warn users.
• Talcum Powder/Baby Powder: Studies have shown that talc-based powders contaminated with asbestos fibers can cause ovarian cancer and mesothelioma. Manufacturers ignored decades of evidence linking talc use to these conditions.

These are just a few examples of the cases our firm handles. If you believe a medication or medical product caused you harm, our attorneys can help determine whether you have a viable claim.

Defective Medical Devices and Implants

Medical devices are designed to save lives and improve quality of life, but when they fail, the results can be devastating. Patients often undergo painful revision surgeries, suffer permanent injuries, or lose trust in their medical care. Our Tennessee defective medical device lawyers handle claims involving:

• Hip and knee replacements that fail prematurely or release toxic metal debris into the bloodstream
• Pacemakers and defibrillators that malfunction or stop working without warning
• Transvaginal mesh implants causing internal bleeding, pain, and infections
• Breast implants associated with rare cancers or ruptures
• Pain pumps, catheters, and infusion devices linked to overdoses and internal damage

In each case, we investigate whether the manufacturer rushed the product to market, failed to test it properly, or ignored reports of serious complications.

How We Prove Liability in Dangerous Drug and Device Cases

Proving liability in defective product cases requires thorough investigation and expert analysis. Our legal team builds strong claims by demonstrating that:

• The product had a defect in design, manufacturing, or labeling
• The manufacturer failed to provide adequate warnings or instructions
• The defect directly caused your injuries or condition
• The company knew or should have known of the risks and failed to act

Our firm has successfully handled complex mass tort and multidistrict litigation (MDL) cases against some of the largest pharmaceutical companies in the world. We know how to navigate the intricate process of consolidating cases, coordinating with national experts, and pursuing justice on behalf of injured clients.

Compensation Available in Dangerous Drug and Device Lawsuits

Victims of defective drugs and medical products may be entitled to recover compensation for:

• Medical expenses and future healthcare needs
• Lost wages and diminished earning capacity
• Pain, suffering, and emotional distress
• Costs of corrective surgery or long-term treatment
• Wrongful death damages for surviving family members

We fight for full and fair compensation to help our clients regain stability and quality of life after devastating injuries.
