Thousands of hernia mesh lawsuits are pending in courts across the country. Our hernia mesh lawyers are handling these cases in all 50 states.

The plaintiffs in these lawsuits are individuals with defective hernia mesh implanted during surgery, causing them to suffer severe post-surgical complications and injuries.

The hernia mesh lawsuits involve multiple hernia mesh products made by four medical device companies that are in (or were in) the litigation: Ethicon (a Johnson & Johnson subsidiary that has reached a settlement in most of its lawsuits), C.R. Bard (now part of Becton Dickinson), Covidien, and Atrium Medical Corp.

C.R. Bard is defending over 18,000 hernia mesh lawsuits, which allege that its mesh devices were defective, resulting in injuries and complications for thousands of patients undergoing hernia surgery. Most of these lawsuits have now been joined in the Bard hernia mesh settlement, although new claims continue to come to our office virtually every day.

Our hernia mesh lawyers are handling these claims in all 50 states.  We are still taking new claims. This page will provide the latest news and updates on the hernia mesh litigation, as well as information regarding the settlement value of these cases.
