Seattle Drug and Medical Device Injury Lawyer

The drug and medical device market is one of the largest in the United States of America. In 2020, the market size was valued at over $175 billion USD with an annual expected growth rate of 5.0%. As the market keeps growing, injuries related to the products produced by the industry grow with it.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, the market for medical devices skyrocketed. Personal medical devices suddenly entered the homes of everyday Americans. While many of these devices aided in the slow of the global pandemic, new conversations began to come to light concerning devices that were faulty or did not work.

At Elk & Elk, we have experienced Seattle drug and medical device injury lawyers who are able to protect your rights following your incident. We have seen these same issues being talked about today for decades in Washington state, and are ready to recover the compensation you deserve.

The Different Types of Medical Device Injuries in Washington State

While you may put your health in the hands of a medical professional, some faulty medical devices and drugs still make it through the Federal Drug Administration’s (FDA) arduous process of approval. Liability for a faulty medical device or pharmaceutical can be tough to determine. However, the injuries that you or a loved one sustain as a result of these defective products can be substantial and life-changing:

  • Chronic pain
  • Disability, full or partial
  • Allergic reactions
  • Strokes or heart attacks
  • Organ damage, loss, or failure
  • Bone fractures or breakages
