MEDICAL COMPLICATIONS FROM HERNIA MESH IMPLANTS

 

Schmidt Salita Law Team recognizes March as Brain Injury Awareness Month #NotMyBrainInjury

 

Hernia mesh is implanted in the human body during the surgical repair of an abdominal hernia. The mesh is intended to support the tissue surrounding the injured are herniated area.  

The hernia mesh is a screen-like device that is made either of animal tissue or synthetic material. Synthetic mesh is more frequently used in hernia repair surgeries. 

It is well known that there are many hernia mesh complications which can cause severe side effects and often require corrective surgery. 

The US Food and Drug Administration has reported another number of adverse side effects resulting from the hernia mesh, including severe pain near the hernia site, infection, adhesions or scar tissue, bowel or intestinal blockage, nerve damage, and ordered an organ perforation. People who have previously undergone hernia surgery using mesh should contact a physician immediately if they have experienced any of these side effects.

CONTINGENT FEE ARRANGEMENTS AVAILABLE

A contingent fee agreement means you don’t have to pay for the lawyer’s service “up front.” Your lawyer agrees to work on your case without any payment until the lawyer produces a settlement. The lawyer will only get paid when the client receives compensation from a settlement or court judgment – and then as a percentage of the recovery.

Contingent fee agreements for lawyers are very similar to those of real estate agents who do their work without pay until the house gets sold; only then do the agents collect their fees as a percentage of the property’s total sales price.

This type of agreement has two big advantages. First, it allows the client to get the services of a personal injury attorney when they otherwise wouldn’t be financially able to pay for one. Second, a contingent fee agreement has a built-in incentive for the lawyer to do a good job because the larger the settlement the more the attorney is paid.
