DePuy ASR Hip Implant

DePuy ASR Hip Implant Lawsuits. Parker Waichman LLP continues to file metal-on-metal hip replacement lawsuits on behalf of alleged victims of DePuy Orthopaedics’ recalled ASR hip implant devices. On May 7, the firm filed a new complaint on behalf of a 51-year-old woman from Virginia who had to have ASR hip implants removed and replaced just three years after she underwent a bi-lateral hip replacement with the devices.

According to her lawsuit, the plaintiff received Bi-Lateral ASR hip implants on February 13, 2007. In October 2010, she suffered pain, as well as elevated chromium and cobalt levels, allegedly due to her implants.  The devices were removed on June 6, 2011.

This latest lawsuit was filed in U.S. District Court for the District of Northern Ohio, where more than 4,200 DePuy ASR Hip Implant lawsuits are pending in a consolidated litigation.  The litigation’s first bellwether trials, which will help gauge how juries might rule in similar cases, are expected to begin by early next year.

DePuy Faces Another 2,000 Claims Filed

In addition to the federal litigation, DePuy faces another 2,000 or so claims filed in state courts around the country. Las Vegas, Nevada will be the site of the first state court trial, scheduled to begin in December.  A Maryland lawsuit will go to trial in January.

All of the DePuy ASR hip implant lawsuits share similar allegations that the devices can shed dangerous amount of metal debris in patients, leading to early implant failure, tissue and possible long-term health problems.  DePuy issued a worldwide recall of the implants in August 2012, after they were found to be failing prematurely in a high number of patients.

My name is Shantasia and I was recommended to PWL back in may of 2020 an let me tell you this, my experience with PWL was great! Not only did they take good care of my daughter and I but they didn’t give up until we gotten what we deserved. I’d settled a year later and it was definitely worth it. Had also recommended two people to work with them on their cases during the time of my case and I hope everything works out in their favors. In my time working with them I’d spoke with a couple of people there but Josephine was my favorite she really did her thing for us and made us a priority and I really loved that! If you’re looking to get justice for any accidents I HIGHLY RECOMMEND you call Parker Waichman Law. Promise you won’t be disappointed! :)

I can't thank Yesenia and the team at Parker Waichman for helping me with my case. I was treated with the most professional help and respect. I can't thank them enough for handling everything without ease and always keeping me updated on my case. This was my first case dealing with lawyers and Yesenia guided me and was very knowledgable. Thank you again to her and everyone at Parker Waichman!
