Are you concerned about the statute of limitations on your pelvic mesh injury? Don't be. Never assume that it's too late to seek recovery or seek justice against those whose negligence caused this terrible physical and/or emotional pain. In most cases, the statutes of limitations for pelvic mesh complications are not set in stone. Certain dates will likely get called into question but even this is not so cut and dry.
For example, there is a date of your initial surgery, possibly a date for additional surgeries, possibly a date that mesh was removed, a date when the FDA issued their initial warning, dates of clinical trials, dates from when symptoms started to arise, dates when you spoke with your doctor/surgeon, etc. As you can see there is a lot of wiggle room when determining when your statute of limitations (SOL) began. But it still requires an attorney, qualified in complex litigation, to plead your case. Even though the SOL can be 'gray' you're still encouraged to speak with a lawyer as soon as possible, as to minimize any attempts to call the SOL into question.
Don't assume your opportunity has passed. You may be surprised by what our lawyers can do for you. The most important step is making initial contact. Your conversation is free and always confidential. There is no obligation and no risk to speak with one of our experts. There is literally no downside to taking a chance and speaking with our pelvic mesh lawyers. And if we feel you have a case, there could be considerable upside.
We will not make you part of a class action as other firms may attempt to do. We will treat you as an individual and give your case the individual attention it deserves.
It always helps to know that when faced with a difficult set of circumstances, others have gone through what you're going through. With regards to women who have received pelvic mesh implants, over 10% of them have suffered injuries from these defective products. Symptoms include mesh erosion, perforation of tissues and organs, incontinence, pain during intercourse, infections, and bleeding.
