Profemur Hip Implant Lawsuits

Our Lawyers Are Reviewing Claims for Victims of Profemur Hip Implants

There have been stories for years about people who suffer after their hip replacement surgeries. For many, hip replacement parts have required corrective surgeries to relieve the pain and problems they have caused.

The Wright Profemur hip implant device has a history of problems and of being embroiled in litigation. The Profemur hip replacement implant is currently at the center of a new round of litigation over its allegedly defective design.

Dozens of victims across the country have filed lawsuits against Wright Medical Technology, Inc over the Profemur device. These individuals claim the parts are defective and caused serious injuries, including surgery, pain, and decreased mobility.

If you received a hip replacement using Wright’s Profemur and are suffering or suffered complications, call our defective medical device lawyers at Alonso Krangle, LLP. We have experience representing victims of hip replacement injuries caused by defective medical devices like Profemur and do so with skill and compassion.

Call us today for a free evaluation of your Profemur hip implant claim and find out if you are entitled to compensation for your injuries.

What is The Profemur Hip Replacement Implant?

The Profemur hip implant (sometimes referred to as the Profemur Z hip replacement) is marketed to people who have active lifestyles and want to maintain them. Unlike traditional hip replacement devices, which are made of a single part, the Profemur is made of three.

The Profemur device is a modular system intended to allow for more flexibility and agility than others.

Lawsuits Allege Profemur Hip Replacement is Defective

Lawsuits have been filed, claiming that the Profemur Hip replacement is defectively designed and that it causes more harm than good. There are allegations that the Profemur degrades, fractures, and frets at a faster rate than other hip implant devices.

Some people claim the modular design itself lends itself to wearing out faster than other devices and that Wright should have known this and warned consumers. Marketing materials, instead, claim that the Profemur is supposed to last at least fifteen years. Studies, however, have shown that Profemur has a higher-than-average failure rate after only three years.

Profemur Hip Implant Injuries

Victims report various injuries from the Profemur hip implant. Many victims required the implant’s removal and additional surgeries to address the injuries and the underlying hip problems. Other reported injuries include:

  • Trouble walking
  • Difficulty standing
  • Difficulty going from the sitting to a standing position
  • Intense pain in the hip
  • Intense pain in the groin area
  • Extreme pain in thigh
  • Extreme pain in the lower back
  • Stiffness

If you have a Profemur hip implant and are experiencing any of these symptoms, please speak to your doctor.

Judicial Panel Has Consolidated Profemur Litigation

Because so many people are filing Profemur lawsuits against Wright, the US Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation affirmed the plaintiffs’ motion to consolidate the cases for pretrial purposes. This means that one judge will oversee the cases in one court to increase the efficiency of the case for everyone involved.

Profemur lawsuits involve similar allegations and injuries against Wright. Defective medical device claims usually include:

  • Profemur hip implants have design defects
  • Profemur hip implants cause injuries
  • Wright knew or should have known the Profemur hip replacement would cause injuries
  • Wright should have warned the public about the dangers of the Profemur hip implant
  • Wright could have made the Profemur safer

If you received a hip replacement using the Profemur and suffered complications and injuries, you might be eligible to collect compensation. Our dangerous medical device lawyers can determine if you have a claim for damages.

Absolutely Instrumental in Helping Me Expose Medicare Fraud That My Former Employer Was Engaging In
When you have to fight Goliath you better call David. Dave was absolutely instrumental in helping me expose Medicare fraud that my former employer (one of the largest pharmaceutical companies in the world) was engaging in. Dave took the time to listen to my concerns and my evidence. He worked tirelessly to bring the best resources to table so that our case would be investigated thoroughly and prosecuted. In the end, the Goliath was defeated thanks to Dave!

Strongly Recommend Alonso Krangle As a Highly Experienced And Respected Firm

I consulted a close friend and well respected lawyer in the mid-Atlantic region regarding my hip revision surgery due to a medical device recall. Without hesitation, he strongly recommended contacting Alonso Krangle LLP to discuss my case. In his view, Alonso Krangle possessed extensive knowledge and experience in the type of litigation my case required, as well the respect of those throughout the judicial field for their professionalism. Equally as important, their personal focus on each individual’s case gives the client a feeling they are their only concern. My friend’s assessment could not have been more accurate.

Although in New York, Alonso Krangle could not have been more responsive or accommodating if they were located here in Virginia. I cannot recall a single time when my wife or I called their office and did not speak to either Andres Alonso or David Krangle. They were always completely available and ready to answer any and all of our questions. Their advice and recommendations were always honest, sincere, and accurate enabling us to plan accordingly. Legal proceedings can be a long process, but we never felt left out or forgotten thanks to timely updates initiated by Alonso Krangle. In the end, everything turned out as Alonso Krangle estimated from the beginning. I could not have expected better personal attention or concern from a family member handling my case. As with my friend, I too, would not hesitate to strongly recommend Alonso Krangle as a highly experienced and respected firm that will treat you like family.

Dave Krangle Worked Restlessly On This Case Until We Won
I consider David Krangle as my attorney for many years now. Going back about 13 years ago my father was involved in a hit and run accident. David had gone the extra mile to win our case….. Mr. David Krangle worked restlessly on this case until we won the case. Since then, if anybody asks for a good attorney I recommend David Krangle with confidence. He has helped a number of my friends and relatives and they all appreciated his professionalism, prompt responses to any inquiry during case development, careful study of all details pertaining to their case. He treats his clients as family. Thank you, Mr. Krangle, wishing you a continued success, good health and prosperity.

We were very fortunate to meet David Krangle
My husband and myself had been involved in a multiple vehicle accident 5 years ago. At that time we were given the name of Mr. David Krangle, attorney. It took close to 5 years of very diligent work for Mr Krangle to complete our case to everyone’s satisfaction. During those years of endless hours and hours of work that he put into our case yet whenever we reached out to Dave (as the years allowed us to call him) he was always available to us. His patience did seem endless. His professionalism in researching everything to make our turnout perfect for us was everything we expected and let us rest knowing things are following the right path. I know we were treated with the utmost respect from various insurance companies and other attorney’s because that was something Mr Krangle made sure of. In difficult times it can be intimidating to work with a professional but we were very fortunate to meet David Krangle who had the ability to share warmth and compassion with us during a trying time. Those are traits that we admired in David Krangle and are delighted to have worked with him.

You’ll be in good hands!

I was involved in an accident and needed a good Personal Injury Attorney. A friend referred me to David Krangle of Alonso Krangle LLP. After my initial phone conversation with David, I was confident that I found the right Attorney. David was not only extremely thorough, he kept me updated on every stage of my case. Most importantly, he was always available for questions and followed-up promptly. In most cases, the same day. Since there was a 3-hour time zone difference, I was very appreciative from a client stand point.

With his expertise and guidance, I had a successful outcome. I felt very fortunate that David and his wonderful staff represented me.

If you ever find yourself in need of expert legal advice and guidance. I highly recommend you contact David Krangle of Alonso Krangle LLP. You’ll be in good hands!
