Top Law Firm in Atlanta for Zimmer Brand Durom Cup Hip Implant Lawsuits

The Zimmer Durom Cup is also called the Zimmer Durom Acetabular component. It was introduced to the market as a superior alternative to existing hip implant choices. This particular hip implant was released to the public in 2006.

It differentiated itself from other hip implants that used epoxy, screws, or cement to hold the implant in place. Instead, the Durom was made to hold the individual’s socket as the bone grew into the shell of the device.

However, this design immediately began to cause problems in patients that received it. Zimmer failed to warn these patients about the risks and danger that the Durom implant presented. Learn more about how an Atlanta defective product lawyer can help.

What are the Side Effects of a Defective Zimmer Durom Cup Hip Replacement?

Zimmer brand Durom Cup implants have a tendency to corrode in the patient’s body. Some of the first signs that a patient has blood poisoning from corrosion include decreased mobility and pain.

This corrosion can lead to severe problems that include:

  • Pain
  • Metallosis
  • Discomfort
  • Loosened medical device
  • Inflammations
  • Swelling
  • Stiffness
  • Decreased motion range

When you are unsure of whether or not you have a valid claim, then you should contact an attorney to discuss your situation. You may have grounds for a lawsuit.

Why Was the Zimmer Durom Hip Implant Recalled?

The manufacturer of the Durom Cup Hip replacement has known about the detrimental effects of the medical device since 2007. The company was warned by a consultant that year that the hip implant was unsafe and should be removed from the market. It was 2008 before Zimmer accepted the advice and removed the implant from the market.

They used the excuse that additional training and technique instructions were needed. The Zimmer Durom Hip Cup, Head, and Neck Adapter was the model that was recalled.

A study released in 2010 examined the results of patients that received the Zimmer Cup hip implant. Approximately eleven percent of individuals that received the cup implant had experienced difficulties following the surgery.

I chose this law firm due to the great reviews that I read online, and it was the best decision i’ve ever made! From start to finish the staff at Angell handled my cases really well. They are very professional, they know what they’re doing, and they have no problem answering questions and taking time to walk you through the process. When dealing with big insurance companies, it’s great to have a team to help negotiate to get what you truly deserve. Special thanks to Annie and Deanna as I worked more closely with them but the entire staff is amazing! If you need a lawyer I definitely recommend them. Thanks so much!

This was my first experience with Angell Law Firm so I didn't know what to expect. My case manager was Breanna and she was very professional, adamant and efficient. I was so impressed with how fast she was with the process in its entirety. If anyone ask which law firm to team up with I will recommend Angel Law Firm. Thank you so much.

I used the Angell Law Firm for a car accident that I had. From beginning to end they were very knowledgeable of the process and answer all my questions, the staff was very professional and extremely helpful with all the process. What I like the most is that no matter how many times I call, to follow up with my case they would always answer my call in a courteous way and if they can't they would immediately return my calls. I was very happy with the outcome of my case and how they make it easy for me to go through this process. I will recommend them to anyone in need of a good injury lawyer. Elida Castillo and Breanna Baggio were very kind and courteous and professional.

This comment is about Bryce Angell and Law Associate with his frim ,I tell you the truth and nothing but the truth after going through lies, not getting return phone calls delay after delay about my case. So after about seventeen months I decide enough is enough.I call the Angell Law Frim and talk to their legal team and they accepted my case. The next few hours a representative came out to talk to me and was straight forward expertise advice took my filed and the next month my case had settle for a lot more than what I was told that I could get from the previous Attorney. The Angell Law Firm is very transparent and will not keep you in the dark and will return your call back . The Angell Law Firm let you know they work for you and not the other way around. (very professional):) James
