DePuy ASR Hip Replacement Statute of Limitations


DePuy ASR Hip Replacement Statute of LimitationsAn important question in any defective medical device claim is the length of time a victim has to file a claim against the products manufacturers. Generally the law provides a certain time period in which an injured party is able to bring a cause of action for monetary compensation for the losses suffered. Otherwise referred to as a Statute of Limitations, different jurisdictions provide varying time lines. Jurisdiction will usually be based on the location where the injury took place. Other factor may include, the age of the plaintiff, specific cause of the injury, and incapacitation of the victims. This page has been written by Mr. Farid Yaghoubtil one of our Medical Device Defect attorneys who is experienced and knowledgeable in Depuy ASR hip replacement claims. What if I live in a different state? Most defective product cases dealing with hip replacement injuries are handled in Federal Court. Cases handled in Federal Court are not based on a specific jurisdiction. Thus, this allows an attorney in New York or Texas to represent a client in any other Arizona or Indiana. In such a case your offices coordinate with you and obtain permission to access necessary medical data to evaluate and analyze  your case. After analyzing the facts and details pertaining to your case, we will file with the proper Federal Court and begin pursuing your case. It is important that you keep all medical data, prescriptions, names of doctors and hospitals you have visited for review. How long do I have to file my case for DePuy Mesh Hip Implant Injuries? Depending on the state or jurisdiction in which you reside the time limitations can be different. If you are filing a accidental injury cause of action will generally have 2 years from the date of injury to file a lawsuit in the state of California.  Defective Medical Device claims must also be filed within 2 years from the date of injury.

Exceptions to Statute of Limitations – Tolling of the Statute

Example #1: Client undergoes a Deputy Hip Implant Procedure in 2006. In January 2012 she experiences serious medical complications from the metal on metal hip implant. Under this fact patter the statute of limitations is tolled until the time of the discovery of her injuries. Thus she will have two years from January 2012 to file her claim. Example #2: Client undergoes a DePuy Hip Implant procedure in 2009. A few weeks after the implant the patient began to experience some severe side effects. Before she is able to seek legal representation the patient is struck by a motorcycle while walking and sustained serious injuries leaving her unable to seek out an attorney for his DePuy claim. In such cases the statute will be again be “tolled”. A statute can be tolled or stopped when there is a serious medical impairment or incapacitation,.  In this case the statute can likely be tolled due to the clients medical or health issues.
