Don't Let Corporate Negligence Compromise Your Health. We Are Here to Fight.

For years, thousands of patients trusted C.R. Bard's retrievable blood filters to prevent pulmonary embolisms and improve their recovery. Unfortunately, the company is accused of taking dangerous shortcuts and rushing its IVC filter products to market without adequate testing, resulting in devices that fractured, migrated, and perforated at alarmingly high rates.

New evidence suggests that C.R. Bard's IVC filters, including the Recovery, G2, and Eclipse models, are linked to life-threatening complications, catastrophic internal injuries, and wrongful death.

If you or a loved one has suffered severe injury or death due to a faulty IVC filter, you are not alone, and you may be entitled to significant compensation. At Jason J. Joy & Associates, we specialize in holding large corporations accountable for the harm they cause. We understand the physical, emotional, and financial toll a traumatic medical event takes on a family, and we are ready to fight for the justice you deserve.

The Danger in Your Vein: The Link Between Bard IVC Filters and Fatal Injuries

In the early 2000s, C.R. Bard saw a moneymaking opportunity in developing a retrievable IVC filter, allegedly scrambling to beat competitors. Lawsuits claim the company prioritized market share over patient safety by misrepresenting to the FDA that its new retrievable filters were "substantially similar" to existing, older devices to take advantage of a streamlined approval process.

Instead of halting sales once complications arose, Bard allegedly continued to market and sell the filters, assuring doctors and patients that there was no real problem. Yet, FDA databases revealed that between 2004 and 2008, Bard's filters were responsible for half of all reported adverse events and 70% of all reported filter failures.

These allegations and the resulting patient deaths send a clear message: Companies must be held accountable when their products harm consumers.

Do You Have a Claim? Eligibility Requirements

• Severe Injury: You were diagnosed with a complication such as filter fracture, migration, or perforation of the vena cava or an adjacent organ.
