Description:

In 2001, Rhode Island based Davol, Inc. and its New Jersey based parent, C.R. Bard, Inc., sold tens of thousand of dangerous, defective hernia mesh patches of various sizes to needy individuals. Then in 2005 and 2006 these products were recalled due to exceedingly high failure rates, risk of piercings of the bowel and organs, fistulae formation, adhesions, bowel strangulation, infections, peritonitis, sepsis, organ shutdown and potentially death.

Please join Motley Rice LLC (the firm serving as co-lead counsel and liaison in the first ever RI Federal MDL and the Plaintiffs' Liaison Counsel in the Rhode Island Superior Court) attorney Vin Greene for a webinar discussing the complex litigation involving the recalled hernia patches on behalf of the victims of these dangerous medical devices.

Topics to be covered will include:

* Understanding the design and nature of Composix Kugel Mesh

* Identifying the range of injuries suffered by innocent victim-patients for intake purposes

* The current status and recent developments in both Federal and State Court
