Victoria Defective Medical Device Attorneys
Located in Victoria. Practicing State & Nationwide.
There is no room for error in the design and manufacturing of medical devices. While makers of medical devices employ a number of quality control measures to ensure the safety of their products, it’s all the more surprising when they fail and injure patients that use them.
At the law office of Cole, Cole, Easley & Sciba, P.C., our lawyers investigate the causes of medical device failures, analyzing corroded or defective parts while subpoenaing records and information from manufacturing facilities. In many cases, a sterile environment with properly trained employees is necessary to maintain the integrity of medical devices. Identifying failures and quality control problems often sheds light on why a medical device was defective or prone to failure.
To schedule a free consultation and learn how we can help you, contact our Victoria defective medical device attorneys at the law office of Cole, Cole, Easley & Sciba, P.C. today.

Foreseeability – Why Manufacturers Can Be Held Liable
Even if a manufacturer complies with product safety requirements in the manufacture of their product, they are still liable for design flaws and issues related to “foreseeability.” In essence, “foreseeability” relates to dangers and hazards a reasonable person could be expected to foresee given the circumstances and use of a product. For example, a paint manufacturer should foresee the need to place warning labels on their product given the possibility that someone might not realize it is flammable, unsafe to consume, or an irritant to the skin.
In cases involving defective medical devices, the issue may be one of foreseeability: should a manufacturer have realized dangers associated with the design of cables, batteries, circuitry, materials, or fail-safe options? In order to answer these questions, our lawyers consult design engineers, chemists, materials experts, and others in order to expose negligence on the part of medical device manufacturers.
If you have questions regarding the legal options available to injury victims of defective medical devices, contact Cole, Cole, Easley & Sciba, P.C. today or call (361) 678-3233 and schedule a free consultation to discuss your case. Se habla español.

Jim has provided legal counsel for me in several situations. I felt well-represented in a very professional way. The most difficult one was when I broke my neck in a car wreck. The insurance of the responsible party did not want to pay anything close to the amount I felt they owed. Jim led me through the process. It was a difficult case, but we settled during negotiations. I was impressed with Jim's guidance and support, and I was very pleased with the settlement. He is a great attorney!Cheryl O.
