Stryker FAQ
How do I determine if I have a Stryker Hip-related injury?
Read all the information on our website and elsewhere on the internet. If you have a Stryker Hip, consult your doctor. Discuss your concerns and any symptoms with him or her.
How do I learn whether or not I have a valid and collectible Stryker Hip injury claim?
We can help you with this. We will do a preliminary investigation of your claim at no cost to you. If we determine that your claim has merit, and you choose to have us represent you, we will do so on a contingent fee basis. This means we are paid only if we win your claim and you collect.
Can I handle my Stryker Hip injury claim myself, without a lawyer?
This is technically possible, but it would be unwise to even attempt it. Medical device injury litigation is highly complex. Most lawyers would not even attempt this. Only those few lawyers experienced in Stryker Hip injury litigation should file these claims.
Can you represent me with my Stryker Hip injury claim even though I do not live in Arizona?
For more than 50 years, we have successfully represented people throughout the United States who were harmed by an array of dangerous products, including defective medical devices and prescription drugs.
It makes good sense to hire a local lawyer to handle purely local matters, such as drafting wills, real estate disputes and divorce. For matters that are potentially national in scope, however, and as complex as Stryker Hip injury litigation, it is best not to limit your search for a law firm to your area.
Your lawsuit may not even be filed in the state where you live. Another state may be more appropriate and more favorable for your claim. We work with experienced co-counsel in all areas of the country.
If you decide to work with us, you will find that the physical distance between us means nothing. We will quickly get to know each other personally, and our friendly and professional staff of lawyers and paralegals will be greatly attentive and responsive to all your needs.
If I decide to go forward with a Stryker Hip injury claim, will you handle my case on a contingent fee basis?
Yes. We are paid only if we win your case and you collect. Otherwise, you pay nothing—no fees and no expenses.
How much is my Stryker Hip injury claim worth?
It is impossible for any lawyer, or anyone else, to answer this question in advance of thorough preparation of your claim. Many factors must be weighed in the course of evaluation of every Stryker Hip injury claim. These include medical evidence of the extent of your injuries, and your present and future losses (monetary and others).
How much time do I have to make a decision about moving forward with my Stryker Hip injury claim?
Simply stated, it is best to retain a lawyer to represent you as soon as possible following a Stryker Hip-related injury. Statutes of limitation vary among states, and different statutes may apply to your claim. If these legal deadlines expire, your claim may be permanently barred. Because the investigation of your claim will require some time, it is wise to get started at the earliest time possible. Furthermore, the sooner a claim is initiated, the sooner we can get compensation for you and your family.
How do I get started?
It's simple; just call us. We will answer all your questions in strict confidence and without any obligation. Then, if you choose to have us represent you, we will begin work on your Stryker Hip injury case immediately.
We would like to help you, just as we have helped so many other people who were harmed by dangerous products.
Remember, the law firm you choose makes a difference!
