Our trial lawyers tried the very first successful case against Johnson & Johnson and DePuy Orthopedics for injuries caused by the ASR metal-on-metal hip prosthesis. The record-breaking jury verdict in that case was $8.35 million.
Prior to trial, the settlement offer had been less than $200,000. The case demonstrated the various defects in the device and has forced Johnson & Johnson and DePuy to take steps to resolve the more than 9,000 cases pending nationwide.
