Searcy Denney Scarola Barnhart & Shipley PA Seeks Damages Caused by Recalled Product
Date:8/8/2012

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla., Aug. 8, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- South Florida law firm Searcy Denney Scarola Barnhart & Shipley PA (Searcy Denney) announced today that it has filed the first lawsuit against Howmedica Osteonics Corporation, dba Stryker Orthopaedics, claiming damages caused by the company's defective and recalled Rejuvenate and ABG II hip implant systems.

The suit was filed in Bergen County, New Jersey Superior Court, by Searcy Denney and Weitz & Luxenberg on behalf of plaintiffs Dianne and Phillip Pingel. The plaintiffs allege that the defendant was negligent and failed to use reasonable care for the safety and well-being of patients in the development, testing, marketing, packaging, and selling of the defective product.

On July 4, 2012, Stryker posted a national recall of the Rejuvenate and ABG II hip implant systems apparently after receiving multiple reports of the premature failure of those implants. "That recall is tantamount to an unequivocal admission by the defendant as to the dangers and defects of their product," said Cal Warriner, a shareholder at Searcy Denney, who represents Mr. and Mrs. Pingel. "Stryker must now redress the damages that these defective systems have caused."

The lawsuit seeks compensatory and punitive damages to cover the medical, hospital, rehabilitation, and pharmaceutical costs incurred by the plaintiffs as a direct result of the implant failures.

"Currently there are more than 60 adverse event reports filed with the FDA's MAUDE incident reporting system," Warriner added. "The Rejuven
