Many women have experienced severe problems with transvaginal mesh implants, also referred to simply as vaginal mesh. This pliable, sling-like device is inserted into a woman’s body to support internal organs.

Harman Law Firm Defective Medical Device Attorneys Speak Out on Vaginal Mesh

Attorneys Matt Harman and Eric Fredrickson on Vaginal Mesh injuries:

If you or a woman you know have experienced injury, the side effects listed below, and possibly surgery to repair injury, contact the defective medical device attorneys at the Harman Law Firm immediately at (404) 554-0777 or contact us online. While there have been several verdicts in favor of women injured by the device, the manufacturers are changing their trial strategy and it may become more difficult to file a claim in the future.

• Erosion of vaginal tissue / mesh
• Perforations of the bowel, bladder or blood vessels
• Pelvic Organ Prolapse (POP)
• Stress Urinary Incontinence (SUI)
• Urinary problems
• Vaginal scarring
• Infection
