IVC blood clot filter lawyers in Washington, D.C., Baltimore, Maryland, and Virginia

IVC filter lawsuitIVC blood clot filters are meant to keep patients safe by catching blood clots in the veins before they enter the heart, lungs, or brain. Unfortunately, many patients are experiencing severe injuries due to defects which cause the filter device to fall apart and travel through the cardiovascular system. If you or a loved one suffered a serious injury due to a defective IVC (Inferior Vena Cava) blood clot filter, you may be entitled to substantial compensation.

Individuals report experiencing serious problems caused by IVC filter implants, including:

  • Metal fragments perforating the heart or lungs
  • Hemorrhaging
  • Serious bleeding or death
  • Lower Limb DVT
  • Shortness of breath
  • Puncture to the Vena Cava
  • Pulmonary Embolism

The Cochran Firm, D.C. is investigating injury claims related to several models of IVC filters, including:

  • Bard G2 IVC Filters
  • Bard Recovery Inferior Vena Cava Filters
  • Cook Celect or Gunther Tulip IVC Filters

The spider-like metallic device is meant to prevent pulmonary embolisms, but carries serious defects and risks, including the device splintering, migrating through the vascular system, and penetrating organs. Metal fragments traveling into the heart or lungs may cause severe discomfort and may need to be surgically removed. Patients also report blood clots developing at the filter site.
