As part of the Plaintiff's Steering Committee our firm represented hundred of claimants who had defective internal cardiac defibrillators manufactured by Guidant in the Guidant Multidistrict Litigation. The investigation would lead to criminal charges on the corporation and the government ultimately fined Guidant $296 Million and ordered 3 years of probation for the company.
Guidant failed to report safety violations to the Food and Drug Administration regarding some of their defibrillators and it wasn't until two doctors reported the defects to the authorities that the devices were recalled because of product defect. There were 7 deaths associated with the recalled defibrillators.
