Over the past few months, trial attorney Frank V. Cesarone negotiated $12,938,000 in combined resolutions on behalf of a small group of individuals injured by a defective medical device. Due to his tireless efforts and fierce advocacy, Frank obtained the group settlement to cover the costs of his client’s corrective surgeries, follow-up care, and general damages for pain and suffering.
“The medical device industry had flooded the market with dangerous products so corporations can make large profits. Sadly, in the process, these products have injured countless people,” said Frank Cesarone. “These large corporations will do anything possible to defect liability for their actions and negligence, leaving innocent people who are seriously harmed without fair compensation for their pain and injuries. Holding these companies accountable is the first step, but there is a lot more to be done to stop these dangerous products from continuing to devastate unsuspecting patient’s lives.”
That same month, Frank Cesarone alongside Peter Flowers also earned a former professional athlete a multi-million-dollar settlement after he was injured by a defective product. The victim endured years of painful complications, physical limitations, and extensive medical treatments that stripped him of his normal life.
