Meyer Wilson sued big box retailers Lowe’s, Best Buy, and HH Gregg, alleging that those stores had installed the wrong type of vent on clothes dryers in their customers’ homes. The type of vents the stores were using could cause fires, according to the installation instructions given by manufacturers of the dryers themselves, the lawsuits alleged. As a result, Meyer Wilson argued that it wasn’t fair that the stores should be able to keep the money from their installation charges for such allegedly dangerous installations. In settling the cases on a classwide basis, each of the retailers agreed to re-do the installations with the proper type of vent - for any customer who wished - at no charge.

Hernia mesh implants can lead to severe complications that may necessitate revision surgeries. Numerous individuals who have suffered injuries from hernia mesh have already initiated legal actions to seek justice.
Call 866-938-2021 now to learn if you may be eligible for compensation through a hernia mesh lawsuit.
Hernias occur when an internal organ or tissue protrudes through a weak spot in the muscle or surrounding tissue. To address this, surgeons often utilize mesh implants to reinforce the weakened area and reduce the risk of the hernia recurring.
Since 2007, lawsuits have been filed against various hernia mesh manufacturers following claims of injuries and complications after hernia repair surgeries.
In this time, over 20,000 hernia mesh lawsuits have been filed.
These Hernia mesh lawsuits allege that manufacturers defectively designed, inadequately tested, or failed to properly warn users of potential risks associated with the use of hernia mesh.
Bard's Composix® Kugel Hernia Patch, for instance, utilized a memory recoil ring to maintain the shape of the mesh once inserted into the body. However, there were multiple reports of the ring breaking off, causing the mesh to fail.
Additionally, lawsuits against Covidien claim the polyester used in their hernia mesh products was more brittle than the material used by other brands, which increased the risk of mesh breakage and fragmentation.
Many hernia mesh products have been recalled in the past, including Atrium's C-Qur™ Mesh, Ethicon's Physiomesh™ Open Flexible Composite Mesh Device, and the Composix® Kugel Hernia Patch.
