Defective Zimmer Durom Cup Hip Implants

Filing a Claim for Compensation against Zimmer

In 2006, Zimmer Holdings began selling their new metal-on-metal "Durom Cup" hip implant component, which they promoted as enabling users to achieve a wider range of motion while providing them with less wear and tear than standard components. Less than three years later, in 2008, they declared that they were suspending sales of the Durom Cup because of an above average failure rate.

When a hip implant is defective, it often limits the user's mobility and causes them a great deal of pain. They may not be able to conduct tasks that they used to and forced to deal with extreme discomfort. If you or someone you love had a Durom Cup installed and it is now failing, or has already failed, you may be entitled to financial compensation. Legal action is already starting against Zimmer for their negligence. Should you not obtain proper counsel and attempt to pursue action on your own, you risk making critical mistakes or misunderstanding key procedures that can lower your final settlement.
