We now arrange After The Event Insurance for the growing number of people claiming against all-metal hip implant manufacturers.

The British Medical Journal and Newsnight (BBC) have exposed manufacturers of all-metal hip implants as being aware of problems with their designs as long ago as 2009. The problems stem from the use of metal both in the socket and ball part of the implant. Friction between the ball and socket over time results in potentially toxic shavings of cobalt and chromium breaking off and entering the surrounding tissue and even the patient’s bloodstream, causing severe complications.

We support solicitors taking action against these manufacturers with our flexible and comprehensive Defective Hip ATE Insurance policy.
