A: I am sorry to read about your issues. I am not exactly sure what you are asking. It may be that you have a malpractice case or possibly a products liability case. You may even be part of a class action depending on who the manufacturer of the hip is. Please contact me or another injury lawyer as I cannot answer your question as stated.
