A: I'm terribly sorry this happened to you. You're going to need to know the make and model of the knee replacement before calling an attorney. There are many lawsuits filed for medical devices such as this. They are contested until the very end, but you may very well have a claim. You've got some serious statute of limitations concerns - time is of the essence here.
