Boca Raton Philips CPAP Lawsuit Lawyer

In June of 2021, the widely trusted medical supply company, Philips Respironics, issued a recall of some of their CPAP, BiPAP, and mechanical ventilator products. If you were affected by this recall and faced health problems related to a CPAP machine, you could seek compensation. 

When you’re ready to seek justice, a Boca Raton Philips CPAP lawsuit lawyer from Chalik & Chalik Injury Lawyers is ready to help. We require no upfront fees to get started on your case.  

Have You been Negatively Affected By a Philips CPAP Machine?

While Philips notified the public of a potential health risk associated with using some of their CPAP machines, it was too little, too late for many. According to the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA), the foam used to decrease the amount of noise the machines make, called polyester-based polyurethane foam (or PE-PUR foam) was breaking down.

This breakdown may have led to lung injuries for some users as well as an increased cancer risk. Philips Respironics explains which devices are affected. If you’ve been using one of these devices, news of a recall for potentially dangerous effects can be scary.

If you are experiencing physical or emotional distress because of the use and recall of these products, you might be eligible for compensation.

What Are My Options If my CPAP Device Has been Recalled?

You could be suffering from serious symptoms and illnesses caused by a recalled sleep apnea machine, and you shouldn’t have to pay for medical costs that a product maker caused. 

Our team can tell you more about your legal options to file suit. Through a CPAP lawsuit, you could seek compensation for your:

• Medical bills: You could be facing a cancer diagnosis, respiratory damage, and other painful health conditions due to the use of a defective CPAP machine. We could help you seek compensation for necessary medications, therapies, testing, emergency room care, hospitalizations, and other medical bills.
• Pain and suffering: Dealing with serious health problems can leave you in physical pain, and you could even be struggling with your emotional wellbeing.
• Income losses: Your career could be affected by a serious health condition. You could seek compensation for missed paychecks and reduced earning potential.

Other forms of compensation could be available to you based on the unique details of your case.
