Endo International Agrees to $830 Million Settlement in Transvaginal Mesh (TVM) Cases

by

By Stephen Leshner of Stephen I. Leshner PC on Thursday, May 8, 2014.

Endo International PLC agreed to pay $830 Million to settle about 20,000 lawsuits filed by women who say they were injured by transvaginal mesh devices.  While not admitting fault, the company said the settlement will cover a substantial majority of the mesh litigation brought against its American Medical Systems subsidiary.  This settlement is in addition to the $54.5 Million Endo agreed to pay last year to settle an undisclosed number of TVM cases.

The Endo agreement is still subject to several conditions, including confirmation of medical records for all claimants.  TVM cases against other Defendants, including C.R. Bard, Inc. and Johnson & Johnson’s Ethicon unit, are pending.

Stephen I. Leshner, P.C. is representing many women who were injured as a result of defective TVM products, against all manufacturers, including Endo and American Medical Systems.  If you or someone close to you has been injured as a result of a defective transvaginal mesh product, please call Phoenix Arizona product liability attorney Steve Leshner for a free consultation.
