Wisconsin Catheter Lawyers for PowerPort / AngioDynamics Claims
Our team of Wisconsin catheter attorneys has represented thousands of victims of dangerous medical devices. In doing so, we have recovered millions of dollars in settlement funds on their behalf.
However, we only pursue compensation from catheter manufacturers and affillates, and do not file claims against our clients’ doctors, hospitals, or caregivers.
No Legal Fee Unless You Obtain a Settlement
While compensation may be available to qualified catheter claimants, victims are urged to act promptly. The #1 claim Wisconsin catheter attorneys can make for infection compensation is one filed within the Statute of Limitations. Follow this link for our latest information on聽catheter multi-district litigation (MDL).
Our Wisconsin catheter lawyers are available to review claims now. We offer a free case evaluation to confirm use of a qualified catheter port and diagnosis of a related injury. Further, we never charge a legal fee unless a financial recovery is obtained for our client.

Wisconsin Catheter Lawyer Files Port Implant Lawsuits Statewide
WI catheter port lawsuits can be filed in state or federal court. Selecting a jurisdiction is generally based on: 1) whether all parties inhabit Wisconsin, and 2) the severity of port implant infections.
7th Circuit Catheter Claims in Wisconsin
Wisconsin is part of the Seventh Circuit of the federal court system, and individual catheter lawsuits can be filed at its local U.S. District Court. Catheter port appeals are heard by the 7th Circuit Court of Appeals.
However, federal catheter lawsuits filed in Wisconsin may be transferred to a centralized jurisdiction pursuant to a PowerPort or AngioDynamics Multi-District Litigation (MDL) Transfer Order. (Follow this link for our additional information on 7th Circuit catheter compensation.)
Wisconsin State Port-A-Cath Claims
Wisconsin catheter lawyers can also file port implant lawsuits in the State’s county courts聽(WI Courts Website). Chapters 801 – 847 of the Wisconsin Statutes sets forth the State’s procedural law for port-a-cath claims.
The State of Wisconsin follows a modified comparative negligence rule. Accordingly, a Wisconsin catheter lawyer can recover damages for wrongful conduct by PowerPort or AngioDynamics regardless of what portion of fault may be assigned to the plaintiff. However, the port-a-cath patient’s financial award may be reduced by their own degree of fault (if any).
