Our Ohio PowerPort and AngioDynamics lawyers file catheter implant lawsuits for infections and more. Ohio PowerPort and AngioDynamics lawsuits claim catheter port manufacturers failed to protect patients from the risk of infection.
As such, OH chemo and fluid patients harmed by a catheter may be eligible to claim a cash settlement. (See our Ohio Catheter News)
Ohio Catheter Lawyers for PowerPort / AngioDynamics Claims
Our team of Ohio 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 Ohio catheter attorneys can make for infection compensation is one filed within the Statute of Limitations. Follow this link for our latest information on catheter multi-district litigation (MDL).
Our Ohio 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.

Ohio Catheter Lawyer Files Port Implant Lawsuits Statewide
OH catheter port lawsuits can be filed in state or federal court. Selecting a jurisdiction is generally based on: 1) whether all parties inhabit Ohio, and 2) the severity of port implant infections.
6th Circuit Catheter Claims in Ohio
Ohio is part of the Sixth 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 6th Circuit Court of Appeals.
However, federal catheter lawsuits filed in Ohio 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 6th Circuit catheter compensation.)
Ohio State Port-A-Cath Claims
Ohio catheter lawyers can also file port implant lawsuits in the State’s county courts (OH Courts Website). The Ohio Rules of Civil Procedure sets forth the State’s procedural law for port-a-cath claims.
The State of Ohio follows a modified comparative negligence rule. Accordingly, an Ohio catheter lawyer can recover damages for wrongful conduct by PowerPort or AngioDynamics provided the plaintiff is less than 51% at fault. However, the port-a-cath patient’s financial award may be reduced by their own degree of fault (if any).
