California Catheter Lawyers for PowerPort / AngioDynamics Claims
Our team of California 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 California 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 California 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.

California Catheter Lawyer Files Port Implant Lawsuits Statewide
CA catheter port lawsuits can be filed in state or federal court. Selecting a jurisdiction is generally based on: 1) whether all parties inhabit California, and 2) the severity of port implant infections.
9th Circuit Catheter Claims in California
California is part of the Ninth 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 9th Circuit Court of Appeals.
However, federal catheter lawsuits filed in California 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 9th Circuit catheter compensation.)
California State Port-A-Cath Claims
California catheter lawyers can also file port implant lawsuits in the State’s county courts (CA Courts Website). Section 1714 of the California Civil Code sets forth the State’s procedural law for port-a-cath claims.
The State of California follows a pure comparative negligence rule. Accordingly, a California 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).
