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.

Virginia Catheter Lawyer Files Port Implant Lawsuits Statewide
VA catheter port lawsuits can be filed in state or federal court. Selecting a jurisdiction is generally based on: 1) whether all parties inhabit Virginia, and 2) the severity of port implant infections.
4th Circuit Catheter Claims in Virginia
Virginia is part of the Fourth 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 4th Circuit Court of Appeals.
However, federal catheter lawsuits filed in Virginia 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 4th Circuit catheter compensation.)
Virginia State Port-A-Cath Claims
Virginia catheter lawyers can also file port implant lawsuits in the State’s county courts聽(VA Courts Website). Title 8.01 of the Code of Virginia sets forth the State’s Civil Remedies and Procedure law for port-a-cath claims.
The State of Virginia follows a pure contributory negligence rule. Accordingly, a Virginia catheter lawyer can recover damages for wrongful conduct by PowerPort or AngioDynamics provided the plaintiff does not share fault.
