Johnson & Johnson designed and sold DePuy Pinnacle hip replacements that leave toxic amounts of chromium in the blood supply. These replacements are metal on metal and have also been implicated in poor functionality, increased failure rate, metallosis, infection, dislocation and immobility. These parts must be removed. Thousands of these implants were used on patients throughout the country, and Faxon Law Group is prosecuting these cases as part of a Multi-District Litigation centered in Texas. These cases must be brought within three years of the discovery of a defect so time is of the essence!
