Georgia Hip and Joint Replacement Lawyers

For many Georgia residents suffering from severe pain and immobility due to a hip, knee, or other joint damaged by arthritis, disease, or injury, a joint replacement provides long term relief and allows the patient to resume their normal daily activities. Hundreds of thousands of Georgians have benefitted from a hip replacement, knee replacement, or other joint replacement.

In a joint replacement procedure, the patient's damaged joint is replaced by an artificial joint made of metal, ceramic, or special plastics. About 800,000 knee replacements and 200,000 hip replacements Hip and knee replacements have been very successful for about 90% of patients, but for some patients, the replacement joint fails due to a design or manufacturing defect.
