Event Description

Dear medwatch, or to whom ever it may concern; i've contacted (b)(6), concerning representation in a double hernia mesh claim, with which i underwent surgery in 2007.I've been having complication since my surgery, but i've only been to the dr on two or three separate occasions for it since the 2007 surgery.(b)(6) attorneys decided not to represent me in this case, but advised me to not know any other law firms who handling hernia mesh cases.Then the (b)(6) attorneys advised me to contact your office for assistance, because you report serious reactions and problems with medical products, such as drugs and medical devices, and they also mentioned that i could also consult with your resource officer.I'm not sure what they mean about that.I would like to know is there anyway that your office can assist me in this matter, or know of any other law firms who may willing to assist me in this matter? and also i would like to know does your office have any other cases on medical products, medical devices, etc? thank you.I look forward to hearing from your office soon.(b)(6).
