Maine Cartiva Lawyers Advocate for Toe Implant Victims
Our team of Maine Cartiva attorneys has represented thousands of victims of defective medical implants. In doing so, we have recovered millions of dollars in settlement funds on their behalf.
However, we only pursue compensation from the device manufacturers and their affiliates, and do not file claims against our clients’ doctors or hospitals.
No Legal Fee Unless You Obtain a Settlement
While compensation may be available to qualified arthritis surgery claimants, victims are urged to act promptly. The #1 claim Maine Cartiva patients can make for toe implant compensation is one filed within the Statute of Limitations. Click here for our latest information on the pending Cartiva multi-district litigation (MDL).
Our Maine Cartiva implant lawyers are available to review claims now. We offer a free case evaluation to confirm the use of a Cartiva device and a related surgery or injury. Further, we never charge a legal fee unless a financial recovery is obtained for our client.

1st Circuit Cartiva Claims in Maine
Maine is part of the First Circuit of the federal court system, and Cartiva implant lawsuits can be filed at its local U.S. District Court. Arthritis device appeals are heard by the 1st Circuit Court of Appeals.
However, federal Cartiva lawsuits filed in Maine may be transferred to a centralized jurisdiction pursuant to a toe implant Multi-District Litigation (MDL) Transfer Order. (Follow this link for our additional information on 1st Circuit Cartiva compensation.)
Maine State Cartiva Claims
Maine Cartiva lawyers can also file toe implant lawsuits in the State’s county courts (ME Courts website). The Maine Rules of Civil Procedure sets forth the State’s procedural law for implant recall claims.
The State of Maine follows a modified comparative negligence rule. Accordingly, a Maine toe implant lawyer can recover damages for wrongful conduct by Cartiva provided the plaintiff is less than 50% at fault. However, the arthritis patient’s victim’s recovery may be reduced by their own degree of fault (if any).
