Drug and Medical Device
The lawyers who make up our drug and medical device litigation group possess a wide range of skills and expertise in resolving matters arising from the use of implanted and external medical devices, as well as pharmaceutical prescriptions and over-the-counter medications. Our experience includes claims and lawsuits involving all aspects of product liability, drug interaction, compliance issues, medical monitoring, off-label use of drugs, and device fraud.

We represent drug and medical device manufacturers, as well as component product suppliers and distributors. Lawyers from this section have served as national coordinating defense counsel for a variety of defendants in medical device and vaccine litigation, and have served as local and regional counsel in breast implant, orthopedic bone screw and diet drug litigation.

Dietary Supplements and Functional Foods
Macdonald Devin lawyers represent manufacturers, designers, distributors, and marketers of food, nutraceutical and dietary supplement products, including both privately and publicly held companies, in litigation in Texas and across the country.

Our lawyers work to provide solutions to our clients on matters pertinent to the industry, including compliance with the Dietary Supplement and Health Education Act of 1994 ("DSHEA") and related state and federal regulations, clinical testing protocols, regulatory reviews of health claims, and advertising compliance.

In the event of a dispute, our lawyers provide adept counseling to resolve issues with efficiency and effectiveness. We work with our clients to avoid litigation when possible through innovative methods and resolutions, including alternative dispute resolution ("ADR") strategies such as mediation and arbitration. When litigation is necessary, our lawyers work closely with our clients to prosecute or defend aggressively and with maximum effect.
