MANASQUAN, N.J., June 30, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Fair Rate Funding, a leader in defective hip lawsuit funding, reports that a Plaintiff was recently awarded $4.5 million by a jury in Los Angeles County on June 12, 2015 in favor of Alan Warner and his wife against Wright Medical Technologies, Inc.

Warner was implanted with one of Wright Medical's hip transplant products, the Profemur R implant. The implant fractured in 2010 and resulted in the need for numerous revision surgical procedures. The award consisted of $4 million for past and future pain and suffering and $500,000 to Warner's wife for loss of consortium. The jury found that although Wright Medical was not negligent in designing the implant, the defect occurred during the manufacturing process. More specifically, that the implant broke due to being weakened by a laser in the manufacturing process. Wright Medical is expected to appeal the verdict.
This case was the first to go to trial out of nearly 1,200 pending cases involving Wright Medical Technology Inc.'s metal hip implants. The majority of other lawsuits over allegedly defective Wright hip implants claim metal components in the devices ground together and released toxins into patients' blood. The Warner's case is the first time Wright has defended its metal hip implants before a jury in any capacity.
The trial lasted for three weeks and the 12-member jury deliberated for over a day and half before deciding in favor of Mr. Warner.
"It seems as though many of the trial verdicts involving hip implants are being decided in the plaintiff's favor. Unfortunately, the waiting must continue for injured plaintiffs," said Paul Coppola, President of Fair Rate Funding, a company which specializes in advancing cash to plaintiffs prior to settlement. "With over 1,000 claimants, litigants are not likely to see any monetary relief in the short term."
