Our Accolade pacemaker lawyers file heart device lawsuits for patients requiring corrective surgery. Pacemaker lawsuits claim the Boston Scientific company failed to safely design its popular Accolade heart device.
As such, heart patients with a defective pacemaker may be eligible to claim a cash settlement.
Boston Scientific Failed to Warn Pacemaker Users
Our team of pacemaker attorneys has represented thousands of victims of dangerous medical devices. In doing so, we have recovered millions of dollars in settlement funds on their behalf.
However, we only pursue compensation from pacemaker producers, and do not file claims against our clients’ doctors or caregivers.
No Legal Fee Unless You Obtain a Settlement
While compensation may be available to qualified pacemaker claimants, victims are urged to act promptly. The #1 claim heart patients can make for a defective pacemaker is one filed within the Statute of Limitations. Follow this link for our latest information on pacemaker multi-district litigation.
Our pacemaker lawyers are available to review claims now. We offer a free case evaluation to confirm use of a qualified pacemaker and a related medical complication. Further, we never charge a legal fee unless a financial recovery is obtained for our client.

Pacemaker Recall Lawsuit Attorneys
National Legal Help for Recalled Heart Device Victims
Pacemakers save lives. These small electronic devices regulate the heartbeat. But when manufacturers cut corners or hide defects, pacemakers can fail.
The result can be deadly.
Patients rely on safe, functional implants. A faulty pacemaker can cause cardiac arrest, organ damage, or sudden death.
Our pacemaker recall lawyers help victims protect their rights. We hold manufacturers accountable. We pursue financial compensation for medical bills, pain, and long-term injury.
We handle complex device litigation across the United States.
What Is a Pacemaker?
A pacemaker is a medical device implanted under the skin. It helps control abnormal heart rhythms, known as arrhythmias.
It uses electrical pulses to prompt the heart to beat at a normal rate.
Pacemaker Components
-
Pulse generator (battery and computer)
-
Leads or electrodes (wires that connect to heart tissue)
-
Programmer (external tool doctors use to adjust the device)
Medical Conditions Treated with a Pacemaker
-
Bradycardia (slow heartbeat)
-
Heart block
-
Atrial fibrillation
-
Congestive heart failure (when used with CRT pacemakers)
Implants can last 5–15 years. But a defect can cause immediate harm.
Why Pacemakers Get Recalled
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) monitors all medical devices. When a pacemaker shows signs of failure, the FDA may issue a recall.
Manufacturers may also issue a voluntary recall when they discover safety risks.
Common Pacemaker Defects
-
Battery failure or premature depletion
-
Short-circuiting inside the pulse generator
-
Wire fractures or lead dislodgement
-
Software glitches or communication loss with monitoring systems
-
Improper voltage delivery to the heart
-
Failure to alert patients to malfunction
Common Defective Pacemaker Injuries
-
Sudden fainting
-
Irregular heartbeat
-
Heart failure
-
Organ failure
-
Stroke
-
Cardiac arrest
-
Death
Many defects remain undetected until serious injury occurs. Some devices fail silently.
