IVC Filter Case

To be honest I didn't know that the IVC filter that I had inserted in 2010 was defective. I had it inserted after a double pulmonary embolism after a hysterectomy. I never really thought anymore about it after the initial insertion. I received a call from the Sarangi Law Firm in the summer of 201...6 asking me a few questions about my filter and during our conversation I was told that my filter was in fact one that has been causing great health issues, and in some cases death. Fareesh suggested that I have a CT Scan with contrast to make sure that my filter had not moved or broke. I was completely unaware that there was anything wrong and I was shocked that I hadn't received any notice from my doctor, or the radiologist who did my surgery. I didn't immediately look into the issue, as a matter of fact almost a year later I had put it off... June 2017 I received another call from Fareesh. He was concerned that I had not gotten the scan and emphasised that research was showing that the longer the filter is in that the risk of failure of the device goes up as many as 40% or more are failing. I scheduled an appointment immediately after the call. My appointment was with the original pulmonologist who had been involved in the placement of my filter, and he contacted the radiologist that inserted it. They both said I needed to have the filter taken out immediately. I agreed but wanted to have the CT Scan to see if the filter had migrated, or if there was any issues or changes from the original placement. Upon reviewing my CT it was discovered that the filter had in fact penetrated my vena cava vein, and one of the legs of the filter was in my small intestine. I was shocked. I had no symptoms, and I could not believe it. I was immediately scheduled for surgery to remove the filter. After reading many reviews of patients getting filters removed I was very apprehensive knowing that the filters were breaking apart during removal, and some could not be removed because of scar tissue. My procedure went well, the filter did come out intact after over and hour of trying to get in un stuck. I would just like to say thank you to Fareesh for reaching out to me. I keep thinking about the fact that if I hadn't have answered the phone that day I would still not know about the IVC Filter issue. He very well may have saved my life. If you are dealing with a medical issue that may involve a defective medical device, or a wrongful death. You need to work with someone who cares. Fareesh is a sincere, honest person who wants to see you well, and treated justly. I know that we are just in the beginning of my case but I am thankful for all that he has done so far. Give him a call. It may save your life.

Best Lawyer Ever

He was so on point and knowledable about everything. He showed no fear when the insurance company did not bend in our direction. He got the results/ more that I imagined!!! He was the best lawyer for the job!!!

Honest and extremely effective

I was issued a citation in an auto accident while visiting in Atlanta. I contacted Fareesh after shopping around for lawyers and posting my inquiry on Avvo. Facing points on my license, court fees and penalties, a return trip to Atlanta and increased premiums, I decided I wanted to fight the citati...on. Fareesh told me he would be able to handle my case in Atlanta without me having to drive back down, secure a full dismissal and do it all for a very reasonable price. He was 100% correct. Charges were dismissed, no court fees or fines, and no return trip to Atlanta. Fareesh was very easy to get in touch with whenever I had any questions and he was an extremely effective attorney. I could not be happier with results of my case! Would recommend for any legal issue - the guy knows his stuff.
