Every spinal cord stimulator inquiry gets a personal review — and an honest answer either way, free and without obligation.
Claims target the device manufacturers — not your doctor. Some matters may be referred to other lawyers. No settlement has been reached, and most cases are in their earliest stages; every case must be proven on its own facts. Attorney Advertising.
Three different questions get mixed together here — separating them removes most of the confusion. Who can gather information and start the process? Anyone — no document required. Who can sign the retainer? The client, or their legally authorized representative. Who receives the money? The client or their estate, with court oversight where the law requires it.

Marin & Murphy Law Firm is currently accepting spinal cord stimulator cases. Free, confidential case reviews: (888) 348-2735, available 24/7.
Starting the process: anyone
No document is required to complete a case review, collect the device card, or talk to us on a loved one’s behalf. Families do this every day.
Signing: the client — or their authorized representative
If your loved one is mentally competent, they sign, even if you did everything else. If they cannot: a durable power of attorney with general or litigation authority typically suffices (we review the actual document, free, because POAs vary); a guardian or conservator appointed by a court can act within the order’s scope; for a deceased loved one, the estate’s personal representative signs — and if no estate is open, opening one is often straightforward.
Practical notes
A POA signed after incapacity generally isn’t valid — if capacity is declining, addressing the POA now preserves options. Spouses do not automatically have signing authority. Send us the POA or guardianship papers with the intake; the review costs nothing and settles the question in one pass.

Attorney Advertising. This page is general information, not legal advice, and does not create an attorney-client relationship — that relationship is formed only by a signed written agreement. The attorneys of Marin & Murphy Law Firm are licensed in Rhode Island, South Carolina, Connecticut, and Massachusetts. We evaluate potential claims nationwide; for matters arising in states where our attorneys are not admitted, we associate with or refer to locally licensed co-counsel and do not ourselves practice law in those jurisdictions. Submitting the contact form or contacting the firm does not create an attorney-client relationship. Representation is offered on a contingent-fee basis: no fee unless there is a recovery, though a client may be responsible for case costs and expenses. The statute of limitations may sharply limit the time to file a claim. Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome, and no outcome is guaranteed. Responsible attorney: Matthew T.
