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.

St. Jude Eon / Eon Mini patients reporting shocks, lead migration, battery failures, or revision surgery may qualify for the Abbott spinal cord stimulator litigation. Legacy St. Jude Eon and Eon Mini systems — now Abbott’s responsibility — generated roughly 18,000 FDA reports, with battery failures prominent, including a historical charging-burn recall family (2010–2013). Eon patients often had devices replaced by newer Abbott systems after failures.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is there a St. Jude Eon / Eon Mini lawsuit?
St. Jude Eon / Eon Mini devices are part of the litigation against Abbott. Individual qualification depends on your injuries and dates — the review is free.
Is the St. Jude Eon / Eon Mini recalled?
No Class I recall covers this model as of September 2026 — but recalls are only one path; most qualifying cases involve unrecalled devices.
What if I’m not sure this is my model?
The ID card, charger, app, or operative report answers it — we do this for you at no charge.

What Eon Mini problems qualify for the lawsuit?

Reported problems include unexpected shocks, lead migration, and battery failure. If you experienced one of these with your Eon or Eon Mini device, it may qualify for the active litigation against Abbott. Every claim is still evaluated and proven on its own facts, since no settlement exists yet.

How much time do I have to file an Eon Mini claim?

Filing deadlines vary by state — some as short as one year, so having your case reviewed sooner rather than later matters. Waiting can permanently bar a claim, even one involving Abbott device shocks, lead migration, or battery failure, so do not delay reaching out.
