Parker Waichman LLP Backs Exactech Trustee in Delaware Legal Findings

Parker Waichman LLP, a prominent plaintiffs' law firm based in Port Washington, New York, is lending its unwavering support to a newly filed lawsuit by the Exactech Litigation Trust. The suit, lodged on February 5, 2026, in Delaware's Court of Chancery, primarily targets the private equity firm TPG Inc. The complaint alleges serious wrongdoing related to various orthopedic implants manufactured by Exactech, which have reportedly caused harm to numerous patients.

According to the allegations, TPG, along with other entities, played a central role in concealing known defects of Exactech's orthopedic devices—specifically knee, hip, and ankle implants—while deliberately postponing necessary recalls. This strategic delay and the subsequent filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy appear to be efforts aimed at limiting their liability for a burgeoning wave of injury claims from affected patients.

With thousands of patients now regarded as unsecured creditors in the ongoing Exactech bankruptcy proceedings, the repercussions of these alleged actions have been severe. Many of these patients are grappling with both significant medical and financial difficulties that arose from the recalled devices, which have caused a range of complications requiring critical revision surgeries.

The suit outlines how TPG's majority control over Exactech impacted the company's governance structure, prioritizing their interests over the safety of the patients who depended on these orthopedic devices. As Jason Goldstein, Senior Litigation Counsel at Parker Waichman LLP, aptly states, “The Trustee’s complaint aligns with the long-held grievances of harmed patients, indicating that corporate decisions resulted in delayed recalls, exacerbating the injuries suffered by users.”

The legal action seeks to hold TPG accountable and recover value that should benefit the creditors, many of whom are patients enduring the repercussions of using defective products. Some have had to undergo multiple painful revision surgeries and continue to cope with life-altering injuries. Parker Waichman stands firmly alongside the Trustee, advocating that TPG operated essentially as an alter ego of Exactech, manipulating pivotal operational, regulatory, and litigation decisions.

The firm reiterates the need for a thorough examination of these claims to ensure fairness for the unsecured creditors affected by the deficient medical devices. Their commitment to advocating for the rights of Exactech implant recipients will remain steadfast as the bankruptcy process unfolds, alongside related legal proceedings.
