I have a greenfield filter in it was put in back in september 2005 i found out that i had it a year ago and last week 2 doc said it needs to come out

It sounds like you have more of a medical question then a legal question.  Questions about the propriety of removing the Greenfield filter should be directed to your doctors.  If you think that you may have a products liability case against the manufacture of the filter then he should consult a products liability attorney.  You may have a statute of limitations problem but if you truly did not know that the filter was inserted until last year you may have an argument that the statute of limitations should be tolled. If they do remove the filter, make sure that you instruct them that you would like to preserve it. If you do want to investigate a case further, you should contact a local personal injury attorney (one in your state).  Personal injury attorneys take  cases on a contingency basis which means you only have to pay if you succeed.  Additionally, initial consultations are free. You can use the "Find a Lawyer" service through this website to research personal injury attorneys. Then, visit each attorney's website and select a firm that has a record of successful verdicts.

I will do nothing further to protect or preserve your interests in the absence of any additional discussion with you about this matter. John Ratkowitz, Esq.
