Every time you strap your children into their car seats or take a prescribed medication, you should have peace of mind knowing that the product is safe and will perform its intended purpose. Unfortunately, this is not always the case. Each year, thousands of people in the United States suffer product injuries from dangerous or defective products.
Defective Product Liability
Defective product liability is an area of law that involves the litigation of personal injury, wrongful death, and property damage claims on behalf of injury victims resulting from product design defects, manufacturing defects, or lack of adequate safety warnings. If a defective and/or unsafe product injures you, you may be entitled to compensation from the company that made the product, the store that sold you the product, or both. Our firm represents injured consumers in matters against both product manufacturers and sellers of defective and/or unsafe products and our trial lawyers have successfully prosecuted a wide variety of serious product liability cases on both the state and federal levels.
Three Types of Product Defects
Design Defect: the design is unreasonably dangerous
Manufacturing Defect: the product was safely designed but something went wrong during the manufacturing process
Warning Defect: the manufacturer failed to warn users of dangers arising from normal use
Many people fail to realize that there are local and federal laws from the Consumer Product Safety Commission that protect consumers against dangerous products and hold manufacturers liable for injuries caused by such goods. These regulations are generally known as product liability law. If you have been injured by a defective product, it is essential that you contact an experienced product liability lawyer who can help you determine your rights and represent you against large manufacturing companies.
Contact our skilled defective product attorneys if you or a loved one has been injured by:
- Defective car products including airbags, seatbelts, tires, or child car seats
- Pharmaceutical products
- Medical devices
- Children’s toys
- Household appliances
- Sporting goods including firearms, exercise equipment, helmets
What We Can Provide
In cases of malicious intent – such as situations where a company, retailer, or distributor knowingly markets defective products and such defects cause injuries, victims may be entitled to punitive damages in addition to compensatory damages through a product liability claim. Our personal injury attorneys can help determine which damages you are eligible for and can help you build an effective personal injury case through our personalized legal representation.
These injuries may be the result of a design defect, manufacturing error, or a marketing defect like inadequate labeling, insufficient safety instructions, disclaimers, or warnings.
Product liability law places the burden of proof on the injured party, meaning that he or she must present evidence showing a direct link between physical injuries and product defects. This causal relationship may be difficult to prove without an experienced legal team on your side.
Our law firm works closely with you every step of the way through your personal injury claim. Our legal advice guides you on the best course of action to help you or your family members obtain the compensation you deserve to help with medical expenses you incur while recovering from a serious injury. We have years of experience dealing with issues like insurance companies, the statute of limitations, and breach of warranty. We also collaborate with experienced engineers and design experts who can provide invaluable insight for your case and deliver expert testimony in a court of law during product liability lawsuits. When necessary, these resources afford us the ability to create a replica of the defective product to further strengthen your case.
You paid for the product, you should not be forced to pay for the harm it caused you or a loved one. If you’ve been injured as the result of a defective or dangerous product, call today for a free consultation with one of our experienced product liability attorneys.
