Product Defects Claims
Any product can be defective, but those products you use daily at home and at work – automobiles, tires, seatbelts, cribs, playards, mattresses, prescription drugs, heating systems and appliances, electricity, industrial machines, heavy equipment all pose particular risks because of the unexpected nature of their defects. Many consumers buy products and often take their safety for granted, because we often do not appreciate the risk they may pose. Given the wide range and volume of consumer products whose danger is not always apparent, we cannot always assume that a product will be safe for consumers to use even under normal use. Defective products can injure users and bystanders.
Our Product Defect Practice Area is dedicated to representing individuals who have been injured or suffered losses due to defective products. We understand the complexities involved in product liability cases and are committed to holding manufacturers, distributors, and retailers accountable for their negligence. Our goal is to secure the compensation our clients deserve while ensuring that unsafe products are removed from the market.
We handle a wide range of product defect cases, including:
- Design Defects: Cases where a product’s design is inherently dangerous or flawed, making it unsafe for use.
- Manufacturing Defects: Situations where a product becomes dangerous due to errors in the manufacturing process.
- Marketing Defects (Failure to Warn): Cases involving inadequate instructions, warnings, or labeling that fail to inform consumers of potential risks.
- Consumer Goods: Defects in everyday products such as electronics, appliances, and children's products.
- Medical Devices: Cases involving defective medical equipment, implants, or devices that cause injury or harm.
- Pharmaceuticals: Claims related to dangerous or defective drugs that have adverse side effects or insufficient warnings.
- Automotive Defects: Defects in cars, motorcycles, or other vehicles, including faulty airbags, brakes, or ignition systems.
- Industrial Equipment: Defective machinery or equipment used in workplaces that pose risks to employees.
Our goal is to hold responsible parties accountable and secure the best possible outcomes for our clients, including:
- Compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering
- Punitive damages in cases of gross negligence or misconduct
- Product recalls and improved safety standards to prevent future harm
- Support and resources for clients dealing with the aftermath of injury or loss
