Product Defects

Consumers rely on safe and effective products. Whether it be cribs, carseats and toys, or cars, appliances and machinery, the American public depends on companies to design and manufacture its products with safety in mind. Unfortunately, terrible accidents do happen on occasion. When catastrophic accidents occur because of products that are improperly designed or constructed or, when a manufacturer fails to warn consumers about hidden dangers that could cause severe injuries or death, an attorney experienced in the nuance of product liability law is critical.

Product liability claims and lawsuits against manufacturers and retailers are difficult to maintain. To be successful in product liability lawsuits, experts in engineering or other specialized areas must be retained to testify about the defects in the design or construction of the product. Accordingly, when someone is injured by a product, it is important that they start pursuing their claim as soon as possible.

If we agree to handle your case, we will normally work on a contingent fee basis, which means we get paid for our services only if there is a monetary recovery. In almost all cases, a lawsuit must be filed within a certain amount of time from the date of the accident. If you intend to pursue a claim, you should contact an attorney right away to ensure that you do not waive your right to possible compensation.
