PRODUCT LIABILITY

If you were using a product exactly the way you should but got injured from an unknown issue or danger, knowing what to do next can be scary. You’re likely angry and worried. You have medical bills piling up, you may not be able to work, and you don’t know where to turn.

Our product liability lawyers have seen people just like you hurting due to the direct actions of irresponsible manufacturers. We’re ready to fight for justice for you and work hard for the compensation you deserve.

There are three general types of claims that are filed for product liability cases:

• Manufacturing defect claims — These types of claims involve situations where the product carries a flaw that occurred during manufacturing. In these kinds of claims, a specific product doesn’t match others of the same type due to, for example, a quality control issue.
• Failure to warn claims — Products are required under the law to include full documentation of safety risks. This means that, if there is a danger in using a product, manufacturers or vendors are required to warn users. If they don’t provide a warning, they can be held liable for any injuries their products cause.
• Design defect claims — Designers and manufacturers have a responsibility to produce well-designed products. Defective design claims involve issues where the actual design of the product is inherently dangerous to users, even when it’s manufactured or used properly.
