Product Liability Litigation Attorneys

Understanding Product Liability Litigation

Product liability litigation arises when a defective product causes injury or damage. It’s a complex area of law, and determining liability – whether it lies with the manufacturer, distributor, or retailer – can be challenging. Our experienced attorneys are well-versed in navigating these complexities and protecting the rights of individuals harmed by faulty products.

What is Product Liability? Product liability law holds manufacturers, suppliers, distributors, and retailers responsible for injuries or damages caused by defective products. This liability can stem from several different issues:

• Design Defects: These occur when the product’s design itself is inherently dangerous, regardless of how it’s manufactured.
• Manufacturing Defects: These arise when a product deviates from its intended design during the manufacturing process, making it unsafe.
• Marketing Defects (Failure to Warn): This occurs when manufacturers fail to adequately warn consumers about potential dangers associated with a product’s use.

Types of Products Covered Product liability claims can involve a wide range of products, including:

• Medical devices
• Automotive parts
• Household appliances
• Toys and children’s products
• Pharmaceuticals
• Construction materials

The Legal Process A product liability lawsuit typically involves several key stages:

1. Investigation: We thoroughly investigate the incident, gathering evidence such as product labels, safety data sheets, and witness statements.
2. Establishing Liability: We work to demonstrate that the product was defective and that the defect caused your injuries. This often involves expert testimony from engineers or product safety specialists.
3. Damages Calculation: We pursue compensation for your losses, which can include medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and property damage.
4. Litigation & Settlement/Trial: We aggressively advocate for your rights through negotiation or, if necessary, trial.
