Pursuing Accountability for Defective Products

In an attempt to maximize production and profit, many corporations have cut corners and placed defective products on the market. We represent clients in all aspects of product liability litigation and strive to hold every responsible party fully liable — including negligent manufacturers and distributors.

Defective product lawsuits often stem from:

• Design defects: Minimal time and expense are put into testing and quality control, resulting in negligent product designs that should have been improved for safety reasons.
• Mechanical defects: In other industries, designs are immaculate. However, costs are cut when it comes to the actual parts used. Inadequate parts can cause the entire product to fail or become dangerous. For example, a defective switch on machinery or a power tool can cause the equipment to fail and the operator to lose a finger, hand or worse.
• Manufacturing defects: Negligence in the manufacturing process can also result in serious injuries. Parts may be missing or installed improperly resulting in a defective or dangerous product.

Please note, product liability lawsuits may also be pursued if there was an inadequate warning of the dangers posed by the product.

Our personal injury attorneys represent accident victims and their families in product liability claims involving a vast array of dangerous or defective products, including defective car parts (tires, brakes, airbags, sticky accelerators and other defective auto parts), defective or dangerous tools, dangerous construction equipment and all other dangerous products.
