Injury Lawsuits Based on Defective Products

Companies that design and build products for industrial or consumer use have a strict legal responsibility to make sure those products are safe to use as intended.

Anytime a person is injured by a consumer or industrial product, it is a good idea to ask for an evaluation from an experienced products liability attorney. A lawyer who understands defective products can analyze whether the injured person may be entitled to financial compensation from the designer or manufacturer of the product.

Expert Analysis Is Critical in Defective Products Lawsuits

Defective products lawsuits can arise in many different contexts:

• Industrial machinery
• Construction equipment
• Children's toys
• Playground equipment
• Automobile products like seatbelts and airbags
• Consumer electronics
• Medical/pharmaceutical products
• Exercise equipment
• Swimming pools

In order to prove that the product designer or manufacturer is legally responsible for injuries caused by products like these, we must be able to show that: (1) the product was defectively designed, so as to make it dangerous; (2) a manufacturing error occurred, such that the specific product that caused the injury was defective; or (3) the company failed to provide sufficient warning to users about the product's potential danger.

Proving such statements requires assistance from experts in several different fields, depending on the type of product at issue. Our attorneys have developed a large network of experts, including product engineers and manufacturing experts. Their role is to search for evidence of design and manufacturing defects that will help our lawyers build a strong case on our client's behalf.
