When you purchase a product, regardless of how expensive or inexpensive, the manufacturer of the product should have taken steps to ensure it met certain safety guidelines. Too many times, however, manufacturing companies will forego a small expense to create a better and safer product, and this ultimately results in someone being severely injured. Examples include defective design, hidden defects, failure to warn, malfunctions, toxic chemicals in products, etc. Specific examples include motorcycle helmets, bicycle helmets, seat belts, cooking hardware, packaged food, faulty medical devices, dangerous medications, etc.
In every state, a consumer is allowed to file a claim with a product manufacturer if they were injured by the product. The level of liability a manufacturer may have depends on many factors and requires a fact intensive investigation. If you believe that you have been injured because of a defective product, call us.
