PRODUCTS LIABILITY

There are a substantial number of deadly products that make their way into American homes each and every year.  The U.S. Consumer Products Safety Commission reports that  "deaths, injuries and property damage from consumer product incidents cost the nation more than $700 billion annually."

Products liability is an area of the law in which a consumer may seek and recover damages for injuries or death caused by defective and unreasonably dangerous products. A product may be defective if it is designed or manufactured in a manner such that it is unreasonably dangerous to the consumer.  A product can also be defective if the manufacturer fails to warn against unreasonable risks associated with use of the product that are not known by consumers.

Products liability cases require thorough investigation and discovery of facts along with a strong grasp of highly specialized technical information.  In each case the firm investigates the specific facts and circumstances relating to the failure of a particular product and is aggressive in obtaining all available information from the manufacturer of the product.  The firm has access to a wealth of technical and trade literature relating to numerous products and is able to carefully select the most qualified individuals as expert consultants and witnesses for trial.
