Product Liability
When you purchase a car, child seat, toys for your kids, smoke detector, lawn mower, hot water heater, power tools, prescription drugs, or any other consumer product, you expect it to be safe. You expect and rely upon the manufacturer to ensure that its product has been thoroughly tested, properly designed, well made, and that it will be equipped with adequate warnings about any specific dangers. Unfortunately however, some companies place profits before safety-they cut corners, ignore problems, or simply rush a product to market to cash in on sales. This kind of unethical business practice can cause serious injury and even death to consumers and their families and may give rise to a product liability claim.
Product liability cases are often very complex, require the involvement of technical expert witnesses, and can be very costly to prosecute. You need an experienced, serious, and respected lawyer that is capable of standing toe to toe with the corporate giants of the world.
