Product Liability Cases

8/28/2020

0 Comments

 
​Products liability cases are among the most difficult claims. Timely and extensive research is often required to establish defect in a product. This defect could have resulted from a mistake in design, making, labeling, and even packaging. Defective products could vary from tiny pills to airplanes and specific experts like engineers and doctors are often needed to prove a case.
The following are a few examples of commonly defected products:

Aircrafts
Automobiles
All Terrain Vehicles (ATV)
Power Tools
Playground Equipment
Medical Devices
Heavy Equipment
Lead Paint
Toys
Harmful Drugs

In these cases, victims can expect to receive compensation for some or all of the following: 
  • Medical expenses
  • Lost wages 
  • Reduced quality of life 
  • Pain and suffering

Our product liability lawyers have years of experience with multiple types of product liability cases and can help you receive the compensation you deserve.  Whether it’s a faulty airbag, an explosive e-cigarette, or inadequate earplugs, sometimes products do fail, and cause harm.

Millions of patients have been prescribed Elmiron in order to treat their interstitial cystitis (IC), otherwise known as painful bladder syndrome. But there is now reason to believe that this drug may cause an eye condition or blindness.
