Consumer and industrial products are required by law to be safe for their intended purpose, as well as any reasonable foreseeable uses. When a product is inherently unsafe it must have warnings indicating the dangers associated with the product. Power tools are an example of inherently unsafe product. Products liability cases tend to involve one of the following issues:

• Manufacturing defect — These are defects that result directly from processes, materials, or workmanship during the manufacture of the product.
• Design defect — This occurs when bad product design leads directly to the injuries caused by the product.
• Marketing Defects — Defects in marketing involve, manufacturers, distributors, and retailers selling a product for a purpose other than what it was designed to do. This often involves products that are safe for their intended purpose.
• Failure to Warn and Failure to Guard — When a product is inherently dangerous manufacturers have an obligation to warn users of the dangers and do everything reasonable to guard against possible injuries.

Injuries caused by dangerous and defective products are often serious. Severe burns, chemical burns, amputations, and eye injuries are not uncommon. Product liability cases involving wrongful death claims can also arise with cases involving industrial products.

Our attorneys each bring more than ten years of dedicated personal injury experience to products liability cases. Whether through a settlement or a trial, we are prepared to help optimize the compensation our clients receive for their injuries.
