A product liability case involves injuries caused by a defective or unreasonably dangerous product.
Common defects include design flaws, manufacturing defects, and failure to provide adequate warnings or instructions.
Manufacturers, distributors, wholesalers, and retailers may all be held liable depending on how the defect occurred.
In many cases, liability can be established by showing the product was defective and caused injury, even without proving negligence.
Product liability claims often involve medical devices, pharmaceuticals, vehicles, household products, tools, and consumer goods.
Many cases settle through negotiation or mediation, but an experienced trial lawyer prepares every case for trial if needed.
