Product Liability Lawyer​

Manufacturers, distributors, retailers, suppliers, and others who sell products to consumers are responsible for injuries, illnesses, or deaths caused by their products.

Harm to a consumer from a product can be caused by:

• Failure to warn.
• Improper labeling.
• Manufacturing defects.
• Design flaws.
• Contamination.
• Unknown side effects.
• Marketing misrepresentation.

Some of the most common types of products that can cause consumers harm because of a defect, mislabeling, or contaminant include the following:

• Motor vehicles.
• Children’s toys, clothing, and furniture.
• Prescription medications.
• Over-the-counter drugs.
• Medical devices.
• Food and beverages.

Some of the most frequently occurring consequences of dangerous products include choking, brain injury, lacerations, organ failure, spinal cord injury, drowning, burns, heart attack, foodborne illness, and stroke. The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) monitor consumer incident reports and initiate recalls when products are identified as potentially hazardous.
