Protecting the Rights of Defective Product Victims

Have you been injured by a dangerous and faulty product? Defective products is a specific area of law that deals with accident cases where people are either injured or killed by a dangerous product that is either defective in its design or fabrication. If the manufacturer fails to put proper warnings regarding the use of the product or the warnings are misleading in any way and you are injured as a result, then you may have a right to pursue compensation. Due to the complexity of these cases, it is definitely in your best interest to have a Casa Grande personal injury lawyer at hand to help you prove the faulty engineering or design issues of the product.

Who is at fault?

There are many reasons that could cause a product to be defective and dangerous to the consumer. Many times, the root of the problem comes down to a design flaw, manufacturing defect, or lack of danger warnings. All of these causes could be considered negligence on the part of the designer, manufacturer, distributor and retailer. Any one of those entities can be considered responsible for the defect and can be held liable for any injuries that the product may cause.

When a product has a design flaw that means that way the product was created poses a danger to the user, such as having a circular saw without a retractable safety guard to cover the blade. On the other hand, when a product has a manufacturing defect it means that there is a problem with the way it was assembled or with the materials that were used. An example of this would be if a lawnmower was manufactured using a flimsy/inadequately installed blade cover. Another major issue that you find in defective products cases is a failure to warn of potential dangers. It is the responsibility of the distributor to ensure that all warnings regarding the use of the product are adequate and not misleading.

Recovering Compensation in Defective Product Cases

Did you know that out of all cases that go before a jury, 80% of them are defective product cases? The frequencies of these cases occur at an alarming rate and it is in unbelievable how many dangerous/defective products are put on the market. Manufacturers are supposed to immediately recall defective products, but that is not always the case. If you or a loved one has been injured or lost their life due to a product defect, then we can help you in seeking the fair compensation that you are legally entitled to.
