Products Liability

Companies that make and sell products for public consumption have a duty to ensure that those products are safe for normal use. If a product was defectively designed or manufactured, resulting in injury or death, the designer or manufacturer can be held liable for the losses incurred by the victim or victims. A distributor can also be held liable for failing to adequately warn consumers about a foreseeable risk of harm associated with its product.

Someone injured by a defective product may be entitled to recover compensation for medical costs, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other damages. In the tragic event that a person loses his or her life as the result of a dangerously defective product, the victim's family may be able to recover significant damages, both economic and non-economic.
