Dangerous Products Overview

People injured when a product malfunctions or is designed in a dangerous fashion or have inadequate warnings may have a claim for damages if they suffer serious injury from the product. In other words, the manufacturer, distributor, and seller of a dangerous product can be legally liable to pay damages to persons injured by the product.

This legal theory of product liability can provide for recovery of financial damages for individuals and families that have suffered as a result of a dangerous product. Set forth below are examples of the types of products that have been the subject of product liability lawsuits:

It is important to have an experienced attorney represent you if you or a loved one have been injured or killed by a dangerous product. The scientific proof required in a courtroom to establish that the product is unreasonably dangerous is frequently technically difficult and usually expensive. In almost all cases, it is necessary for the attorney to hire a scientific expert with significant experience with that type of product to testify exactly what was wrong with the product.
