Defective Product Injuries and Your Rights
As the holidays are quickly approaching and gift giving and shopping in general increases, as do the number of defective and potentially unsafe products being purchased. While it may be a depressing thought that the gift you give a loved one could result in them being injured, it is important to know your rights and what may justify a product liability case.
There are multiple ways you can be injured from a product, whether from defective manufacturing or defective design. For example, exposure to a product’s ingredients could make you sick. You could also experience an injury from a product malfunctioning and causing physical harm. Regardless of the type of injury suffered, you may be eligible for compensation if there is proof that the product manufacturer was negligent. To determine negligence, it is important that you contact a Personal Injury Attorney that specializes in Product Liability cases. They will help you navigate this stressful time and work to get you the maximum compensation for any economic damages, pain and suffering.
Here are some common types of products that result in Product Liability Cases:
- Toys
- Electronics
- Motor vehicles
- Lawn equipment
- Home appliances
- Medical devices and implants
- Cleaning supplies
- Tools and equipment
- Food and beverages
