Product Liability & Dangerous Products Injury Attorneys

If you've been injured by a defective product, you may be entitled to compensation.

The largest product manufacturers make billions of dollars in profits each year and have a responsibility to consumers to produce goods that don't pose dangers. When a product isn’t safe and using causes an injury, having a Kingston & Wilkes-Barre dangerous product lawyer on your side can make a big difference.

According to the law, a product is supposed to meet the ordinary expectations of consumers. If the product is defective or poses a danger in the course of normal use, it does not meet this legal requirement. Those who can be held liable include the manufacturer of the product, the manufacturer of the component parts, the wholesaler and the establishment that sold the product to you, the consumer.

Examples of product liability

When injuries occur as a result of a faulty product, it can be hard to identify the dangerous product as the source of the problem. Many people don't realize that they could be entitled to compensation from the manufacturer of a faulty product if they were injured or experienced some type of physical or financial damage. Examples of products liability can include:

• Faulty brakes You were in a car accident because the brakes malfunctioned.
• Faulty handlebars You crashed into a lane divider because the handlebars on your motorcycle locked up.
• Broken rungs You fell off a ladder because the rungs gave way.
• Defective surgical device You were the victim of medical malpractice because the surgical equipment was defective.
• Substandard cooking utensils You burned your hand because the handle of the pot fell off when you lifted it.
