HAVE YOUR SUFFERED DUE TO A DEFECTIVE PRODUCT? WE CAN HELP!
PRODUCT LIABILITY ATTORNEY
Defective products can put consumers at significant danger of suffering horrific consequences. Catastrophic injuries such as spinal cord trauma, brain injury, amputations, burns, and wrongful death are just a few examples of those consequences. If a victim experiences a catastrophic injury due to a defective product, they are entitled to file a product liability suit in court. Both state and federal laws can apply to product liability cases, making it important that your lawyer know and understand the best place to file a lawsuit, especially if a manufacturer operates in a number of different states.
Sam Salhab has the experience and resources to handle your products liability case. When a consumer sustains an injury due to a defective product, several parties can be held liable for releasing a product that they knew or should have known was dangerous. Sam can study the circumstances surrounding your product injury, and help you collect compensation if your injury warrants it.
Product Liability claims can be classified under one of three (3) basic categories:
-
Defective Design – At times, even well-manufactured products can be defective if the product’s design is flawed. In a products liability case, a plaintiff can only establish a design defect exists when he proves there is a hypothetical alternative design that would be safer than the original design, as economically feasible as the original design, and as practical as the original design, retaining the primary purpose behind the original design despite the changes made. This extends to prescription drugs, medical devices such as implants and surgical meshes.
-
Manufacturing Defect – Errors in the manufacturing process that alters a product from its intended design can create dangerous products that can harm consumers. Included here would be dangerous products such as defective airbags or construction defects.
-
Defective Marketing - Manufacturers are required by law to adequately warn their consumers about the various risks of using a product along with providing safe instructions for product use.
If you or someone you know has been injured by a defective product, you may be entitled to substantial compensation. The Law Office of Sam Salhab has a successful history of litigating product liability cases and recovering compensation for their clients. Contact us today for a Free case evaluation!
