Defective Products

Each year, American consumers, both children and adults, are injured or killed by defective products that were purchased to make life more comfortable or productive.

When confronted with a report of actual harm caused to a consumer, these same manufacturers may try to manipulate the facts or hold the victim responsible in an effort to avoid liability for their own defective product. This puts a tremendous burden on the victim or the victim’s surviving family to prove the manufacturer’s wrongdoing and responsibility for damages.
