Products Liability - Defective Products
When a birth injury occurs it is a heartbreaking time for the parents. When you buy a product such as a stroller or space heater, the last thing you expect is for it to cause an injury to you or a family member. Safety and reliability are important concerns in all products, from prescription drugs to tires to lawn mowers. Whether it’s an expensive reputable brand or a budget line, the same rules apply: design and quality standards must ensure safety.
Unfortunately corporations that design, manufacture, and market the products we use do not always have their eyes on consumers’ well being. Sometimes they put profits before safety. By doing so, they are likely to produce products that are dangerous and unsafe, thereby unfairly placing the trusting consumer in harm’s way. If a defective product has injured you or a loved one, contact an attorney at Williams, Caponi & Associates P.C. to protect your legal rights.
