Injury Lawyers helping clients in Fort Lauderdale
You buy a product such as a new car, tires, an electric saw or a toy for your child, and you believe it will work and be safe to use. Although manufacturers put in place quality control measures and have a responsibility to produce functional and safe products, dangerous products harm people every year. Your rights as a consumer can be protected by obtaining an injury lawyer to help you stand up against large companies that have produced defective products. Our Ft Lauderdale injury attorneys at the Law Office of Steven Slootsky can guide you through the necessary legal steps in a product liability claim and fight to help you receive the compensation you deserve.
Underlying Sources of Product Liability
There are three main sources that underpin defective products, resulting in product liability:
- Design defects - flaws in engineering design (a car roof built from material that lacks the strength to withstand a rollover)
- Manufacturing defects - defects that occur during the production phase (an undetected crack in a car roof that causes the roof to buckle during a rollover)
- Marketing defects - lack of proper product labeling or faulty advertising claims about a product’s capabilities (failing to warn of the danger to pets or children, false claims that a product is safe for children or pets)
Examples of Products Involved in Product Liability Cases
- Car/truck tires
- Strollers
- Medical devices/equipment
- Children’s toys
- Playpens
- Pharmaceutical drugs
- Household appliances
Proving that a product is defective often requires technical experts to testify regarding design, manufacturing or marketing defects. At the Law Office of Steven Slootsky, we have experienced injury lawyers that have the legal know how and available resources to take on these types of cases. We will put forward every effort to see you awarded the maximum compensation entitled by law for your pain and suffering.
