Santa Clarita Accident & Injury Lawyers

Dangerous Products

Every day across the United States, thousands of people are injured or killed by using a dangerous or defective product.  Product manufacturers, sellers, and distributors have a responsibility under Federal Law to provide safe products for consumers.  When a consumer purchases a product, they are supposed to do so with the trust and knowledge that the product is safe to use.  As many unfortunate individuals discover, this is not always the case and serious injuries and even death can result from using a product that turned out to be defective or dangerous. 

If you or a loved one has been injured or killed because you purchased a product that was defective, you should speak with a Santa Clarita personal injury attorney at our firm.  Our lawyers are familiar with product liability laws and know how to effectively apply these laws to your personal injury or wrongful death suit.  As long as the product was not significantly altered from its original state and it was used the way it was intended to be used, product liability action may be taken.  A manufacturer or supplier may be held liable for damages if their product causes injury to someone if any of these three defects are present:

• Design Defects:  Present in a product before it was manufactured; something in the design of the product is inherently unsafe. 
• Manufacturing Defects:  Occurring in the course of a product’s manufacture or assembly.
• Marketing Defects:  Flaws in the way a product is marketed, such as improper labeling, insufficient instructions, or inadequate safety warnings.
