Defective & Dangerous Products
Any product - be it a car, toy, over-the-counter medication, or consumer appliance - can cause serious injury or death when determined that a defect can be traced to the design or manufacturing process.
One recent successful case was brought for the family of a garbage truck driver whose vehicle crushed him due to defective wiring in a safety mechanism that was supposed to prevent the engine from revving when the garbage packer was engaged while the vehicle was in gear.
A confidential settlement was reached that provided substantial benefits for the victim’s two children.
