Dangerous Products & Defective Drugs

Holding Manufacturers Responsible for Dangerous Products

If a product causes serious harm to a consumer, it might not be the consumer’s fault. A wide range of dangerous and defective products can cause serious injuries and fatalities.

If you were injured by a dangerous product, the attorneys of the Foshee & Yaffe may be able to help you obtain financial compensation for damages. Our lawyers represent clients who have been harmed by a broad range of dangerous products at home and on the job, including:

Power tools
Home appliances
Dangerous drugs and pharmaceutical devices
Auto defects, including defective seat belts, air bags, seat backs, tires, gas tanks and more
Products for children, including clothing, cribs, car seats and toys containing lead
Industrial machinery
Construction or farm equipment

Types of Product Defects

Products can be defective in a number of ways. A design defect may have been present from the earliest stages of product development. A flaw could have been introduced in the manufacturing process. Or the product could have been mislabeled or the subject of false advertising claims.

We represented a woman who was operating a piece of machinery. The manufacturer did not have adequate safety mechanisms in place and her hair got caught in the machine, causing significant injuries. We were able to prove, through our investigation and hiring of experts, that the safety mechanisms were inadequate, and recovered a large confidential settlement from the defendants.

Product liability law allows people injured by defective products to seek compensation from everyone involved in creating and selling the product, including the manufacturer, distributor and retailer.

Our attorneys will study the specifics of your case and determine whether you may be eligible to recover financial compensation in a personal injury claim. There is no charge and no risk to learn if we can help.
