Understanding What Makes a Product Legally Defective
There are several circumstances where vendors can be held responsible for product-related injuries in a personal injury claim. A product can be considered defective based on factors like:
- Design: The product is designed in a way that makes it unnecessarily dangerous.
- Manufacture: Mistakes are made during manufacturing make made the product more dangerous than it would normally be.
- Warning: Users of the product are not given adequate warning of the dangers of the product and what can be done to avoid them.
Attorney Jeffrey Silvia has been a trial advocate in California since 1985. He and our team are highly experienced at pursuing claims against all different types of parties—including manufacturers, distributors and retailers—on the basis of all of these theories.
Injured by a Machine at Work? Don't Settle for Workers' Comp.
Most of our firm's work in the area of defective products revolves around workplace machines and tools. These products can create serious dangers for employees, especially when they are not given adequate training and documentation by the vendors.
Usually, when you suffer a workplace injury, you are limited to workers' compensation. However, if someone other than your employer is responsible for your accident, you can pursue money damages from that person or company.
