Our product liability attorneys have successfully faced many big corporations
in the courtroom. Our focus is on making sure our clients obtain the
compensation they need and deserve when they have been harmed by a defective
household product.
- Product liability: Product liability refers to the
liability of a manufacturer, distributor, seller or other party in the chain
of distribution for injuries or damage caused by a defective product.
Product liability is usually a matter of strict liability. This means that
under product liability law, a manufacturer can be liable when it is shown
that the product is defective, whether or not the defect is due to
negligence.
- Defective household products: Defective products can be
voluntarily recalled by the manufacturer or they can be subject to a recall
by the United States Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC).
- Recent product recalls: For a complete list of
household product recalls, see the
CPSC Web site. Products known to have caused
serious injury and, in some
cases,
wrongful death include: TV/VCR
carts that easily tipped over, dumping the contents on a child;
window air conditioners that were a fire hazard; electric
heaters with loose electrical connections that caused severe
electrical shocks.
Manufacturers, distributors and sellers are responsible for providing safe
products and for warning consumers of any dangers associated with their
products. If they fail to do that and if serious injury or wrongful death
results from their failure, they may be held liable for any and all losses.
Product liability can result from design defects, manufacturing defects,
incomplete or incorrect instructions on the product, failure to warn the
consumer, or a failure to live up to a product warranty.
From our offices across from the courthouse in downtown Brooklyn, we are
ready to hear the story of your injury, explain your options, and help you
decide what actions you should take. The consultation is free. At Bonina &
