Product Liability


Product Liability

If you or a loved one has sustained an injury due to the use of an unsafe or defective product, contact Nassar Law today. Defective products/Products liability cases are extremely complicated because they generally involve multiple parties.

Products liability cases involve calling in experts and numerous witnesses to testify as to the nature of the defect, whether the manufacturer could have designed or manufactured a safer product, whether the warnings associated with the product were inadequate, as well as whether any potential known risks of injury existed.

Typically, we bring in expert witnesses to help prove that the product was defective or dangerous, either due to defective design, defective manufacturing, or insufficient warning labels.

 

When you sue a manufacturer or retailer for selling a defective or dangerous product, you must prove that the product was dangerous because of either a defective design or defective manufacturing. If you believe that you have suffered an injury because of using a defective or dangerous product, contact Nassar Law as soon as possible. You may be entitled to receive damages from either the manufacturer or, in some instances, the retailer or anyone within the chain of distribution who sold you the product.

Each state has specific laws limiting when an injured person must file an action to recover monetary damages for injuries. Failure to act in a timely manner could result in the loss of much needed compensation for you and your loved ones. As a knowledgeable and effective Product Liability Lawyer, Greg Nassar knows what it takes to successfully pursue a defective product case.
