Product Liability

Product Liability Lawyer Chicago

A dangerous or defective product can injure or kill unexpectedly. We reasonably expect the products we buy and use to be safe. Products with design or manufacturing defects make them unreasonably dangerous. The consequences of a defective product can be devastating. When these products cause injury, the manufacturers and sellers are responsible to pay compensation for the harms and losses the product has caused. This includes compensation for medical costs and lost income, physical disability, pain and suffering.

Product liability law requires that the products that we buy from manufacturers and sellers are safe, and suitable for the purpose for which they were intended. This area of the law encompasses many different types of products, from large industrial equipment, to automobiles, trucks, medical devices, and even household items like smoke detectors, or a toaster. Your product liability lawyer Chicago must have a clear understanding of the current state of law and access to engineering and design experts, to enforce your rights against the large corporations that sell these products and their insurance companies. You can trust in the trial attorneys at Vinkler Law.

Types of Injuries Caused by Products

Injuries from products can vary widely, depending on the nature of the product and the circumstances of its use. These can range from birth injuries, which may occur due to defective medical devices or pharmaceuticals used during childbirth, to accidental injuries, which may stem from everyday items such as electronics, toys, or appliances malfunctioning. These incidents can lead to serious health issues, including physical impairments, and often require legal intervention to address potential negligence or product liability claims.
