Defective products can cause serious injuries, property damage, and even death. If you were injured in an accident that was caused by a dangerous or defective product, a product liability lawyer at the Moore Law Firm can help you hold the liable parties accountable and recover compensation for your losses.

Types of Cases Handled by Product liability attorneys

Product liability lawyers handle cases involving defective products, including but not limited to medical devices, power tools, electronic devices, and household products. Product liability claims can arise from manufacturing defects, design defects, marketing defects, breach of warranty, and strict liability.

Product liability lawyers have various duties when handling this type of case, including evaluating claims, investigating issues related to injury or damage caused by defective products, gathering evidence, representing clients in court, negotiating settlements outside the courtroom, and advising clients on legal options and potential outcomes.

Evaluating Claims

One of the first things a product liability lawyer at the Moore Law Firm will do is evaluate the claim to determine if it is in fact an unsafe, dangerous product. This involves reviewing medical records, witness statements, and other evidence to determine if there is sufficient evidence to pursue a claim or file a lawsuit.

Investigating Issues Related to Injury or Damage Caused by Defective Products

If you have a valid claim, the product liability lawyer will investigate the case to determine the cause of the injury or damage. This may involve reviewing manufacturing processes, product design, and product literature to identify potential defects or inadequate warnings.

Negotiating Settlements Outside the Courtroom

In many cases, product liability claims are settled outside of court. Your attorney will negotiate with the defendant’s insurance company or legal team to reach a settlement that compensates you for your losses.

Types of Product defects

There are several common precedents that have been established in previous cases involving defective products. These include manufacturing defects, design defects, marketing defects, breach of warranty, strict liability, and negligence.

Design defects

A product may have a design flaw that makes it dangerous to use. For example, a power tool may have a design flaw that causes the blade to break off during use, resulting in serious injury.

Manufacturing Defects

A manufacturing defect can occur when a product is not made according to its design specifications. For example, a car’s brake system may have a manufacturing defect that causes the brakes to fail, resulting in an accident.

Labeling Defects

A labeling defect occurs when a product’s warning labels or instructions are inadequate or incorrect.

Marketing Defects

These are defects that arise from a failure to warn or instruct consumers about potential dangers associated with the product.

Breach of Warranty

This is a violation of an express or implied warranty that the product will be safe for its intended use.

Types of Product liability Damages

If you file a defective product claim, there are a couple of types of damages that may be awarded: economic damages and non-economic damages.

Economic Damages

These are damages that compensate the injured party for financial losses, such as medical bills, property damage, and other damages, including:

Non-economic damages

These are damages that compensate the injured party for non-financial losses, such as:
