In the U.S., when a consumer buys a product and uses that product for its intended purpose, that product should be safe to use. If you get hurt by a product, you have the right to bring a product liability suit against that product’s seller, manufacturer, or designer, depending on what caused the injury.
When you obtain counsel from the Sholes & Miller Law Firm in a product liability lawsuit, you can be assured that you will receive representation from extremely experienced attorneys.
Product liability involves personal injury or property damage litigation arising from alleged design and manufacturing defects, or information/warning deficiencies in products. Litigation can consist of individual cases arising from one-off injuries or be conducted through mass torts. Mass torts comprise class actions and/or multiple related individual cases brought by plaintiffs. Most cases within a mass tort do not usually go to trial as they tend to be resolved early through mediation or settlement.
