Products Liability

The harmful effects of defective products do not discriminate based on age.  Adults and children alike are often injured by design flaws and defects in goods, including cars and other auto industry products, construction materials, appliances, children’s toys, cribs, car seats, drugs and other consumer products.  Manufacturers are responsible for designing and manufacturing safe products, and for warning of dangers such products can cause.  When manufacturers fail to meet either of these obligations, they can and should be held accountable for the harm they cause.
