When you bring home a new product, whether it’s a toaster oven, lawn mower, highchair, or new car, you have an expectancy that the product will be safe and function as it is intended. Sadly, that’s not always the case and unsuspecting consumers get seriously injured. If you or a loved one has suffered from a Florida defective product injury, you may need a lawyer on your side to help you fight for your rights against those responsible for the defect and consequent injury. The Florida defective product injury lawyers with Steinger, Iscoe & Greene can help you through the legal process and will stand by your side.
About Product Liability
Product liability cases usually involve a lengthy list of responsible parties or companies, but there are typically three kinds of defective product cases:
-
Marketing defects—improperly warning the consumer of the product’s possible dangers (i.e., inadequate safety warnings or failure to include a comprehensive instruction manual)
-
Manufacturing defects—defects that occur in the process of making the product (i.e., a bolt that isn’t tightened properly at the factory and results in the leg of a baby chair falling off easily)
-
Design defects—defects that are inherent to the product’s conception (i.e., a swimming pool with holes in the bottom or an air conditioner that blows hot air)
In many defective product cases, the plaintiff must prove that the product in question is defective and unsafe, and the defective nature of the product caused injury. You need an experienced Florida defective product lawyer to help you win the money you deserve for your pain and suffering.
