About Product Liability
Producers of products have a responsibility to the consumer to provide a product which performs as expected and does not involve unknown danger. This means a car engine should run properly and not catch on fire easily. When turning a corner at a reasonable speed a car should not roll over. There must be a warning on the label of a household cleaning product to wear rubber gloves if it can burn skin. Yet each year tens of thousands of consumers are injured and thousands are killed by using products with unknown dangers. If you or a loved one has been seriously injured it is important to consult a St. Louis product liability attorney with expertise in product liability cases.

Product liability cases are on the rise. There is no effective way to prevent a manufacturer from producing a defective product. Therefore it has become the responsibility of the product liability lawyer to protect the public by holding manufacturers accountable. A manufacturer may be held legally responsible when the design of a product is flawed, an individual product deviates from the design, or there is a failure to inform the consumer of danger and injury results. Many product liability cases are caused by such items as:
- Dangerous drugs
- Appliances which catch fire
- Defective automobiles
- Defective automobile components
- Defective electronics
- Heavy equipment malfunctions
When a product is used as instructed and yet causes severe or catastrophic injuries the retailer, supplier, and the manufacturer may be held responsible for the victim's past and future medical expenses, pain and suffering, lost income and other related expenses.
