Virginia Defective Product Attorneys

A product may be dangerous or defective for many reasons:

• the product may have a defective design, in which case the entire line of products may be hazardous to consumers
• the manufacturing process may have created individual defects in certain products, in which case the product may harm only a single person
• the product may lack a warning label that sufficiently explains the potential hazards and proper uses of the product.

If you or a family member has suffered a serious injury in an accident involving a defective product, call 866-388-1307 for a free consultation with Allen & Allen's defective products lawyers. We have offices conveniently located throughout Virginia in Richmond, Charlotttesville, Fredericksburg and Petersburg.

After an injury from a defective product, you should take the following steps to help protect your rights:

• Store the product in a safe and secure place so that it remains in the same condition it was in when the accident occurred. Manufacturers commonly seek out, purchase, and destroy the defective product so there will be no evidence with which to prove your case.
• Find and store all packaging materials, instruction booklets, warranties, invoices, receipts, and other paper work that pertain to the defective product.
• Do not allow the manufacturer to take back the product, even if they say they will return it after “testing” or “examination.”
• Call an experienced defective product attorney as quickly as possible after your injury. Making contact within hours or days can be the difference between winning and losing a defective product case.
