There are many reasons a product may be dangerous or defective. First, the product may be defectively designed in which case the entire product line may create a potential hazard to consumers. Second, the individual product may have a defect which occurred during manufacture in which case the product may cause injury to only one person. In addition, the product may not have had a warning label which adequately explained how consumers should properly use or handle the product.
What action should you take if you believe you or a family member has been injured by a defective product?
- Keep the product in a safe and secure location in the same condition it was in at the time of the accident. It is not unusual for a manufacturer to hunt down a product, buy it, and dispose of it so there will be no evidence through which you can prove your case.
- Look for and keep all documents related to the product including: packaging materials, instruction books, warranties, receipts, etc.
- Never give or return the product to the manufacturer, even if the manufacturer promises to return the product after examination or “testing”.
- Contact an experienced attorney, like the defective product lawyers at Allen and Allen, within hours or days after your injury. This can make the difference between winning and losing your product liability case.
