When you buy something, you should be able to assume it works as intended and is safe. But what happens when companies cut corners, mislead, fail to warn of dangers associated with the product, or simply put a defective product into commerce?
People get hurt. The injured deserve justice.
Maybe a lithium battery catches fire in your EV, or a tire blows out on the highway and sends you spinning across the Turnpike, or your airbag malfunctions. Maybe a power tool malfunctions in your garage, a vape pen explodes, you're sold defective fuel in Miami, or you are not properly warned about the dangers of a household product in Lee County.
One second, you’re living your normal life, the next, you’re dealing with the fallout of a serious injury: pain, medical bills, calls from the insurance company, and so many questions about the future.
Most people don’t realize how many hands touch a product before it reaches them. A mistake in design, manufacturing, or labeling anywhere along the way can lead to devastating results. When that happens, you have the right to hold those responsible accountable.
