Our Defective Product Services
Our team takes a comprehensive approach to product defect cases. Initially, provide a consultation to understand the specifics of your case. During this stage, our team thoroughly evaluates your case, determining its strength and avenues for legal action. Following evaluation, we proceed with negotiations, where we confront the manufacturer or seller, and we attempt to settle the case out of court. Negotiation can, unfortunately, fail, leading to the next step, court representation. Our skilled attorneys advocate on your behalf in and out of the courtroom, working hard to get you the result you deserve.
While pursuing your product defect personal injury claim, we gather evidence, document injuries, and build a case to prove liability. Our team deftly navigates these steps, working to build a strong case for you.
Types of Product Defect Claims
Defective Design
Sometimes, a product has inherent flaws all the way back to the blueprint stage. All the products are made correctly, but there is something in their design that can cause injury. They can cause injuries even when used as intended.
For example, a children's toy might have sharp edges, leading to cuts. Similarly, a car model may have a propensity to flip over during sharp turns. These issues compromise safety and function, and all products in the line are unsafe.
What to Do If You Are Harmed by a Defective Product
If you suffer an injury from a defective product, take these steps immediately.
- Ensure your safety. Move away from potential hazards, and, if possible, keep the danger from spreading.
- Seek medical attention. Even if injuries seem minor, a healthcare professional can provide a thorough examination, and they may find injuries that have not yet produced symptoms.
- Keep all medical records and receipts related to your treatment. These documents are crucial for your case.
- Document everything about the incident. Take photos of your injuries and the defective product. Note the product's name, model, and where and when you bought it. Record your account of the injury while the details are fresh in your mind
- Contact our team. We are here to stand up for your rights and hold irresponsible manufacturers accountable for their actions.

He told me that he hadn't lost a trial in a long time and he didn't want mine to break the streak. I didn't either! We went to trial and he was in control of the courtroom. He was totally prepared. But I was still worried because the prosecutor was very good as well. Daniel was confident but honest. The jury really liked him. As you can tell, he won my case because I am here, writing this review. Thank you.Michael M.

Very caring individual. Daniel handled my divorce back in 1991 and is a very understanding and caring person who took care of my needs with patience and understanding. He is one of a very few of that special breed. Wish to God there were more like him. Thanks, Daniel.Jean M.
