Dedicated Los Angeles CA Personal Injury Attorney Will Prioritize Your Injury Case

Product liability is a broad area of California law that covers defects in a product’s design or manufacturing and how it is marketed to consumers. If a product’s design or defect leads to an injury, the victim may have the right to bring a case against the manufacturer or retailer to seek compensation. If a large group of consumers has been affected but without serious injuries, a class action lawsuit may be appropriate.

Product liability cases are notoriously complex as they require proving a product was defective and that the user was using the product according to manufacturer instructions. In many cases, manufacturers defend themselves against product liability cases by claiming improper use of the product or failure to follow instructions. If you have been hurt by a dangerous or defective product, an experienced product liability attorney in Los Angeles can help you understand your legal options and protect your rights.

Almost any type of product can be dangerous due to poor design, manufacturing defects, or insufficient instruction. The following are the most common types of dangerous products that lead to injuries:
