Product Liability Lawyers – Edgar Law Firm
Defective consumer products in the United States are responsible for millions of personal injuries and wrongful deaths, according to the Consumer Products Safety Commission (CPSC). Although most consumer products – including auto parts, prescription drugs and medical devices – are manufactured with consumer safety in mind, some may be prone to malfunction due to flawed design, production errors or inadequate warnings, which may lead to devastating personal injuries or death. As dictated by strict product liability laws, in most cases the manufacturer is ultimately responsible for any harm as caused by a defective product. Therefore, victims of defective drugs or malfunctioning medical devices (such as pacemakers and DePuy hip implants) in Novato, Petaluma, Napa, Santa Rosa and throughout the Northern California region are often eligible to obtain damages from the manufacturer for their injuries, physical pain and emotional distress.
If you believe a defective product contributed to your personal injuries, a fatal illness or the death of a loved one, a talented Napa / Santa Rosa product liability attorney at Edgar Law Firm can help you pursue the liable party and obtain just compensation.
