As experts in product liability, the personal injury attorneys of Proner & Proner work to defend the right of consumers who expect the goods they purchase to be free from dangerous defects. Based on studies conducted by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), defective products result in nearly 22,000 deaths and more than 29.5 million injuries each year in the United States. Product manufacturers have a responsibility to ensure that their products operate safely and effectively for consumers. At Proner & Proner, our product liability lawyers strive to hold manufacturers accountable when they fail to fulfill this obligation and a serious personal injury ensues.

Any given product - an appliance, a prescription drug, a hip replacement - may be found to be defective and rightfully the focus of a lawsuit. The product liability attorneys at Proner & Proner have extensive experience in handling such cases and can help you obtain the maximum allowable compensation for your injury.

What Is Product Liability?

A product liability claim can be filed against any or all parties involved in the creation or distribution of a product, as long as one or more of the following product defects can be shown to have contributed to an injury:

• Design Flaw : This type of defect is inherent in a product from the point of conception. In order to build a strong case around a design flaw, it must be possible to demonstrate that the product's designers failed to recognize or consider safer alternatives in the commission of an unreasonably dangerous product.
• Manufacturing Flaw : This type of defect occurs when a mistake is made during the manufacturing process of a product, causing the product to fail to operate safely. A defect of this type may affect only a few products in a production line, or it may affect all of the products.
• Insufficient Warning : If a product fails to sufficiently communicate the risk associated with its use, either by providing an inadequate warning label or none at all, it is considered to be a defective.
