Product
liability laws exist to protect the public from
defective products, and to ensure that where people
are injured by such products, they are adequately
compensated for their injuries. In Miami, the
product liability attorneys at Neufeld, Kleinberg
and Pinkiert are among the very best in this highly
specialized field.
The
types of cases handled my product liability
attorneys in Miami
Broadly
speaking, product liability cases fall under three
categories:
-
Design Defects. Such products were defective in
their very design, before even being
manufactured.
-
Manufacturing Defects. Such products are of
sound design, but were improperly manufactured
or constructed, resulting in faulty operation.
-
Marketing Defects. Such products fail to include
proper instructions for safe use, or fail to
warn users of latent dangers.
A good
Miami product liability attorney will have
experience in all categories of defective products.
He or she will also appreciate that product
liability covers a wide range of products,
including:
-
Tangible Products (e.g. cars, furniture, safety
devices)
-
Intangible Products (e.g. airborne asbestos,
gasses and chemicals)
-
Living things (plants and animals)
-
Real Estate (i.e. land, houses and buildings)
-
Writings (e.g. maps, charts, instructional
guides)
Many
individuals or companies may be liable for defective
products. As your Miami product liability attorney
can advise you, manufacturers are often the first to
be held liable for damages caused by defective
products. But in many cases, everyone involved in
selling the product can be held liable: all
distributors, wholesalers and retailers.
Even if
a product was not made in the United States – and
even if nobody selling it was aware of its defects –
you may still be entitled to compensation. So if
you’ve been injured by a defective product, never
assume that you aren’t eligible for compensation.
