It's an unfortunate fact that thousands of products sold in America cause harm or death to the people who use them. Each year, approximately 10,000 reports of injuries and deaths related to unsafe products flood the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission's office. Unfortunately, by their own admission, they lack the manpower to investigate each claim. Although financial rewards can never erase the injury or death caused by a defective product, consumers or their loved ones can seek monetary justice with the assistance of the team at The Masters Law Firm.
For more than 30 years, The Masters Law Firm, a West Virginia law firm, has been dedicated to helping injured parties recover not only the actual and projected financial losses related to defective products, but also substantial compensation for the pain and suffering of those affected. Listed in the distinguished Bar Register of Preeminent Lawyers, the Masters Law Firm also holds the highest rating available from Martindale-Hubbell®.
When filing a defective product lawsuit, The Masters Law Firm will assist you in determining whether the damage may have been caused by a faulty design, an error in the manufacturing process, or a lack of proper warning. Your defective product lawyer will go over these aspects with you in more detail, but as an overview, consider the following:
Design
Numerous products, while manufactured "properly" according to design, contain weak stress points or other inherent flaws present in the design itself.
Manufacturing
Many product liability cases stem from manufacturing problems, which occur at the plant and can be caused by anything from a lax employee to a machine malfunction, or a combination of multiple factors.
Lack of warning
Products must include clear information regarding their use and potential risks. This can include, for example, risks of shock from electrical components, instructions to avoid tipping of furniture and appliances, and a host of other safety-related alerts.
Product liability cases are prevalent in the courts, and for good reason: companies have a responsibility to ensure their products will not harm or kill the people who use them. When such outfits fail to live up to that responsibility, a skilled defective product lawyer will see to it that those injured, and/or their loved ones, receive appropriate compensation. The Masters Law Firm is a formidable and esteemed West Virginia law firm specializing in such cases and in adeptly managing all aspects of a defective product lawsuit.
