Defective Products

When you buy something, you have the right to assume it is safe when used as instructed. If the product fails to live up to this standard by hurting you or a member of your family, you can take legal action against the manufacturer who put your safety at risk by releasing a defective product. At Richard E. Lewis, we can provide you with a Spokane injury attorney who can help you seek out the damages you are entitled to for your suffering.

There are three main types of product defects, those that occur in the design room, those that occur on the manufacturing floor and those that are a result of negligence on the part of the marketing team. If a product is defective by design, like a collapsible crib, it is subject to a design flaw. When a part of the design is ignored in manufacturing, making the product unsafe, it becomes a manufacturing error. If the product is normally safe, unless used in a specific way, the marketing team must include instructions and warnings regarding the proper use of the product. When they neglect to include instructions that could prevent injuries, the problem is a marketing error. No matter what type of error you have experienced though, you are entitled to compensation and a Spokane injury lawyer can help.

Injuries that result from product defects will vary drastically based on the type of item and the defect, but burn injuries, brain trauma, spinal cord damage and similar serious injuries are common. When you or a loved one has experienced any type of injury due to a defective product, a Spokane injury attorney can help you claim compensation for your pain, suffering, medical expenses, lost wages and more.

If you or a loved one has been injured or killed by a defective product, we can help. Please call our offices today and schedule a free initial consultation with a top Spokane injury lawyer.
