Product Liability

The product liability attorneys at Bailey Glasser have a successful track record of prosecuting product liability lawsuits on behalf of plaintiffs who have been harmed, injured or killed because of defective products. We know the law and we will investigate the incident to determine if a defective product was the cause of your injuries. We also have substantial experience defending certain product liability lawsuits.

Our hard work on behalf of our clients has resulted in our national rankings by Chambers & Partners, Best Law Firms in America, and more for our product liability skills. For a full list, please review the list below. 

Product liability cases can be based on theories of strict liability, negligence, breach of warranty, or misrepresentation. In some cases, plaintiffs may choose to plead all of these theories and then investigate to see which are the most appropriate to pursue at trial.

To recover damages under a theory of strict liability, for example, the plaintiff will need to prove with the assistance of a products liability lawyer that the product's condition was unreasonably dangerous, the dangerous condition existed when the product left the manufacturer’s control, and the plaintiff's injuries were caused by that condition. There are three main types of dangerous conditions or defects that can potentially give rise to liability. These include manufacturing defects, design defects, and marketing defects, also known as failures to warn.

If you successfully prove your case, you can potentially recover a wide range of compensatory damages, including medical bills, out-of-pocket expenses, the costs of future treatment, loss of income, mental anguish, and pain and suffering.

Your Family's Well-being Matters

If your family has been affected by a catastrophic personal injury, don't face this challenging situation alone. Please reach out to us today.

Time tip: We know that it takes time to recover from injuries, or the loss of a loved one. It is, however, important that you speak to a lawyer as soon as you can regarding your potential claim as there are deadlines (called “statutes of limitation”) that impact your ability to have your claim properly evaluated and filed. For example, in some states, an injured party must file a medical malpractice claim within two years of the date of the injury or death. There are limited exceptions, but they are not automatic and are ultimately subject to judicial discretion.
