New York Defective Product Attorney
The manufacturer, distributor, and retail seller of a dangerous product may be responsible for injuries caused when that product makes it into the hands of a consumer and causes injury. It is not always necessary to show that the responsible parties knew the product was dangerous.
For over 20 years, White Plains product liability lawyer Daniel A. Kalish has been helping consumers recover compensation for injuries caused by defective or poorly designed equipment, toys, tools, and drugs. If you would like to speak with him about a possible claim, contact our law office and make arrangements for a free consultation.
To start suit before the statute of limitations expires and to give your lawyer the time to gather evidence and put on the strongest case possible, it is important you begin the process as soon as possible. Please keep the product without alteration, so it can be used as evidence.
- Defective scaffolding or power tools on a work-site may cause injuries covered by Workers’ Compensation, and may also entitle the victim to compensation from the product manufacturer.
- A motor vehicle accident caused by faulty equipment will often involve a No-Fault policy and a lawsuit against the manufacturer of the seat belt, defective tires, or other defective pieces of equipment.
- An assault resulting from defective security equipment, such as a broken entry buzzer, may involve both product liability and premises liability claims.
- Home appliances and equipment, including unguarded snow blowers and lawn mowers, and those without proper warning labels, can cause serious injuries, and in some cases, wrongful death.
- Dangerous pharmaceuticals such as Vioxx, Lipokinetix, and Lotronex may entitle users to compensation for heart failure or a liver or kidney damage claim, and medical device such as breast implants or pacemakers may fail.
- Food products without proper labeling and ingredient lists may cause allergic reactions, such as peanut allergic reactions.
