Proving Product Liability Claims in Missouri and Illinois
St. Louis Product Liability Injury Lawsuit Attorney
Whenever we use a consumer product, we put our faith and our safety in the hands of manufacturers, packagers, and distributors. Fortunately, regulations and laws make most of the products we use safe. Sometimes, however, products such as automobile air bags and seat belts, medical devices, and home appliances are defectively manufactured, have an unsafe design, or are labeled incorrectly, leaving us vulnerable to injury and deadly accidents.
We make sure you understand how your decisions will affect your case
The Roberts Law Firm, P.C., is also involved in the area of defective product litigation. We have helped numerous families recover significant compensation for injuries or death caused by unsafe products. The lawyers of the Roberts Law Firm take all personal injury cases on a contingency basis, which means that our legal services cost you nothing unless we recover money through a fair settlement offer or a jury award by trial.
If we believe you have a viable case, we will schedule a no cost consultation about your defective product accident, where we will clearly explain how product liability laws apply to your injuries. We will also explain how contingency fees apply, and how your decision to settle out of court, or pursue a jury award will affect the final outcome of your case. If you hire us, you will have the professional and technical resources and experience of our entire law firm on your side.
Defective product lawsuits include:
- Car seat back defects
- Manufacturing and farm equipment injuries
- Seat belt failure
- Power tools
- Improper warning labels, instructions
- Home appliances
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is charged with studying the safety of medical devices and prescription drugs before allowing the products on the market. There is growing concern, however, that the FDA is bowing to pressure from large medical equipment manufacturers and pharmaceutical companies to allow questionable and even dangerous products and drugs to remain on the market even after their side effects are known.
Medical implants and prescription drugs have enabled many of us to live longer and healthier lives. But when companies are allowed to keep dangerous or questionable products on the market simply to increase their profits, then the legal system provides you a remedy. You have a right to seek damages from the defective product's manufacturers for the personal injuries caused to you or your loved ones, as well as to seek punitive damages.
