Rockford, IL Defective Product Injury Lawyers
Product Liability Attorneys Serving Winnebago County
When a consumer purchases a product, they have the right to expect that it will be functional, safe, and free from defects. This is a major reason many industries have an extensive regulatory approval process that must be completed before a product can be brought to market. Despite the regulations, many defective products come on the market each year, and their hazards are often not fully known until they have harmed numerous consumers. If you or a loved one has suffered an injury due to a defective product, it is important to speak with an experienced product liability attorney, so you understand your rights and options.
For more than 20 years, Mannarino & Brasfield, A Division of Schwartz Jambois, has successfully represented consumers injured by defective products in Rockford, Chicago, and throughout Illinois. Our attorneys have extensive experience in this area of the law, and we have a strong track record of success handling even the most complex personal injury cases. We routinely call on top national and international professionals as expert witnesses in these types of cases, and we have the skills, knowledge, and resources to ensure that those responsible for product defects are held fully accountable.
Defective Product Cases in Illinois
We handle a wide range of product liability cases. Some of our primary areas of focus include:
- Medical Devices: Manufacturers of medical devices develop numerous products each year to satisfy strong demand. Some, however, are flawed and enter the market before being fully tested. Defective medical devices can be lethal and lead to fully preventable fatalities.
- Defective Drugs: The pharmaceutical industry floods the market with new drugs each year. Many have saved and prolonged lives, but some have had severe (and often fatal) side effects. When a dangerous or defective drug comes to market, those responsible need to be held to account.
- Motor Vehicle Defects: Defectively designed vehicles and auto parts cause numerous injuries and fatalities each year. In many car accident cases, the manufacturer, distributor, dealer, or anyone else in the vehicle supply chain could be held liable.
Product liability cases differ from other types of personal injury cases. These are cases wherein a person is injured due to a defective product, rather than the negligent actions of an individual (or group of individuals). To be successful, you must prove that the product defect is the cause of injury or wrongful death.
