Defective Products

Product Defect Lawyer

When companies create defective products or fail to warn consumers of product safety hazards, the attorneys at KO will hold the companies accountable. We represent people who have suffered serious injuries from product defects such as:

  • Cars and car components such as tires, seat belts, car seats, auto glass, air bags, and brakes
  • Over-the-counter and prescription drugs
  • Medical and rehabilitation devices
  • Food from grocery stores and restaurants
  • Cosmetics such as mascara, eyeliner and lipstick
  • Baby products such as strollers, feeding bottles and toys
  • Bicycles
  • Sporting goods
  • Power tools
  • Machinery

We also handle cases of wrongful death involving defective products.

Products may be defective because of flaws in its conceptual design, defects that occurred during manufacturing, or inadequate instructions or warnings of potential dangers. If you or a family member has been injured by a defective product, it's essential to preserve the product in the same state as when it caused the injury. Don't attempt to make any repairs. Our lawyers will work with product safety experts to analyze the product and how it caused your injury. Then we will file a personal injury lawsuit against the manufacturer, the supplier, and the retailer of the product.

Recently, our attorneys recovered the policy limits of $1,000,000.00 from a pharmacy for its failure to utilize childproof pill containers. Because of the pharmacy's negligence, a three year-old boy was able to open a container filled with prescription medication and ingest its entire contents. As a result, the boy suffered significant brain damage.

It often becomes a lonely road of recovery for people who have been injured by a defective product. Our lawyers will be there for you throughout the recovery process. We will make sure you are receiving the best medical care and treatment and that your doctors are attentive to your needs.
