Products Liability: Have you been seriously injured by a defective and unreasonably dangerous product? The question we ask is, "If this product had been properly designed, manufactured and labeled, then could the injury have been prevented?" Any risk of serious injury or death is unreasonable and unacceptable if the risk could have been eliminated by reasonable accident prevention methods.
The value of your case: Depends upon how you were injured and whether you contributed to the injury. Generally, product liability cases are tough to fight. Scientific and mechanical expertise is required of the lawyer to understand the issues of the claim. As an engineer and a lawyer, T.O. Sanders is well-qualified.
Specific Defective Products: Products liability actions can be brought on all kinds of consumer goods such as motor vehicles, motor vehicle parts, tires, ladders, hospital beds and exploding gas cans. Those red, plastic Blitz USA gas cans can explode if held near an open flame. Experts say that a simple, wire mesh flame arrestor could make every gas can safe. Flame arrestors could be installed by the manufacturers for less than 25ยข each. Without a flame arrestor, a flame can travel into the gas can causing a bomb-like explosion. The explosion can shoot flaming gas in every direction causing catastrophic burns to those nearby. Dan Rather has reported on this on his blog.
Preserving Evidence: Save the relevant evidence. It may be essential for building your claim.
Our objective: 1) to maximize your recovery; and 2) to provide designers, manufacturers and distributors with an incentive to prevent future injury.
