New York Chemical and Drug Attorneys
Every year, thousands of consumers are seriously injured or killed by dangerous and defective products. Many of these injuries could be avoided if the manufacturers or distributors of these products took additional steps to ensure consumer safety. These products may include dangerous toys, improperly designed consumer products, automobiles, industrial machinery and equipment, and pharmaceutical drugs and devices.
You have the right to be compensated if you have been injured as the result of a defective product. One of the most difficult, expensive and important tasks in preparing and presenting a New York products liability case is securing the assistance and testimony of qualified experts. Our New York defective product law firm has the experience and resources required to obtain excellent experts who are qualified to testify about defective products at trial.
Many successful NY product liability cases result in not only obtaining substantial money damages for the victim, but also have the desired social effect of encouraging manufacturers to re-design a product suggesting legislation which establishes standards for safer products, and removes unsafe products from the market.
Our New York chemical injury attorneys have extensive experience handling various types of cases involving defective products. Product liability cases that we have handled include a defectively designed forklift, a defectively designed platform hoist, a defectively designed subway car, a defectively designed roof hatch, defectively labeled pharmaceutical drugs and others. In one such case we obtained a $1.175 million recovery for a 21 year-old man who was blinded in one eye when the cable wire of an improperly designed platform hoist snapped and struck his eye.
