Products Liability
We have all heard about frighting cases in which cell phone or computer batteries explode, pajamas catch on fire, medicine causes harm, pacemakers fail to work properly. These situations all have one thing in common, they are potential products liability cases. We at FBPD are Pennsylvania products liability attorneys who know the law and are able to represent you whether you are injured by a product or need to defend against a products liability case.
Not every case is a legitimate products liability case, and the lawyers of Forbes, Bender, Paolino, & DiSanti can help you determine if your situation is legitimate, or help you defend against a case where your product did not cause the harm claimed by the opposing party, or you simply are not liable for any harm your product might have caused.
Here, in Pennsylvania, products liability law operates under three circumstances:
1. The product is faulty and causes injury
2. The product has a manufacturing defect and causes harm
3. There is a failure to warn consumers about dangers or to provide appropriate instructions for use of the product, and that failure leads to injury
If you have been injured, we provide a free consultation and there is no fee unless we recover money for you. On the defense side, your insurance company will retain a firm to help you and we are happy to discuss fees with your insurance provider.
