Central New York Product Liability Attorneys

Given the safeguards imposed by government regulatory agencies and the competition for loyal customers and repeat business, consumers today shouldn’t have to worry about getting anything but the safest products and consumer goods. Yet, people are seriously injured, even killed, by defective products every day. The victims and their families are left wondering what happened and how to make it through the difficult times ahead.

The personal injury lawyers at Nicholas, Perot, Smith, Welch & Smith see lives changed forever by traumatic injuries from failing and defective products. We work with people across the Central New York area helping them get their lives back to normal after sustaining injuries of every kind from one or more products of many different types.

Some of the Products Frequently Causing Injury When Defective include:

• Automobiles and other motor vehicles as well as automotive parts
• Children’s toys
• Recreational equipment
• Over-the-counter and prescription drugs
• Cosmetics
• Tools
• Home appliances
• Food from grocery store and restaurants
• Clothing and other apparel

Sadly, too many businesses and manufacturers make growing their profits the number 1 priority, even at the expense of other company priorities, such as safety, quality controls or corporate image. They think they can get away with cutting corners, and if tragedy strikes, corporate spin doctors and plausible deniability will protect them.

How Our Product Liability Lawyers in Central New York Can Help You

We put in the legwork needed to gather information on what caused the injury, the companies that manufactured, sold and distributed the product and documented proof of its safety. In addition, we work with the accident victim and family members to determine the extent of injuries, financial impact of the accident, future needs and expenses.

The result is a powerfully compelling product liability claim for our clients in the Central New York area. The lawsuit demands compensation for medical expenses – present and future, lost wages, and pain and suffering. And, as a guardian of consumer rights, we also make a strong case for punitive damages against the corporate officers who chose to sell the unsafe products.

If you believe that you or a loved one were injured because of a defective product, you should consult knowledgeable product liability lawyers like our team at Nicholas, Perot, Smith, Welch & Smith. We understand the challenges of pursuing a case against huge companies with the resources to mount a strong defense.
