Defective Consumer Products
New York Products Liability Lawyers
Manufactures, distributors and retailers of a consumer product have a duty to ensure that the product is designed safely, manufactured properly and that consumers are warned of risks inherent in the use of the product. If they violate any of these duties and someone is seriously injured or killed, the companies will be required to compensate the victim. The compensation may include medical expenses, lost earnings, pain and suffering, and sometime punitive damages.
