Jayson, Farthing & Skafidas P.A., represents individuals harmed by products that were designed or produced in an unsafe or unreasonably dangerous manner.
In many cases, products fail to perform as the manufacturer intended, or fail to perform when used by a consumer in a reasonably foreseeable manner. In other cases, a product fails to be accompanied by warnings sufficient to notify a consumer about a hidden characteristic of the product that is dangerous. When a product is defective in one or more of these ways and a consumer is injured, the manufacturer may be liable.
Many factors may be involved in a defective product reaching and injuring a consumer. In some cases, only the manufacturer may be responsible. In other cases, a distributor, wholesaler, local retailer, or general contractor may also be at fault for the sale or use of the product.In some instances, it is a medical device that is deemed defective and should be treated as a product liability suit rather than a case of medical malpractice.
