Product Liability & Defective Product Attorneys | Pennsylvania & Tri-State Area
When manufacturers, distributors, and retailers put dangerous and defective products into the marketplace, consumers pay the price with serious injuries and death. Pennsylvania’s strict liability law (402A of the Restatement of Torts) holds product sellers liable for injuries caused by defective products, regardless of negligence. At Siddons Law Firm, our product liability lawyers fight to hold manufacturers accountable. Call 610-255-7500 for a free consultation.
Types of Product Defects
Design Defects
A product has a design defect when its design is inherently dangerous, even when manufactured correctly. Examples include vehicles prone to rollover, medical devices with flawed designs, and children’s products with choking hazards.
Manufacturing Defects
Manufacturing defects occur during production, making a specific product different from and more dangerous than the intended design. Examples include contaminated food or pharmaceuticals, improperly welded structural components, and defective airbags.
Marketing Defects (Failure to Warn)
Manufacturers must provide adequate warnings and instructions for the safe use of their products. Failure to warn about known risks can result in liability for resulting injuries.
Common Product Liability Cases
Our firm handles claims involving defective motor vehicles and auto parts, dangerous pharmaceuticals and medical devices, defective household appliances, children’s toys and products, industrial and construction equipment, defective safety equipment, contaminated food and beverages, and e-cigarettes and vaping devices.
