According to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, dangerous products cause millions of injuries every year–in fact, roughly 29.4 million injuries and 21,400 deaths every single year. This is a very grave number and it may come as a surprise, as we tend to think of America in the 21st century as having access to top-of-the-line products. If you were hurt because of a defective product, you can feel confident in your decision to turn to our knowledgeable New Jersey injury lawyers to fight for the compensation you deserve and need.
Common Types of Defective Products
As you can imagine, virtually any type of product can become unsafe for public use, though some of the most common types of defective products we see include:
- Defective cosmetics
- Dangerous power tools
- Defective car parts, such as airbags, brakes, or seat belts
- Defective drugs
- Dangerous medical devices
- Defective safety equipment
- Dangerous children’s toys
- Malfunctioning electronics
Proving a Defective Product Claim
If you or a loved one has been harmed by a defective product, you will have to prove you were injured either due to a) defective design, b) negligent manufacturing, or c) failure to warn. After sustaining an injury because of a defective product, you may be tempted to throw the product away to prevent further injury–do not do this. We can actually use the product itself as evidence in your defective product claim.
You should also be sure to take pictures of the incident/product defect/your injuries, gather witness contact information, seek medical attention, and, finally, retain the services of our knowledgeable New Jersey product liability lawyers who can help you pursue the full and fair compensation to which you are entitled.
Don’t Wait to File
The statute of limitations for personal injury claims in New Jersey is, typically, two years. If you wait longer than two years from the date your accident happened to file a personal injury claim, you’ll likely be permanently barred from doing so. The sooner you reach out to our firm, the better. We’re ready to help you today.
