Products Liability

Pennsylvania Product Liability/Defective Product Attorney

Manufacturers who fall short of ensuring the quality and safety of their products must be held responsible for their negligence. The Law Offices of Edward P. Shaughnessy, located in Easton, Pennsylvania boasts 20 years of personal injury experience and can help you if you have been injured by a defective product.

At the Law Offices of Edward P. Shaughnessy, we have handled product liability cases involving defective bicycles, sports equipment, workplace machinery, power tools, automobiles (seatbelts, airbags, defective pillars, and crushed roofs), water heaters, clothing, and footwear.

The smallest defect in a product can cause broken and fractured bones, head injuries, spinal cord injuries, burn injuries, eye injuries, dental injuries, amputations, and death. Manufacturers often respond to injuries by claiming miscommunication in the schematics or implementing a product recall. However, if their product caused you to be hurt or a loved one to be killed, you are entitled to damages.

Like many of the personal injury cases we handle, products liability matters require the use of experts. The actual product or a duplicate of the product needs to be thoroughly studied in order to determine the extent of the defect and how the product injured you. Following that investigation, we will try to establish a pattern of injuries from this product, because if you were hurt, it is highly likely that others suffered similar injuries as well.

A detail-oriented approach from an experienced product liability attorney is the best way to establish your case and seek the compensation you deserve. Many cases settle, but we do not shy away from litigation if it provides the best resolution.
