Manufacturers have a responsibility to produce and market products that are safe and that carry adequate instructions and warnings about their use. When a manufacturer fails to live up to this responsibility, serious injuries and even death can occur.

If a product causes a person to suffer injuries due to poor design, a flaw in the construction of the product, inadequate or misleading labeling, or insufficient documentation, the manufacturer and/or the distributor and retailer may be responsible.

Product Liability Law
Every year, thousands of innocent victims suffer serious injuries because of defective products that have an unsafe design, come with insufficient warnings or instructions, or are fraudulently marketed. Injuries can range from minor lacerations to catastrophic brain and spinal cord injuries, and defective products can range from simple devices or substances used in the home to construction site products and industrial equipment.
In many states, product liability cases fall under the umbrella of "strict liability." In essence, strict liability means that the law does not consider whether a manufacturer, designer, or marketer was aware of a product defect. If you are injured while using a product and our product liability attorney demonstrates to the satisfaction of the court that the product is unreasonably dangerous or unfit for its intended use, then the defendant (the manufacturer, designer, and/or marketer) can be held responsible.
The doctrine of strict liability protects consumers because few people have the resources to take on a large company in a product liability case. Without strict liability, companies could thumb their noses when their defective products cause injury, and victims would have little or no recourse for obtaining compensation. Strict product liability also places the responsibility on manufacturers and others to ensure that products are safe. At the Warshauer Law Group in Atlanta, Georgia, we know that defective products can cause unwarranted pain and suffering. An attorney from our firm can provide aggressive and thorough legal representation to victims to help them achieve justice and obtain compensation from every party who contributed to the dangers posed by a defective product.
