Manufacturers and retailers can be held financially liable for defective products that harm or fatally injure consumers. Additionally, home owners can sue manufacturers when defective or malfunctioning products cause fires that destroy or damage property.

At the law office of Johnston & Johnston, our lawyers consult experienced design engineers, metallurgists, chemists, and safety experts in examining the design and failure of products. We have the investigative and forensic resources needed to uncover manufacturing defects and design flaws that lead to injuries and fires. If necessary, we subpoena records from a manufacturer to determine if proper quality control measures were in place, whether the company was aware of a problem, and what action was undertaken to protect consumers.

Manufacturers have a duty of care towards consumers to design and market products that are reliable and safe for their intended purpose. If you've suffered serious injury due to a defective product, contact products liability attorneys at Johnston & Johnston today.
