Product Liability

After meeting with you to gather the facts of your case, a product liability attorney will decide who the proper defendants are for your case. In many cases, the manufacturer, supplier, distributor and / or installer of the product may be responsible for your injuries. Your attorney may file a formal complaint against the defendant(s) in court alleging that the defendant(s) are responsible to you pursuant to a product liability claim. There are three types of product liability cases. A plaintiff may allege that there was a design defect, a manufacturing defect or a failure to warn about known dangers. Accordingly, a Wisconsin product liability attorney must prove that the defendant(s) designed the product in a defective manner, manufactured the product with a defect or had a duty to warn you about the dangers of the product and failed to provide you with adequate warnings, which resulted in a serious injury or death.

A person who suffers a product liability injury, or his or her survivors, should contact a lawyer immediately due to Wisconsin laws and statutes of limitations.
