Our Approach
Understanding Your Products: We have a lot of experience in dealing with the technical parts of the products made by manufacturers. We look into claims where people say they got hurt and come up with ways to defend against those claims. We work with experts. They know about different types of engineering, like mechanical, electrical, and chemical engineering. We also work with experts who know about things like how fires start and how materials are joined together, among other things. We work with experts who can determine the damage’s extent. This includes medical experts. They know about healthcare and how long someone might live. We also work with money and business experts. They figure out things like how much money was lost because of the product problem and how much the business is worth.
Working to Prevent and Reduce Product Liability Claims: Lawsuits and product claims can cost companies a lot of money and time. We help our clients by creating safety programs and procedures. Also, we act quickly to address problems and take corrective actions. We examine and write warranties, disclaimers, and warnings. We help investigate and assess situations before claims. This helps our clients stop accidents from becoming claims and claims from becoming lawsuits.
Setting Liability Limitations: We give advice to our clients about the chances of getting sued related to how their products are sold, and we help write contract terms to define and reduce their responsibility if there are problems or faults with the products. If there’s a lawsuit, our product liability lawyers who specialize in product liability know a lot about the technical aspects of the products, and they also understand the differences between the contracts of the buyer and the seller.
Achieving Good Results with Efficiency: Our Law Firm knows that providing great legal help is not just about winning the case. Our lawyers also need to understand the company’s business, financial limits, and how to work with other companies that are involved. The important thing is to first understand what the company wants to achieve in the short and long term, and then provide legal help that matches those goals in a quick and efficient way.
Our Experience
Today, we draw on our experience in diverse industries. These include medicine, car manufacturing, factory machinery, and consumer products.
Life Sciences Industry Strength
Our law firm has product liability attorneys. They specialize in product liability and have a lot of experience with lawsuits for products regulated by the FDA. This includes things like special heart valves and blood processors. It also includes medicines for treating conditions like cancer and ADHD. Our Law Firm has been at the forefront of using a legal defense called federal preemption. It protects makers and sellers from big legal problems. We provide this kind of help to all sorts of clients, from product makers to healthcare systems. We also know a lot about the steps involved in getting products to customers. These include the supply chains and distribution channels. We understand how these things can affect the chances of facing product liability claims and how to reduce those risks.
Our team has dealt with all kinds of claims about problems with products regulated by the FDA, including claims that say things like:
- Medicines or medical devices that were made incorrectly or got damaged somewhere between the factory and when the consumer uses them.
- Medicines or medical devices that were made correctly but have a design that is very dangerous and could cause harm. For example, a device might start having problems after being on the market for a long time.
- People promote medicines and devices. They talk about them, including their recommendations, warnings, or instructions (or lack of them) about their dangers or safe use.
Manufacturing Industry Strength
Our Law Firm knows a lot about how things are made, which helps us use our experience in dealing with legal issues related to faulty products. The way we solve legal problems can vary depending on the client, the specific case, and the situation. Success can mean reaching an agreement, going to trial, or finding another way to resolve the issue. We also consider things like the client’s budget, how the public sees them, what customers think, and protecting their brand. When we start working on a case, we always ask, “What do you want to achieve?” Knowing this from the beginning is really important because it helps us come up with a plan that makes sense for each situation. We also make sure to stay consistent across different locations and when working with other law firms that are helping the client.
Many companies only start to prepare to defend against a claim about a faulty product after they get an official notice. Some only start when a lawsuit is filed. However, we have a lot of experience. So, we can offer guidance from the start of the product’s development to the resolution of disputes. Manufacturers are more likely to successfully defend themselves against a claim. This is if they think that any problem with their product could lead to a claim. They must then quickly act to address product liability issues. We want to join your team. We will advise on product design. We will audit to assess product liability risks. We will review insurance coverage. We will analyze warning labels and instructions. Our goal is to help you avoid lawsuits and reduce your responsibility if a claim arises. If there is a defect in the design or manufacturing, our product liability lawyers will work with you and inform you about the risks of litigation in the distribution process, including using contracts to limit those risks.
