Injured by a dangerous defective product in Orange County?
A defective product is called such because of the capability to produce injury due to flaws in manufacturing, design, labeling or other area involving the product in question from initial construction through to assembly or use in the consumer’s home or place of work. Companies who offer products for public and private consumption or use are expected to adhere to strict safety and prevention techniques to ensure that children or adults are not injured when they use the product in a reasonable manner.
If you or your child has been injured due to a faulty product, you should speak with an Orange County defective product lawyer at the Law Office of Bruce C. Bridgman immediately. Companies who produce dangerous merchandise can be and are held liable for injuries that their products cause. Defective products can include the following:
- Toys
- Tools
- Furniture (beds, cribs, etc)
- Auto Parts (tires, brakes, etc)
- Medical supplies
- Electronics
- Cooking equipment
Injuries caused from defective versions of the above can result in serious and severe injuries such as broken bones, head injuries, back injuries, neck injuries, severe burns, illness and even death. In the case of defective auto parts such as brakes, the aftermath can be devastating. Many people can be injured severely if a car cannot stop properly – and someone has to be held responsible for that atrocious error.
