Pennsylvania Product Liability Attorney

Pennsylvania Product Liability Lawyer - Comitz Law Firm, LLC
Many people are injured every year due to defective products they purchased thinking they were safe. As consumers, we often take it for granted that manufacturers will carefully inspect and ensure a product’s safety before marketing it to the public.

However, the alarming frequency of recalls of products such as tires and other auto parts, every day appliances, food items, and even children’s toys is proof that not enough attention is being paid to product safety. If you or a loved one has sustained injuries due to a defective product, you may be entitled to monetary compensation for your injuries and your pain and suffering.

Comitz knows the ins and outs of product liability cases, and has advocated successfully on behalf of many clients who have been injured due to product defects. He can provide you with the legal information you need to determine the sort of lawsuit to file, and is committed to getting you the help and financial compensation you deserve.

 

Consumers who sustain injuries due to defective or dangerous products notwithstanding proper use and adherence to product safety guidelines may be entitled to bring a lawsuit against a manufacturer for negligence or strict liability. Under the legal concept of strict liability, a person or manufacturer can be held liable for damages sustained by another person regardless of intent or fault. The plaintiff in a strict liability case does not need to prove that the manufacturer intended to harm someone with its product.

In order for the manufacturer to be held liable under strict liability, a plaintiff must prove that the product was defective, that he or she used the product in a manner consistent with its intended use, and that the product was not altered in any significant way since leaving the manufacturer or retail location. Some examples of defective products that have resulted in product liability claims are:

  • Appliances
  • Automobile parts
  • Child car seats and restraints
  • Children’s toys
  • Cribs
  • Food products
  • Household and industrial chemicals
  • Lawn mowers
  • Outdoor furnaces
  • Tires
