The Cochran Firm Legal Blog

Product liability laws are in place to compensate consumers who have been injured or killed by the use of a defective product while holding the manufacturer and distributor of the defective product legally responsible.

Defective or dangerous consumer products have a history of causing devastating injuries and deaths to thousands of innocent people each year, including infants and children. Defective products have caused severe burns, brain and spinal cord injuries, amputations, debilitating illnesses and fatalities.

Some common defective consumer products have included toys, cribs, strollers, seatbelts, tires, smoke detectors, pet foods, medical devices, cars, drugs and household appliances. The list of defective consumer products includes thousands of items we use in our everyday lives that put us all at risk for injury and death.

Damages for injuries suffered by consumers while using a defective product include payment for your pain and suffering, lost income, medical expenses, disability and disfigurement, rehabilitation costs and in the event of a wrongful death, funeral and burial expenses and damages to the survivors and beneficiaries of the deceased.
