Miami Product Liability

As our country integrates into a global market, many opportunities arise for manufacturers to cut costs by outsourcing, finding new materials, or otherwise limiting the amount of money they spend on product design and distribution. Expedient marketing and high profit drive leads to cheaper engineering, worse production, and sometimes, harmful products. Product liability claims arise when an individual is injured by a dangerous or defective product. The resulting injury must stem directly from the defect.

Our attorneys can help you by investigating your claim and determining if it fits the bill. Defective products or drugs can lead to serious injury, financial loss, and sometimes even death. If you or a loved one has been injured by a product you believe to be defective or dangerous, fill out our free, no-risk case evaluation form to learn what the product liability attorneys at our Miami office can do to help you.

  • What Makes a Product Dangerous?

    Products can be dangerous in a variety of ways. A product can be defective if it is poorly manufactured on an individual basis, and that instance of improper manufacturing led directly to your injury. Worse than a manufacturing error is a design error, which makes a product inherently dangerous or defective instead of in single instances. This means the whole line of products using that design is defective, and might have greater implications on your case your attorney can shed light on.

    Marketing defects involve false advertising or claims. Commonly, these types of claims are filed against pharmaceutical companies who overstate the positive effects of using their product, or minimize side effects. False marketing can occur in any industry, however, so be on the lookout. Another method of showing defectiveness is a failure to warn, which generally involves a lack of a sticker or label indicating the instructions or warnings required by the American National Standards Institute. ANSI requires warning labels inform consumers of existing product hazards, their severity and effects, plus how to avoid them.

    Any of these can qualify as a product liability claim if your injury was directly caused by the product, through no negligence of your own. A knowledgeable attorney can discern the different types of product liability and see which apply to your situation.

  • Examples of Recent Product Liability Claims

    Product liability appears in all markets, and have become especially prominent recently when it comes to medicine and technology. Some common examples include:

    Medicines

    • Actos
    • Lexapro
    • Fosamax
    • Topamax
    • Zoloft

    Consumer Fraud

    • Unfair Overdraft Protection Fees
    • Gas Station Gift Cards

    Medical Devices

    • Transvaginal Mesh
    • DePuy ASR Hip Implant
    • Shoulder Pain Pump

    Products

    • Chinese Drywall
    • CSST
    • Hoverboards

    This list is by no means exhaustive, and many products, like e-cigarettes, are being revealed as incredibly dangerous. Products can fail at any time, through no fault of your own. Miami residents could be particularly susceptible to medical or mechanical defects.

  • Who is Responsible?

    Determining responsibility for product liability can be a daunting task, but a trained attorney can differentiate between different sources of negligence. Most commonly, the defendant will be the manufacturer, retailer, or wholesaler.

    The manufacturer is the entity that produced the product, whether a multinational corporation or a person working out of their house. In short, any party that designed and marketed a product is a manufacturer, and a claim can involve either a manufacturer of a specific part or of the entire product.

    Retailers are responsible for vetting and selling products, and they imply a product is safe and ready for use. If a consumer buys a defective product, the seller can be held liable for damages, even though they weren’t involved in the manufacturing. When making a claim against a retailer, you don’t necessarily have to have purchased or used the product.

    A wholesaler is the middleman between the manufacturer and retailer, and can also be held responsible under certain circumstances. Any or all of these parties can be responsible, and a knowledgeable lawyer can help determine who.
