Our Product Defect Case Results

You trust a product to help you with daily tasks. However, when a product malfunctions, it can lead to catastrophic injuries. That’s why our attorneys and support staff of investigators, case managers, and medical records specialists can help you place responsibility on the negligent party.

Common Examples of Product Defects

Any product can malfunction. Here are some of the most common items our Oklahoma City product liability attorneys handle:

• Automobiles: Malfunctions in brakes, airbags, tires, and other vehicle parts can result in serious accidents and injuries.
• Medical Devices: Problems with pacemakers, implants, or surgical tools can cause significant health complications.
• Children’s Toys: Toys made with toxic materials, small detachable parts, or sharp edges can pose serious safety risks.
• Household Appliances: Defects in items like stoves, dryers, or heaters may cause electrical shocks or fires, leading to severe burns.

• Electronics: Faulty batteries, chargers, or other components can overheat or explode, leading to damage and injury.

Types of Product Liability

There are 3 main categories of product liability claims our defective product attorneys in Oklahoma City handle, each designed to address specific issues with defective products:

Design Defects

These flaws stem from the product’s original design, making it inherently unsafe even if it’s manufactured correctly. For example, a vehicle designed in a way that increases rollover risk or a toy designed with small parts that present a choking hazard.

Manufacturing Defects

These malfunctions occur during the production or assembly process. Even if the design is safe, the product becomes dangerous because it wasn’t made as intended, such as a chair with a misaligned leg or a car with improperly installed brakes.

Marketing Defects (Failure to Warn)

These issues happen when a product lacks proper instructions, warnings, or labeling. A product may be hazardous if users aren’t adequately informed about risks or how to use it safely. For instance, a drug without clear dosage guidelines or a chemical cleaner with no warning about its corrosive properties.

Who Can Be Held Liable for Product Defect Claims?

There are many hands in the manufacturing process. From its initial design to being placed on the shelves, there are many steps where development can go wrong.

Depending on your unique case, any of the following can be held responsible for your claim:

• Designers
• Engineers
• Manufacturers
• Installers
• Assemblers
• Distributors
• Retailers
