When you make a purchase, you have every right to believe that the product is safe. Whether you are buying an electronic device, a kitchen appliance, a car seat, or a toy for your child, you do so with the best of intentions. You probably don’t even consider whether or not the item is safe. Why would something be available for purchase if it was dangerous or defective?

Unfortunately, defectively designed products cause thousands of injuries every year to adults and children across the country. Sometimes, defective products are recalled, but it is often not until many people are injured.

Our Lawyers Have Experience Proving Liability in Product Liability Claims

Product liability claims against toy manufacturers, and manufacturers in general, usually involve one of the following issues:

• Failure to warn
• Defective design
• Defective manufacturing

Manufacturers have duties to the public. They must follow strict standards. The standards are fairly specific.

Generally, the products they make must be reasonably safe when used according to their intent. In other words, if you use an item as it is intended, you should expect not to get hurt.
When manufacturers breach their duties and injuries result, you might have a viable product liability claim.

You, with the help of our experienced product liability lawyers at Alonso Krangle, LLP, will have to prove the manufacturer was somehow negligent.

If you or someone you love suffered severe injuries because of a dangerous or defective product, you might be eligible to seek compensation from the manufacturer.

Types of Product Liability Negligence Claims

Whether they involve toys or other items, negligence in product liability cases typically fall into one of the three categories:

Failure to warn – This means that the manufacturer knew or should have known about the risk or danger that caused injuries and did not provide necessary warnings to consumers.

Defective design – This means that there was something inherent in the design of the product that contributed to your injuries. To prove a product has or had a design defect requires evidence that it could have been made safer, and the manufacturer should have known that.

Defective manufacturing – This means that somewhere along the line, someone’s negligence caused a problem that made the product defective. Defective manufacturing could involve bad parts or missing pieces that result in injuries.

Product liability claims often rely on expert testimony and technical reports. At Alonso Krangle, LLP, we have the resources and skills you need to prove your defective product claim and seek compensation.

Defectively Designed Products Cause Injuries to Children

Kids play. Kids get hurt.

This is a fact of life despite everything people do to protect their children and their communities. Despite how hard we try to prevent harm, toys, and play equipment cause hundreds of thousands of injuries to children each year.

Some of these injuries could have been avoided. Sometimes the injuries are the result of negligence.

Manufacturers of children’s toys and play equipment have responsibilities to make the products reasonably safe. They must adhere to certain standards of safety and design. Toys must have labels that include warnings, potential dangers, and the age and skill required for appropriate use.

Toys containing lead, items that pose choking hazards, and products with sharp edges cause some of the most severe injuries to children. Other items might combust or result in suffocation due to various defects.

Product Recalls and Product Liability Claims

The US Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) sometimes recalls products that are dangerous to children and adults. For some victims of defective and dangerous products, however, these recalls come too late.

When a product is the subject of a recall, it might provide important information if you are pursuing legal remedies against the manufacturer. Recalled products are often the subject of product liability claims.
