Product Liability

Atlanta Defective Product Lawyers

Each year, many people are injured or killed by products that should never have reached the market. Consumers are exposed to products that are dangerous because of design defects, manufacturing problems, and inadequate warning or instructional labeling and marketing. However, people injured by such products have recourse under product liability law. They may receive compensation for their medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other costs of an injury caused by a defective product.

At Goldstein & Hayes, PC, our Georgia lawyers help people obtain payment and damages for injuries or death caused by defective products. During our more than 25 years in practice, our lawyers have assembled a strong record of accomplishment, obtaining substantial verdicts and settlements for clients injured by a dangerous or defective product. We hold manufacturers, designers, and retailers accountable for the products they make and sell. We take on some of the largest companies in America. They devote their extensive resources to defending products liability claims. However, our attorneys have the experience, resources, and technical knowledge to build a solid case and fight for our clients.

Time is crucial in a defective product case

Many potential clients interested in filing a product liability claim come to us too late—a year or more after the incident that caused the injury. By that time, the critical evidence has often been altered or destroyed. We urge people who believe they have been injured by a defective product to save what remains of the product and its packaging. We also urge you to contact an attorney today to discuss a possible claim.

• Auto defects. Tire defects, airbag defects, seat-belt defects
• Prescription and over-the-counter drugs. Lotronex, Ephedra, Thimerosol, and many others
• Industrial machines. Failed safety guards, explosions, loose parts, inadequate warning, construction equipment
• Consumer products. Power tools, ATV’s, SUV’s, paintball guns

We employ engineers and other experts to examine the product for clues about the flaws. Our attorneys investigate the history of the product, including similar claims for damages. Our investigators and specialists review the manufacturers' processes, the supply chain, and analyze the life cycle of product development, design and sale. We document the link between the design or manufacturing defect and the injury. When we accept a case around a product defect, our lawyers use all our resources and experience to develop a strong and compelling argument for our clients who have suffered injuries because of a defective product.
