As a nation of consumers, most Americans use hundreds of products
on a daily basis. When injuries and property damage result
from dangerous and defective products, such as consumer products,
recreational products, automobiles, bicycles, child car seats,
tools, manufacturing equipment, workplace machinery, food,
medications, pesticides and medical devices, the manufacturers
and other parties involved in the chain of commerce may be
liable for monetary damages.
Such injuries resulting from dangerous or defective products
are often serious. As a result of such injuries, victims commonly
incur significant hospitalization costs and medical bills.
Wage loss claims, both short term and long term, are also
common to these types of injuries.
