Defective Product Attorneys

Washington, D.C., Maryland and Virginia

Manufacturers have a responsibility to make sure their products are thoroughly tested and safe for use by the public. Yet every year, thousands of people suffer catastrophic personal injury due to defective products in the United States. Some of these products were unsafe prior to use. Others have safety defects that occurred during manufacturing. Others still came with inadequate warnings or instructions.

The product liability lawyers at The Cochran Firm DC are experienced in handling personal injury claims for people living in Washington, D.C., Northern Virginia and Maryland. You deserve compensation for injuries you suffered through no fault of your own.

Common Defective Products

While any product can lead to injury, the top offenders tend to be:

  • Children's toys
  • Children's cribs, highchairs, and car seats
  • Defective motor vehicles
  • Consumer electronics
  • Medical devices
  • Power tools

Circumstances that can lead to a defective product include:

  • Manufacturing defects arising from an abnormality in the manufacturing process
  • Design flaws making a product unsafe prior to its use
  • Packaging defects such as inadequate safety warnings or instructions

In these cases, liability may lie with multiple parties. This can make assessing blame and seeking compensation more difficult. The experienced defective product attorneys at The Cochran Firm DC know exactly what to look for in these claims to prove liability and pursue maximum compensation for people who suffered injuries from someone else's negligence.
