If you used a product believing it was safe, were injured by it and now believe it was dangerous and unsafe, you may have a legal right to compensation for the losses and harm you experienced. Our lawyers can help you file a claim and guide you through the legal process.
Few injury cases carry more risk of confusion and complexity than product liability cases. For instance:
- Engineers, doctors and other experts are often needed to determine whether or not the product was defective and the source of the defect
- Legal complexities can arise in determining who is responsible for the injuries, especially since many products sold in Ontario are from overseas. The defendant in a dangerous product case can be a manufacturer, distributor, retailer or another party in the supply chain, and that party may be located in Canada, the US, China or elsewhere
- Product liability cases can be based on provincial or federal law, depending on the nature of the case and the item
We will get the compensation you need, because you are not just another file to us, you are a life
Our lawyers have handled numerous product liability cases involving medical devices and surgical products (hernia mesh, Essure), pharmaceuticals, children’s toys, household goods, workplace machinery, motor vehicles and a range of other products and hazardous materials (asbestos). We can take on complex claims involving improper design, manufacturing errors, insufficient instructions, recalled items and even class action lawsuits and mass tort actions.
If you or a loved one suffered a burn, eye injury or any other serious injury caused by a dangerous product, we can ensure you get the compensation you need for your pain, suffering and damages.
