Our Product Liability Team Collaborates With Experts
If you have been injured by a product you believe to be defective, it is important to speak with attorneys who can assemble a team of experts to help present your case.
In America, we use hundreds of products in our everyday life. Often, part of our decision to buy a product is whether it is safe for our family. Dangerous or defective products can cause serious, unexpected, and permanent injuries. Occasionally a product is made with poor quality materials or poor workmanship, making it unsafe. Some products may have just been designed inherently dangerous. Other times, manufacturers will not warn consumers about the inherent dangers of a product.
At Grayson & Grayson in Jefferson City, we regularly get results by bringing experts such as design engineers on board for our clients’ sakes.
Consult With A Lawyer After Suffering Injuries Because Of A Product
In much of the world, manufacturers are strictly responsible for defective products they sell to consumers because the manufacturer knows the weaknesses of its products better than the customer and is better equipped to fix the problems. Unfortunately in much of the United States including Missouri, the law places the burden on an injured person to prove the science behind a defective product.
Ask an attorney’s opinion for free at Grayson & Grayson. Our lawyers will investigate and analyze the product and situation that caused your injury or your loved one’s untimely death.
For a chance at the results that you need, contact the personal injury law firm as soon as possible so they can begin their investigation and take over all interactions with insurance adjusters, investigators and defense lawyers on your behalf.
