Product Liability

At Louis C. Fiabane, New York’s leading product liability attorneys, we specialize in obtaining significant compensation for victims of defective and unsafe products. With our extensive expertise and proven track record, we are committed to helping injured consumers recover damages from manufacturers, distributors, retailers, or other responsible parties.

Understanding Product Liability

Product liability refers to the criminal liability of companies that plan, make, or offer items to guarantee they are secure for buyers’ use. If an item is defective and causes damage, the harmed party may have grounds for a product liability claim.ย 

Types of Product Defects

Three main types of product defects can lead to liability:

  • Design Defects: Flaws inherent in the productโ€™s design make it unsafe, even if manufactured correctly.

  • Manufacturing Defects: Errors during the manufacturing process render the product unsafe.

  • Marketing Defects: Insufficient warnings, instructions, or safety information accompany the product.

Establishing Liability

To prove a product liability claim, the plaintiff must demonstrate that:

  • The product was defective and unreasonably dangerous when it left the manufacturerโ€™s control.

  • The defect was the direct cause of the plaintiffโ€™s injuries.

  • The plaintiff used the product in a reasonably foreseeable manner.

Recoverable Damages

Victims of defective products may be entitled to compensation for:

  • Medical expenses

  • Lost wages and future earning capacity

  • Pain and suffering

  • Permanent disability or disfigurement

  • Wrongful death

Our teamย at Louis C. Fiabane is committed to dependable occasions and getting you the maximum recovery you deserve.

Product liability cases can be highly complex, often requiring extensive investigation, expert testimony, and detailed legal analysis. The attorneys at Louis C. Fiabane, P.C. have the expertise, resources, and litigation experience to effectively navigate these challenges and fight for the maximum compensation our clients deserve.

Strict liability and negligence

In New York, product liability claims may be based on strict risk or negligence. Negligence requires the producer to appear to have failed to exercise sensible care, and strict liability holds manufacturers accountable regardless of fault.

Statute of Limitations

Itโ€™s important to note that there are time limits for filing product liability claims in New York. The statute limitation is generally three years from the date of injury, but there are special cases and nuances to this rule.
