Products Liability Overview

Current Investigations

When discussing products liability, it is important to differentiate between products that are dangerous and those that simply do not do what they are supposed to do.

Defective products, which can include anything from new cars that break down in the first 1,000 miles to computer hard drives that destroy data, are an issue of consumer fraud, not products liability. For more information about Defective Consumer Products, visit the Consumer Class Actions section of our web site.

Dangerous products are an issue of products liability because they endanger personal safety. Manufacturers and sellers of products have a duty imposed by law to provide those products with every element necessary to make them safe for their ordinary uses - and to ensure that the products they sell do not contain anything that would cause injury to the user.
