Product Liability Lawyers
Holding Manufacturers Responsible for Defective & Dangerous Products

A home burns down because of a defective space heater. A child suffers serious injuries because of a dangerous toy. A man is disabled from using a faulty piece of machinery. These are the kinds of tragic circumstances that make the news.

Has such tragedy happened to you? If so, then you may have legal recourse through a product liability lawsuit against the manufacturer.

In our many decades of serving injured people, the product liability lawyers at The Previant Law Firm, S.C. have handled thousands of personal injury cases and wrongful death claims. During your initial consultation, we can help you decide whether to pursue your claim in court or attempt negotiations.​

​Examples of Product Liability Cases
Every day we use hundreds of products, such as hair dryers, playground equipment, and automobiles. We expect them to be safe and most of them are—but hundreds of people are injured every year by defective products or products with a faulty design.

If you or someone you know suffered an injury from a product that may have a defective component, design, or structure, then our product liability attorneys want to know about it.
We’ve worked with clients who have been the victims of:

• SUV rollovers
• Defective tires that explode, shred, or have tread separation
• Defective seatbelts or airbags
• Defective machinery causing workplace injuries
• Faulty wiring in kitchen appliances
• Toxic household cleansers or laundry detergents
• Defective medical devices
• Dangerous pharmaceuticals

Injuries from defective and dangerous products include fires and burns, amputations, electrical shock, explosions, suffocation, and even death. Our attorneys take meticulous care to examine every possible angle for the cause of your injury. If we can prove the product was defective, then we may be able to help you.

Understanding Product Liability Lawsuits in Wisconsin
Were you seriously injured or has a loved one passed away as a result of a defective product? You may be able to seek compensation in court for lost wages, medical expenses, and pain and suffering.
Product liability claims may be filed under one of the following categories:

• Strict Products Liability – Because some products are inherently dangerous, the courts hold the manufacturer strictly liable for any injury. Your attorney only has to prove the product caused the injury.
• Negligence – Under the negligence standard, the court must be satisfied that the manufacturer owed you a duty of reasonable safety, that this duty was breached, and that the breach caused you harm.
• Breach of Warranty – Where a warranty is involved, a manufacturer may be held liable if the terms of the warranty were not fulfilled.

Don’t assume that your injury was your fault or that it occurred because you may have used the product improperly. The law requires manufacturers to install certain safety features to prevent injuries, including accidental ones.
