Any Accident. Any Injury. Anywhere.

Why ask LISKE to help you with your Product Liability case?

November 23rd 2021

Accidents and injuries may result from the use and/or misuse of consumer and/or industrial products, whether at work, at play, or during everyday living. A personal injury can occur when a product malfunctions, is poorly designed or, is used negligently.

LISKE Experts can help you with your Product Liability case, whether it’s central focus is:

1. Design Defects: defects in the very design of the product, before it is manufactured, that make it dangerous to use [1]. It may also include claims in which the product functions as intended but has no safeguards [2].

2. Manufacturing Defects: a defect that is created during the construction or production of the product [1].

3. Defects in Marketing: releasing the product with improper instructions and/or a failure to warn consumers of the product’s latent dangers [1].
