What Does a Defective Products Lawyer Do?

If you or a loved one sustained an illness or injury because of a defective consumer product, a lawyer with experience in defective products cases can help you take the next step.  If you choose to hire such an attorney, he or she will begin by reviewing the accident report, medical records and/or any other documents associated with the case to determine whether you have a valid claim against the product’s manufacturer.  Your attorney may also ask an unbiased medical professional to examine the records and/or examine the injured party.

If the lawyer finds that the manufacturer is at fault for the harm the product caused, he or she will file a case against the manufacturer on your behalf.  As the lawsuit progresses, your attorney will help you prepare for court, represent you during proceedings, negotiate with the manufacturer’s lawyers and do everything he or she can to ensure that the lawsuit is successful.  Depending on the nature of the case, you may receive medical compensation and/or punitive damages.
