Illinois product liability injury attorneys

When a product is created, the manufacturer takes responsibility to make sure that their product is manufactured and designed safely. If it is not safe, such that someone becomes injured, then the manufacturer is responsible for the personal injuries and damages that result. The attorneys affiliated with Mitchell S. Sexner & Associates LLC stand ready to litigate those cases that involve products liability and to handle claims across the State of Illinois.

Our legal practice includes litigation for dangerous consumer goods and defective equipment such as:

• Defective automobiles
• Defective child car seats & restraints

In all of our products liability injury cases, we advance legal costs. No attorney fees apply unless our attorneys are successful and obtain a monetary recovery on your behalf.

These personal injury cases are often difficult and highly complex. Furthermore, when even a single successful claim is brought against such a manufacturer, it exposes a manufacturer to many further injury claims. Because of this, product manufacturers mount a vigorous defense in such cases. So, to properly defend your legal rights, what is required is an injury law firm with enough resources, time, determination and real experience to take on the insurers and manufacturers.

There are three basic types of product defect for which manufacturers and suppliers are liable:

Design defect – An inherent defect that exists before the product is manufactured that makes it unreasonably dangerous to use due to a design flaw.

Manufacturing defect – A defect that occurs during the construction or production of the item / just a few or many of the same type of product may be flawed.

Marketing defect – A defect that refers to improper instructions or failure to warn consumers of latent dangers in the product.
