Utah Lawyers for Your Defective Product Injury Claim
A product recall is not an all-encompassing protection for the manufacturer. However, evaluating whether a product recall was issued and how the information was distributed to those potentially affected can be a key component of any product liability case.
If you used a product before a safety recall and are suffering serious consequences — or if you believe a defective product of any kind caused serious injury or a death in your family anywhere in Utah — contact a lawyer now at Eisenberg & Gilchrist of Salt Lake City.
Hundreds of product recalls are issued by the U.S. National Product Safety Commission each year, and thousands more may be voluntarily initiated by manufacturers. The public becomes aware only of the most serious and widespread, such as those issued in recent years for the drug Vioxx, toys with lead paint and various tires susceptible to tread separation that caused serious accidents.
Thorough Evaluation of Your Legal Options After Any Product-Related Injury
Whether a product recall has been issued, we are prepared to evaluate and aggressively pursue claims arising from injuries or a wrongful death caused by:
- Cars, trucks, motorcycles, and the parts they require to function — including defective tires, braking systems, fuel lines, gas tanks and many others
- Dangerous drugs and defective medical devices ultimately pulled from the U.S. market, in categories ranging from diet, pain relief and other medications to defibrillators, pain patches and pacemakers
- Sports and recreational products including defective ski bindings, bicycles, all-terrain vehicles, jet skis and Yamaha Rhino, Gator, or other ATVs recalled due to excessive rollover injury risk
- Toys and other baby and children's products judged dangerous because they expose children to lead paint, toxic chemicals, choking hazards or other serious risks
- Fresh or processed food items that expose consumers to E Coli bacteria, salmonella, or other potentially fatal types of food poisoning
- Computer and electronic products that can cause fires and burns
- Outdoor and household products such as grills and kitchen appliances that pose unacceptable fire and burn risks
