Portland Product Liability Lawyer
Oregon Defective Products Attorney
- Product liability refers to products that are unsafe due to defective design, defective manufacture, or inadequate / misleading instructions or warnings.
- All serious injuries and all deaths from products are always unreasonable and always unnecessary if they can be minimized or avoided through reasonable means.
- Cases involving product liability include: construction accidents, sports and recreation equipment, medical equipment, highway design, and household and consumer products.
To successfully settle a product liability claim for money damages, it is necessary to understand the product and what could have been done to avoid the injury — either by you or by the business responsible for designing or manufacturing the product. In cases involving consumer products, or industrial or farming equipment, some things are simply dangerous by their very nature.
"Insurance companies often argue that the victim of a dangerous product can’t claim damages because he wasn’t using the product in a reasonable manner. The truth is, every serious injury or death is always unreasonable and always avoidable, if it could be minimized or avoided through reasonable means." — Attorney Bill Savage
The Savage Law Firm has been helping victims of dangerous products and manufacturer negligence since 1978. We know the issues to investigate and clarify in order to negotiate a full and fair settlement or win in court. The truth is, the last several years have been tough on these classes of cases, as manufacturers, distributors and installers have fought for stronger legal protections.
