San Bernardino Defective
Product Attorney

When an individual buys a product, he or she has an expectation that the product will be free of defects, and that it will be safe to use. However, many people receive injuries due to defective products every year. Even though there are many stringent safety guidelines in place to protect the public from defective product injuries, these types of injuries are far too common. From power tools to appliances to children’s toys, defective products can cause unexpected, severe injuries.

If you have been injured because of a defective product, make sure that you contact a products liability lawyer who has experience dealing with injuries caused by defective products. The San Bernardino defective product attorneys at Welebir Tierney & Weck have been helping those who are injured due to faulty products for more than 40 years.

Types of Faulty and Defective Products that May Cause Injury

There is a wide array of products and devices that we use on a daily basis that can cause severe injury if defective. Appliances for the kitchen, combustible appliances, defective smoke detectors, dangerous chemicals and solvents, and toxic cleaning products have all been linked to catastrophic injuries. Other types of products, such as power tools, broken safety devices, unsafe toys, poorly manufactured furniture, and defective heavy equipment and machinery are other products that, when defective, cause injury (and in some cases, even death). Motor vehicles are another place where faulty devices can cause injuries, such as accidents involving faulty seat belts, airbags, tires, etc.

Pharmaceuticals and medical devices can cause a host of very severe injuries if defective. Some pharmaceutical drugs, such as Paxil and Zolft, have been linked to some very serious injuries. Medical devices, such as certain DePuy hip implants, have also been shown to cause severe injuries. Attorney Douglas Welebir has handled cases in California, as well as in five other states, against the DePuy Orthopedics for their defective joint replacement systems.

When representing clients who have been injured by a dangerous and/or defective product, our attorneys look at what caused the product to be defective. In some instances, defective design or a manufacturing defect can cause an injury. Incomplete and/or negligent labeling and failure to warn are also common causes of injury in product liability cases. One of the most important aspects in representing individuals who have been harmed by a defective product is finding out who is the responsible party. The responsible party can be the designer, the distributor, the manufacturer, the retailer, or the supplier – and Welebir Tierney & Weck have the resources available to conduct the type of discovery necessary to pin-point liability.
