Consumers have the right to expect that the products they buy in stores or online will be reasonably safe for their intended use. When there could be safety hazards, there should be warnings on the packaging or in documents that accompany the product. When a product’s potential for harm is significant and outweighs its usefulness, it shouldn’t be on the market.
When consumers suffer serious injuries from using a product, often the only way to hold manufacturers accountable is with a product liability lawsuit. When enough consumers make it too painful and expensive to continue to market a dangerous product, their actions can get the product pulled off the market.

What If the Defective Product Was Recalled?
Manufacturers are extremely resistant to the idea of a product recall. They usually fight tooth and nail to avoid the embarrassment and accountability of recalling a product. By the time they finally act, more people have suffered harm. Our product liability attorneys in Dallas represent clients throughout the state in every kind of defective product case, including those involving:
- Defective or dangerously designed consumer products: Appliances, furniture, electronics, toys, heating pads, baby strollers, car seats, cribs, bicycles, lawn mowers, outdoor equipment, Roundup, vaping equipment
- Defective vehicles and auto parts: defective tires, seat belts, and airbags
- Dangerous drugs
- Defective medical devices
- Defective industrial equipment: power tools, ladders, forklifts, pipeline equipment
Just because a manufacturer ultimately does the right thing, that does not absolve the company from its responsibility to those people who were injured by their product. There are still legal grounds to be compensated for your medical expenses and losses.
