Defective Products

Fort Lauderdale, Florida Product Liability Attorney • Taking on Manufacturers of Dangerous Products

Statewide Representation • 1-800-529-8883

A machine explodes. An air bag fails. An appliance catches fire. An SUV rolls over. The outcome is often injury or death, and the manufacturer is liable for damages. For aggressive representation, arrange a free consultation with Florida product liability attorney Mitchell Fox.

Mr. Fox has won numerous settlements and verdicts in defective product litigation for clients across Florida. The key to his success? Having a vision for the case, mapping out legal strategies, thorough investigation, and full preparation for the possibility of a trial. At a larger law firm, a senior partner may meet with you initially, then hand your case off to a paralegal or junior associate. At our firm, you are never lost in the shuffle because Mitchell Fox handles your claim personally.

A lawsuit is filed when it becomes clear that litigation is a means to an end. Instead of wasting valuable time hoping the case will settle, contact Mitchell Fox so that he can take immediate action to file a lawsuit and preserve evidence that could make or break your case.

Defective Products

Any product can be the subject of a liability claim for damages:

  • Auto defects (tires, air bags, brakes, etc.)
  • Construction equipment (heavy equipment, ladders, tools, etc.)
  • Prescription and over-the-counter drugs (Vioxx, Celebrex, Paxil, etc.)
  • Medical devices (implantable pacemakers, surgical stents)
  • Hazardous chemicals and household products
  • Defective safety caps causing poisoning or overdose in kids
  • Children’s toys
  • Power tools
  • Lawn mowers
  • Electric saws
  • Kitchen and bathroom appliances, causing burns or electrocution

Investigation and Litigation

Although it is not required to prove negligence, you must prove that the product was defective (inherently dangerous when used as intended, or unreasonably dangerous to the average user).

A product claim must prove one of the following:

  • A design defect (the product was manufactured to specifications, but the design itself was dangerous)
  • A manufacturing defect (not produced to design specs because of a flaw in manufacture, assembly, testing, raw materials, or components)
  • A failure to warn the end user of likely dangers (missing warning labels, faulty instructions)

Manufacturers employ legions of lawyers to defend against product liability claims. The Law Office of Mitchell Fox has 18 years of experience, and the skills and resources to stand up to automakers and other major U.S. manufacturers (and sellers in the distribution chain).

We employ product engineers, medical specialists, and other experts to examine the product and link the injury definitively to the defect.
