Have You Been Injured by a Defective Appliance?

Improper product design is one way in which a product can lead to serious injury or death. A stove may not radiate heat properly or an electrical appliance may not be wired correctly, leading to risk of electrical shock.

Appliance fires are most often caused by:

  • Malfunctioning outlets
  • Bad wiring
  • Improper installation
  • Overheating
  • Faulty materials that can’t withstand heat

Improper warnings and instructions can also lead to serious, often fatal accidents. Manufactures have a duty to provide reasonable warnings to consumers using their products. A failure to meet this obligation can often lead to the death or injury of innocent people.
