Experienced Product Liability Lawyer, Chris Jones of Longview, Texas is Board Certified in Personal Injury Trial Law and passionate in the representation of the victims of defective products.  Mr. Jones has been a personal injury lawyer for over 24 years.

In Texas, there are three types of product defects:

1. Manufacturing Defects
2. Marketing Defects
3. Design Defects

Product liability cases can be difficult and expensive.  Manufacturers will hire excellent product liability lawyers and fight hard on a single case because of the number of the same products they have already sold that they may have to admit are defective if a case is successful.   Obviously, this is an expensive proposition for the manufacturer.

There are government agencies charged with protecting the public from defective products.  A great resource for researching products that may be defective is www.recalls.gov where six federal agencies with vastly different jurisdictions have joined together to create a “one stop shop” for U.S. Government recalls.  Buyer beware; simply because a product has not been recalled does not mean it is safe.  In fact, each of the agencies also accepts consumer complaints concerning products.

Please see our personal injury blog posts on Defective Products, Products Liability , Documenting Personal Injury Damages, and Accidents in the Workplace – Fall Protection.

We have handled a number of product liability cases with automotive defect claims involving roof crush,  fuel fed fires, seat belts, defective window glass, rollover, tires, doors opening during crashes. Please see our post Crashworthiness.  Among other defective product cases we have handled are cases involving medications, boats, lawn mowers, steering systems,  child restraints, chain saws, backup alarms, shoes and firearms.  If your potential claim concerns an aviation product, please see our post Aviation Accidents.

Collection of evidence is important in products liability case.  For this reason, you should hire a lawyer with whom you are comfortable as soon as possible after an accident caused by a defective product.

The defective product is important evidence in a products liability case.  Do not dispose, alter, or in any way spoil the defective product as evidence if you are considering legal action.
