Injured by a Defective Product in New York?

If you were injured by a dangerous or defective product in New York, you may be eligible to file a product liability claim for compensation.

What Is a Product Liability Claim?

A product liability claim allows injured consumers to hold companies accountable for unsafe products. These claims generally fall into three categories:

1. Design Defect – The product was dangerously designed, even if properly manufactured.
2. Manufacturing Defect – A flaw occurred during production, making the product hazardous.
3. Failure to Warn – The product lacked adequate instructions or safety warnings.

Even if you used the product correctly, you may still have a claim if it failed in a foreseeable way and caused injury.
