Every day, Americans rely on household products such as toys, car seats, walkers, medication, and furniture to work properly. We assume the household items we use are safe, but defects can make ordinary products dangerous to use. The Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), estimates there were more than 13 million consumer product-related injuries in 2017. Products that contain manufacturing, design, or warning defects can pose hazards including, but not limited to, the following:
- Fire
- Poisoning
- Spinal cord injury
- Falls
- Suffocation/choking
- Toxic chemical exposure
- Electrocution
Types of defective products.
Some common examples of defective products include:
- Car seats
- Toys
- Electric blankets
- Infant cribs, jumpers, and playpens
- Household furniture
- Medication
- Heaters
- Walkers
- Strollers
- Appliances
- ATVs and ROVs
- Carbon monoxide
- Pools and spas
- Portable generators
- Sporting equipment

“Great attention to detail, compassion and dedication”
My husband was diagnosed with mesothelioma and we reached out to Kaitlin to represent us, we are so grateful we did. Kaitlin not only knows everything about asbestos law, but she was the most caring attorney we've dealt with. This was a difficult time for us, but Kaitlin made us feel we could leave it up to her.
