At the Birmingham law office of Burge & Burge, we can take action. Our AV®-rated* lawyers have over 50 years of combined experience to help people succeed in product liability cases. From car accident-related claims to drug recalls, we thoroughly and effectively prepare each case for trial in pursuit of the best results for our clients.
Product Liability in a Car Accident
When you or a loved one has been hurt or killed in a car accident, it is important to consider every fact. Sometimes the real cause of your injury is a defective product. Sometimes the airbag fails to deploy. Sometimes the seatbelt disconnects without warning. If you think that a defective product caused the harm, contact the product liability lawyers at Burge & Burge to talk about a course of action.
Product Liability on the Job Site
Many people think that all claims related to a work injury must be brought under workers’ compensation law. This is simply not true. Sometimes a dangerously designed or defective product is the real cause of the injury. In those cases, we can take action to hold companies accountable for the defective product they manufacture or sell. Whether you have been harmed by a machinery failure, a toxic chemical or another product on the job site, we can take action.
Experts are vital to successful product liability claims. Our experienced attorneys know how your case can benefit from expert testimony. At Burge & Burge, we work with a network of reliable experts who can testify to the judge and jury about product liability.
Talk With Us Before You Take Action
People often make the mistake of thinking they can handle a product liability claim on their own. They fill out accident reports or talk to claims adjusters before talking with a lawyer. Under the pressure of the situation, they may make mistakes that actually harm their case. It is important to know how much your claim is worth. Before you act, talk with us about your legal rights to make sure that you get the most out of your product liability claim.
