Manufacturers and sellers of goods may be held responsible for injuries and deaths (wrongful deaths) caused by dangerous or defective products, even if there is a product recall or the danger was unknown. In many cases, the failure to foresee potential risks or dangers posed by a product is enough to create liability for a manufacturer. For example, the maker of a stain remover may include a warning label indicating the toxic nature of its product but fail to warn of its flammability. As such, the manufacturer can be held liable for fires and burns caused by the product since burns and fires are a foreseeable danger posed by the stain remover.

Don't assume your injuries are simply the result of bad-luck. Manufacturers can be held liable for defective, dangerous, and improperly labeled products. If you think you may have a product liability case, contact our attorneys for a free consultation.

Product Liability Lawsuits Protect Consumers

Product liability litigation forces manufacturers and distributors to carefully consider the costs of endangering consumers and workers, particularly workers in the construction field. A dangerous product lawsuit could potentially save lives and prevent future injuries.

Personal injury claims involving dangerous or defective products are difficult to prove

Product liability claims are complex and require skill, experience, and the resources to outlast big corporations. Our lawyers work closely with engineering, safety, and medical experts to demonstrate to insurance companies and juries how products have caused injuries.

We have established a strong record of verdicts and negotiated settlements in product liability cases.

How We Demonstrate That A Dangerous Product Caused Injury Or Death

• The experts we consult come from a wide variety of fields, ranging from engineers who actually build and design products to experts in the field of product warning labels.
• Our courtroom demonstrations involve scale models, computer animation, and accident reconstruction exhibits. Medical illustrations along with computer simulations are prepared as well to help juries understand how the defects and dangers of products have caused serious injuries or death.
• Our trial attorneys have the skill and experience to present compelling cases.

Representative Product Liability Cases

• Construction site cases : Panter, Panter & Sampedro was asked to recreate a model scissor lift to exact scale of the actual scissor lift involved in the case of a seriously injured worker. The model was used as a courtroom exhibit demonstrating how the worker fell and suffered the destruction of his kneecaps. After a lengthy trial, the jury returned a $1.7 million verdict. The case was later appealed to the Third District Court of Appeal and ultimately argued in front of the Florida Supreme Court by Mitchell Panter. The Florida Supreme Court affirmed the verdict, resulting in compensation to a young working man for his medical expenses and loss of employability.
• Food safety cases: Our attorneys have won product liability cases involving food safety - particularly oysters and injuries caused by eating tainted seafood. We are also prepared to handle cases involving contaminated produce, beef and E Coli poisoning that results in serious injuries or death.
• Negligent installation, design, and manufacture: In another case, our firm made a substantial recovery for an individual who suffered serious lacerations due to the negligence of a shed manufacturer and their distributor who also installed the shed. We discovered that the shed was improperly designed, manufactured and constructed, and demonstrated liability on the part of the manufacturer and distributor of the shed.
