In a perfect world, every product that lands in the hands of consumers would be completely safe and reliable. Unfortunately, that is not always the case. From household appliances to toys and even food items, products sometimes fail to meet basic safety standards.

What Is Product Liability?
Product liability refers to the legal obligation of a manufacturer, distributor, or seller to ensure that their products are free from defects that could cause harm to consumers. If you or someone you know has been injured due to a defective product, you may have grounds to file a product liability lawsuit to seek compensation for your losses.
Contamination: A Concerning Cause of Liability
One aspect of product liability that requires special attention is contamination. This term usually brings to mind food products tainted with harmful bacteria or chemicals, but contamination can also occur in pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and other consumer goods.
Contaminated products can lead to severe health issues, including but not limited to poisoning, allergic reactions, and long-term illnesses. At Falcon Law Group, we understand the nuances of such cases and are prepared to guide you through the legal landscape of San Antonio, to hold those responsible for your injuries accountable.
Defective Drugs
Defective drugs can have devastating effects on individuals and families. When pharmaceutical companies prioritize profits over safety, innocent consumers suffer. These drugs can cause severe side effects, worsen existing conditions, or even lead to life-threatening complications. Victims of defective drugs often face mounting medical bills, lost wages, and emotional distress.
Pursuing a product liability claim against negligent drug manufacturers can feel overwhelming. Our attorneys understand the complexities of defective drug cases and are dedicated to fighting for the rights of those harmed. If you or a loved one has been affected by a defective drug, contact us today for a free consultation.
