Product Liability Defense

Dangerous and Defective Product Defense

Product liability has the potential to devastate the profits of your company. Under the theory of strict liability, even businesses that do not intentionally manufacture or design a defective product could face significant financial liability. At Montfort, Healy, our attorneys represent businesses that market and sell a wide variety of products, including industrial tools, lathes, grinders, saws, forklifts, and trucks.

Our firm, located in Garden City, New York, defends businesses in product liability lawsuits. Many people feel they should receive damages for product related injuries, no matter how inappropriately they used the device. If your company has been named as a defendant in a product liability lawsuit, contact our managing partner.

We practice in the following areas related to product liability defense:

• Design defect
• Manufacture defect
• Warning or safety defect
• Industrial product defect
• Industrial and construction personal injury

Once you put us on your case, we immediately begin developing an aggressive strategy to defend your business. We hire experts to examine the device to study its design, construction, and safety.

Safety Devices and Product Liability

If a product you designed or manufactured included a known safety device, you can avoid product liability. Many workers remove safety devices from products, attempting to make the device easier to operate. Alteration of the product can be a defense to the action. The manner in which a business chooses to use your product may also be a defense to liability.
