Products Liability Defense

Pennsylvania and New Jersey Products Liability Defense Lawyers

At Wynn McGarry, our experienced trial attorneys represent insurance companies and self-insured manufacturers, retailers, and distributors in defense of personal injury and wrongful death claims related to consumer goods, industrial equipment, and other products. For additional information about the scope of our products liability defense practice, contact us in our Suburban Philadelphia office.

We provide highly responsive, solution-oriented client service on a wide range of defective product litigation problems. Our goal in all cases is to minimize your exposure through rigorous analysis of your options as to both liability and damages. In cases where pursuit of a third party for contribution or indemnification will be an important aspect of your defense, our experience with the litigation of factually complex product liability claims represents an important advantage for our clients.

The defense of product liability claims very often depends on highly coordinated work with technical professionals from many different disciplines. Our lawyers collaborate with experts in defense of claims involving such product-related accidents as the following:

• Injuries caused by explosives at construction sites or industrial settings
• Electrocution at home or at work
• Alleged defects of such appliances as space heaters, air conditioners, or stoves
• Injuries caused by carbon monoxide poisoning
• Asbestos injuries ranging from asbestosis to mesothelioma based on exposure many years ago
• Malfunction of automotive products and components such as seat belts, air bags, tires, window glass, or roof structures

Our decades of experience with high-stakes personal injury defense can help you determine how to assess the quality of the plaintiff's proof as to both liability and damages. Our long experience with Pennsylvania and New Jersey workers' compensation claims gives us special insight into industrial accident claims based on defective equipment, machinery, or tools.
