Product Liability and Children

Product liability cases involve any number of consumer toys, devices and electronics, but they all share one important element: a violation of trust. Product liability cases involving adults tend to center around vehicle parts, faulty medical devices or dangerous machinery, but for children, the equation is altogether different. Here at The Law Offices of Joseph Klest, we have been defending the families of injured children throughout the Chicagoland area for over 20 years, and our experience in this area is without peer.

Children And Dangerous Products

What kind of product liability cases involve children? Defective toys remain a common source of litigation here in Illinois, especially as ongoing issues with lead paint and shoddy manufacture continue to reverberate through our community. But you may also have encountered a defective children's product in the form of a car seat that failed to protect that child in an accident, or a medical device that failed at a crucial moment. The injuries that result can be devastating, including loss of function, brain injury, paralysis, traumatic amputation or death.

Win Your Product Liability Case

The key to winning a children's product liability case lies in assembling an appropriate corpus of evidence. Product liability cases can take the form of negligence, strict liability or a breach of contract, and distinguishing between these areas of litigation is essential for building a compelling lawsuit. Each carries its own burden of proof, which means that good documentation, engineering know-how, and consumer statistics will all enter the process. For that kind of expertise, you simply have to work with the pros.
