Product Liability Lawyers
Product Liability Lawyers must possess an overwhelmingly tight grasp on current and past legal rulings for product liability. At Shook, Hardy & Bacon, L.L.P. (SHB) our product liability lawyers have earned our firm international acclaim as a premier product liability and mass tort litigation defense firm. SHB has amassed more than 50 years of experience defending our clients in some of the most challenging and contentious legal arenas. As product liability lawyers, we often take part in very visible cases, which is why we are proud to receive recognition from such widely acclaimed organizations as Business Week and The National Law Journal. Business Week calls SHB “...the law firm of choice for many companies plagued by high-stakes and often controversial product-liability woes.” The National Law Journal recognized the SHB product liability lawyers for “cutting-edge work on the defense side” that includes litigation related to pharmaceuticals and medical devices; alcohol, tobacco and firearms; automobiles and machinery; aviation; electronics and fire protection equipment; and chemical applications. This wealth of experience has led numerous industry leaders and their subsidiaries to select SHB’s product liability lawyers as national, regional and convergence counsel in critical product liability matters.
Our product liability lawyers offer clients the complete defense package, comprising decades of courtroom success with state-of-the-art support services and cost-effective business solutions. We understand that lawsuits can jeopardize a company's reputation and disrupt business operations, so our product liability lawyers use their knowledge of the relevant federal agencies, such as the Consumer Product Safety Commission, to review product warnings, instructions for use, warranties, advertisements and related written materials. We also compare the client’s programs and practices with industry standards; analyze the case law concerning litigation against similar products; and work with the SHB Public Policy Practice to advocate legislative tort reform and minimize future risks. Finally, we offer risk assessment and risk avoidance counseling for domestic and international entities.
We combine the expertise of veteran trial lawyers with corporate counsel to ensure ongoing compliance with state and federal regulations, as well as document preservation requirements, in high-volume litigation scenarios. Our trial teams include attorneys well-versed in areas such as expert witness development, class action litigation and general litigation.
