Product Liability The key to winning a product liability case is identifying the key issue and retaining the best experts in that particular field early on. Most product liability litigation is time consuming and very painstaking. Many manufacturers, importers, distributors and retailers (any one in the stream of commerce) have commercial insurance carriers that provide, at a minimum, over $1 million in coverage. Depending on the injury and particular issue, the insurance carrier will almost never settle without formal litigation taking place. Because of this, the process of litigation must be designed to prepare the case for trial.
We must be ready at the trial to pinpoint the design or manufacturing deficiencies that affected the fitness of the product. Comprehensive investigation is also done, in order to determine the frequency of similar accidents as a result of the use of that particular product. In many cases, simulations are also used in trial to show the jury why the product failed or why it was not fit for its use during the time of the incident.
“Mr Assanti obtained a multi-million dollar settlement on my behalf arising out of a very complex product liability case. Assanti’s dedication to the case and his ability to obtain the best experts made the difference” -Sandra Silva
