3 Hazards That Could Lead to a Pennsylvania Defective Product Claim

You could be entitled to compensation through a Pennsylvania defective product claim if your child was seriously injured by a dangerous toy or other baby product. Consulting with a Philadelphia dangerous product lawyer can help you learn what legal options are available.

Manufacturers who produce dangerous toys could be held liable for the injuries your child has suffered. However, other parties could also be liable, including the designer, retailer, or anyone else who plays a role in the making or selling of a dangerous toy.

Here are 3 hazards that could lead to injuries and the filing of a defective product claim: 

• Lead-Based Paint - products that contain lead paint could lead to learning problems, behavioral difficulties and death;
• Cords or Strings - these can lead to strangulation, which can cause brain damage or death; and
• Small Pieces/Parts - toys that contain small pieces or parts can break off and become choking hazards.  

A number of toy products have been recalled over the years because of these hazards. Children can suffer serious, potentially life-threatening injuries as a result.

If you plan on filing a Pennsylvania defective product claim if a dangerous toy has caused injury to your child, you should first speak with a Philadelphia dangerous product lawyer.
