Dan O'Brien and his colleagues have very substantial experience representing individuals in New Jersey and Pennsylvania who have been seriously injured by unsafe or dangerous products. These products fall into two general categories:  consumer products and commercial/industrial products.

Consumer products include such things as:

• Baby strollers and cribs
  
• Toys
• Cars and trucks
• Sports equipment
• Exercise equipment
• Ladders
• Household tools
• Power tools
• Garden equipment
• Lawn tractors
• Riding lawnmowers
• Bicycles

Commercial and industrial products include such things as:

• Commercial printing machines
• Paper mills
• Paper winding machines
• Conveyers
• Pallet stacking machines
• Warehouse equipment
• Material handling equipment
• Lifts
• Farm tractors
• Harvesting equipment
• Commercial mowers and turf care equipment
• Bottling machinery and carton filling machinery

The list of things falling under the banner "Products" or "Dangerous Products" is virtually endless. Anything and everything that is manufactured, assembled and placed into the stream of commerce is considered a "product".

In both PA and NJ, a very specific body of law applies to dangerous products cases. Dan O'Brien and his colleagues have been handling these cases for many years. They have a track record of success in these cases that they are very proud of.

The defendants in dangerous products cases are often huge corporations. When an injured individual goes up against one of these corporations challenging the way that the corporation designs or manufactures their product, you can rest assured that the corporation is going to defend themselves with everything they have. It often takes an enormous investment of time, resources and money to succeed in a products liability case. Dan O'Brien, John Orlando and their colleagues have a track record of success going toe to toe with some of the biggest product manufacturers in the world. If you or a loved one has been injured by a product, either at home or in a work or industrial setting, please give us a call. We may be able to help you.
