Products Liability

Products Liability Defense

Our attorneys strive for cost-effective, creative and personalized solutions to every legal challenge. Our clients expect no less.

Businesses must always be alert to the possibility that the products they manufacture, sell, or distribute may become the focus of a product liability claim. The cost of insurance, coupled with unpredictable jury verdicts, turn a product liability suit into an occurrence to be avoided whenever possible. At Mesisca Riley & Kreitenberg LLP, our attorneys help businesses pay attention to this frequently overlooked aspect of their operations. We help companies develop mechanisms to limit exposure to such lawsuits whenever possible. Contact our Los Angeles law firm to learn how we can help your business avoid product liability claims.

We help clients protect themselves against product liability lawsuits. Assisted by qualified experts, we identify and assess risks at the product development or manufacturing stage. We target our approach to the client's particular industry or site. Future problems can be limited through focused risk identification, an analysis of product safety, and a consideration of alternatives. Our services also include:

  • Preparing product manufacturing, distribution and indemnity agreements
  • Drafting of consumer warnings designed to avoid or shift client exposure to liability for defective products or components
  • Coordinating efforts when claims arise to locate all available evidence, to identify a chain of responsible parties, and to address issues of causation when products liability claims arise

If an event involving a client product occurs, our law firm helps the client preserve an untainted scene, safeguard evidence, and identify witnesses. We coordinate investigative efforts with governmental agencies. We create an approach for immediate claims management for implementation by the client. If a product defect incident eventually requires a personal injury defense, our litigators have the experience and knowledge to defend clients against such claims with persistence and skill.

Our clients have included manufacturers, furniture makers, and fabricators of construction materials. Our skilled litigators defend against product liability charges in state and federal courts and before state and federal administrative agencies.
