Products Liability Claims
The Southwest Louisiana product liability attorneys of Stutes & Lavergne represent both consumers and workers who have been seriously injured by unsafe or defective tools, equipment, or appliances. Contact us in Lake Charles for a free consultation on your claim.
If you have been injured at work, we can explore the possibility of a third-party negligence suit against the manufacturer or distributor of industrial machinery, tools, or equipment, even while we pursue a workers' compensation claim to make up for lost income and the costs of your medical treatment and rehabilitation. We represent workers in the oil and gas industry, logging industry, lumber and paper mill workers, and petrochemical employees.
We also represent consumers, motorists, and medical patients with personal injury or wrongful death claims under the Louisiana Products Liability Act concerning situations such as:
-
Unsafe or defective recreational vehicles including ATVs and three-wheelers
-
Seat belts, air bags, impact sensors, tires, brakes, and other automotive safety component failure resulting in
car accidents
-
Medical procedures involving dangerous or defective prostheses or implants
-
Dangerous or defective household appliances or shop tools
With the aid of fully credentialed forensic experts, we make a thorough examination of all of the facts pertinent to your products liability claim and make sure you fully understand your legal rights and alternatives. If trial of your claim proves necessary, we make a clear and fully documented presentation of the evidence relating to both the defendant's liability and the full extent of your losses.
