Defective Products

Unsafe products and dangerous drugs are responsible for an alarming number of injuries and illnesses every year in Atlanta and the rest of the country. The defective products attorneys of Billips & Benjamin, LLP believe that manufacturers and distributors have a responsibility to provide safe and effective products. Additionally, we believe that they must describe all risks associated with their products and provide complete instructions regarding product use.

Defective products may cause injury for a number of reasons; the manufacturer may have failed to properly test the product's safety, included inadequate instructions and warnings, or falsely advertised the product's capabilities.

In the case of defective drugs, the company manufacturing the drug may not have completed sufficient research to determine any dangerous side effects. Recently, drug companies have been found liable for advertising their drug for use in conditions not approved by the FDA. If a patient is prescribed a drug based on this faulty information, serious illness or even death might occur.

If you have been injured due to the negligence of a product manufacturer or distributor and you live in or near Atlanta, the defective products attorneys of Billips & Benjamin, LLP can help you to make sense of what can be an overwhelmingly confusing experience. We can determine the responsibilities of the manufacturer, as well as whether your injuries could have been avoided if the manufacturer had taken appropriate steps.
