Dangerous and Defective Household Product Injury
Appliances | Space Heaters | Power Tools | Garden and Lawn Equipment | Unsafe Cleaning Products
Too often, manufacturers emphasize profits over safety, putting innocent lives at stake. When manufacturing defects, design defects and other product defects cause or contribute to an accident, resulting in serious injuries or fatalities, the manufacturer, engineer, distributor or other responsible party may be held financially accountable for the damages.

We have represented personal injury victims in the greater Philadelphia area and the Lehigh Valley since 1967. The hallmark of our practice is our commitment to personal service and attention.
