MDAFP has successfully defended product liability actions for product manufacturers and distributors of both consumer and commercial products, including the representation of automotive industry clients defending design, manufacture and warranty claims. Much of our product liability litigation involves claims that a product caused injury or property damage due to negligence in product design, manufacturing, marketing or warnings. Examples of products we have defended include manufacturing equipment, recreational equipment (such as exercise machines, snowmobiles, jet skis, ATV’s), home and office apparatus, and much more. We are equally experienced in state and federal courts, as well as appellate courts. In addition, our Food, Drug, and Medical Device department has successfully defended manufacturers, distributors and retailers of prescription drug manufacturer’s, hip and knee implants, shoulder pain pumps, surgical devices, orthotic and electrical stimulation devices, emergency response monitoring systems, nutritional and dietary supplements, as well as investigational devices pending FDA approval.
